The ones that care are Republican incumbents who signed Grover's pledge and fear having it waved in their faces by teabaggner primary opponents, such as those assholes in MO and IN, who later went on to lose because they're not too up-to-date on lady issues.

Refers to small towns along rail lines. Some had water tanks where the steam locomotives could refill. Thus the train only stopped there when it needed water.

Those thoughts were the purest ever. Just plain old testosterone-poisoned lust for, say, Christie __________, who had miraculously acquired boobs before the other girls, or seemed to have; it's not like you were ever going to find out, as she was "cool" and you were not.

Those thoughts were untainted by intimations of future tuition, spousal maintenance, leaky roofs, old cars that have to have their windshields scraped on winter mornings before you go to work in the crappy cubicle and then go to meetings and hear the company's new whiz-boy sales expert talk about "continuous improvement" and "exceeding customers' expectations."

All that lay ahead. Now, in your tubular-steel and plywood junior high desk in Social Studies class, you steal glances at Christie and wonder if your hard-on will dissipate before you have to change for gym class.

This is purity. It is beautiful.
