So you're telling me that cutting tariffs leads to lower prices? Fascinating.

Luchow's Restaurant on East 14th Street, NYC, in the '40s. My apartment was directly across the street. I ate there in 1982, soon before it closed permanently. As I recall, dinner was of the traditional hearty German variety.

Your brain says Europe, but it's actually Ohio. This is the Church of Our Lady, Queen of the Most Holy Rosary Cathedral in Toledo.

What kind of "successful" real estate developer demolishes a building without a permit, and without having the funds secured for the new building - and then tries to get the public to pay for it.

Can reporters stop using the word deal? It’s an agreement, a settlement, a treaty, an understanding, an MOU etc. Using the word deal is accepting his simple-minded TV game-show framing and contributes to the bogus drama he is trying to create.

Never stop saying "dozen" and "half dozen". Never stop using the word you read in an old novella. Never stop using your regional jargon. Don't succumb to an internationalized English stripped of its whimsy and romanticism in the name of streamlining global commerce.
Anon Opin.@anon_opin

I don't understand the point of using the term "dozen". It means 12, so just say 12? It's even worse when people say or type "half a dozen". Just say 6 or six.
