  1. Am saying, you make your theory and then take select people you know to fit it. Not a random sample of ‘liberals’ or ‘conservatives’ (which are also very subjective terms ).
    So easy to fit your theory with whomever you choose as your examples.
    And people fit more along a continuum rather than certain camps. Maybe one area of country or region tilts bit more one way than other….but few areas as so predominate that
    one would be a ‘political minority’.
    Are you suggesting that ‘conservatives’ be given special protections by law in ParkSlope? 🙂

  2. PLUSAs, here’s the gathering update from HOTD. For those planning on coming to the Duplex on April 1st, please lemme know how Wednesday, March 31st works instead — favorite piano player/singer on Wednesday (and no bimbo comediennes that night!!).

    “Cgar,

    Is an impromptu an OT thing?
    If so, how does one get invited?”

    Pigeon, not at all! Please come join us! Email me at carrollgardened AT gmail DOT com.

    We’re having an impromptu (which Snappy INSISTS on calling an “unofficial” gathering at the Duplex in the West Village on April 1st, though we’re going to switch to Wednesday the 31st if those planning to go on the 1st can still make it.)

    And then our big Spring CobbleSnaps spend-your-tax-refund gathering, which we’ll post in the Forum, is on Thursday, April 22nd at Franklin Park in Crown Heights.

  3. I don’t know how to add an accent mark to a letter to write expozay rather than expose. And I think is horrible mean thing to say that is bad for me and society and you have some sort of conspiracy going on to take over my freedoms and subjugate all of humanity for your own selfish evil interest, Cgar.

  4. Did you not reference Fatal Attraction?

    “”I will NOT be ignored, bxgrl!” — Fatal Attraction

    Do you really want to come home and find “something” boiling in a large pot on the stove???”

    Really CGar! Please buy a copy of The Elements of Style and read it cover to cover. As for insulting CDog? NEVER!! You’re another story entirely. If you want that watch you had better behave (Did you want the black strap or the brown?)

  5. Sorry Lethacal,
    sounds like lot of projecting, very subjective, and wishful thinking. Too easy to formulate a supposition , and then think of examples to fit your theory.

    I have no idea what you are saying. What is the wishful thinking and to what supposition do you object? Do you disagree with my observation about those in the political minority of any particular area? Be more clear.

  6. My cats follow me around all day – whatever I’m doing they try to help. And they haven’t read the book about 85% of their time is spent sleeping – they sleep about 15%. They insist on playing retrieval games every morning as I try to read the paper. They greet me at the door when I come home begging to be stroked. Definitely wonderful & fun companions.
    Mind you, I like dogs too but they’re so much hassle in the city.
