This story about the house that Charles Schumer, Dick Durbin, Bill Delahunt, and George Miller share on Capital Hill was incredibly funny-- too funny to blockquote effectively.

My girlfriend thinks the article's frame is gendered-- who can imagine the same sort of "boys will be boys," frat-house profile if Nancy Pelosi and Barbara Boxer lived together? I think it may be the subjects rather than the frame; let me know if Pelosi and Boxer ever start eating out of fast food cartons and sleeping on the living room couch in their underwear.
