The allure of a perfect temp job
John Grindrod Guest columnist

While surely not urgent news, I do tend to share such banalities for reasons I can’t quite explain.
At any rate, in her return text, she said something both brief and humorous, as in, “Good luck.” However, after I got done chuckling, I realized when it comes to buying clothing, especially unementionables, guys really do need some luck.
