CHARM OFFENSIVE

   George Will's Sunday column mentions that President Bush is putting on a "charm offensive."  This has been much used in recent weeks, but it goes back some years.
   Has anybody noted it?

FOUR-PEAT

   Today's New York Post discusses a possible New York Yankees "four-peat."  As in, one more than a "three-peat" and two more than a "repeat."  This hasn't been used often (not too many circumstances of a three-time champion), and it sounds ridiculous each time.

ADS-L ARCHIVES

   Gareth Branwyn's Jargon Watch includes the term "360-Degree Feedback."  I'm sure I posted that here on ADS-L.
   I went to the recent archives, and I get the old archives.
   I can't get to my work.
   Oh joy.
