...middle schools, and 83 percent of elementary schools have either vending machines or snack bars that offer primarily unhealthy snacks. This is because many schools and large food and beverage producers, like Coca-Cola and Pepsi, have reached agreements by which both parties profit when schools sell a particular company’s brands. The health of our schoolchildren, however, is far too high a price to pay for increased school revenue. Just as it would be ludicrous for high schools to sell cigarettes during lunch, it is ridiculous that 83 percent of elementary schools are making a profit...
...whole, the songs are extremely witty. The main cast and the ensemble perform them with aplomb, albeit with a style that is slightly over-dependent on kick-line dancing. A particular standout is Polk’s Ko-Ko, whose every emotion plays itself out exaggeratedly across his face in complete keeping with the play’s nature.

...where does this “itch” come from? One particular bout broke out in the early 20th century, when many graduates—often from Oxbridge—found themselves with the means to travel more cheaply and safely than before. Somewhat averse to joining the London set, banking and lawyering their way through the gilded age (sound familiar?), and terrified of being domesticated by modern life, they left England to become romantic heroes in their own right. Along the way they mutated into state spies, aviators, and colonial rebels...
