Having it all

In this month's The Atlantic, Anne-Marie Slaughter considers "Why Women Still Can't Have it All."  I haven't read the complete article, but I have read portions of it here.  I will likely write a longer post about this in the next few days, but for now I want to say that the idea of having it all is a bit absurd, at least to me.  I find this phrase as irksome as the phrase "achieving a balance."
