Flying might not be all it’s cracked up to be.

You may want to check out this week’s NY Time’s Week In Review.

Basically, the article points out that among all the jokes and innuendos the people on the street are making about wayward love lives of our politicians, there lies a small fear that perhaps we, with our much more prosaic sex lives, are somehow deficient or missing out on something. Hogwash. Just a reminder: If the statistic is that 35% of men have had affairs and 25% of women…THEN it stands to reason that 65% of men and 75% of women have never had an affair AND it stands to reason that AT ANY GIVEN TIME 95% of everyone is not having an affair! So stand tall all of you monogamous, happily partnered friends — there is nothing to fear but fear itself!
