It isn’t often that I get to say something nice about Orin Hatch, but the bill he’s pushing asking for more accountability on the supplement industry is a good thing. It’s especially brave of him considering his original work pushing to keep oversight away from these products…well, it’s easier now that the supplement companies are backing the bill too, but it’s still good legislation.

Thanks to a link at Lindsayism (about a short cute article by David Cross) I’m reading New York Magazine’s The Urban Etiquette Handbook and I’m really bothered by this part:

Who pays the bill on a date?
The asker pays, unless the woman does the asking—then the man should pay. … (For same-sex couples, the asker really does pay.)

WTF?!? What happened to equality? In New York, misogynism still rules unless your gay.

—of course, I always pay, but I stand up for a man’s right not to pay if the woman asked him out.—
