ExTex – Get a different vac. I did work for Hoover years ago & they told me they built in an echo chamber because housewives perceived quiet machines as not powerful enough. I told them I’d pay extra for noise damping. Nowadays there are fairly quiet ones.
I don’t know about the etiquette but running a vac at that hour sounds as if you need a mental health check.

went to 24 Prince last night and thought it was ok, I got the downtown salad and wasn’t blown away. I hate when you order a salad and they put oil/vinegar on the side in a cup. I guess I expect the salad to come already tossed in the dressing so it’s tasty – it’s hard to then pour said dressing on the salad that arrives in a plate, it’s not mixed well enough at that point, you know?
my friend’s dish was better
Dave, trust me on this one! Besides, I’ve decided I’m off the market 🙂
Expert…I sometimes vacuum at 3am, but I have no real neighbors and no direct shared walls. I think before 8am on weekday and maybe 10 on a weekend may be a no-no.
What would be a good, not-too-expensive Midtown lunch place for the following crowd of college friends?
a) one Orthodox Jewish lawyer
b) one non-Orthodox Jewish lawyer
c) one devout Catholic journalist
d) one lapsed Catholic journalist
e) one WASP Princeton PhD student
f) one PLUSA
I didn’t watch the press conference…too tired. What was the gist of it?

it’s a kosher restraunt right here in the Sony Plaza – it’s sorta fancy – 55th and Madison!
Six, according to the commercials, McDonalds makes everyone smile 🙂

Funny that the two Jews on your list are lawyers. Is the Orthodox Jew strickly kosher or would he eat salads, etc. in a non-kosher place?
