If you work really hard, you might be Senior Secretary.
I originally read this as "Señor Secretary" and had to do a double-take.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I get testy with Southerners who make blanket statements about New Yorkers,
Hey! Ginger's met my dad!
Heh, I was just in Pensacola with the southern branch of the family, and the inevitable (no, really, it is inevitable in this group) blanket statement about yankees came up, but a firm, "Hey, now..." from yankee me cut 'em all off at the pass. Sometimes, they forget. I remind them.

Valuable for everyone, sometimes.
For that matter, I get testy with Southerners who make blanket statements about New Yorkers, when I have probably been helped by more nice strangers in New York than any other city.
One of my friends in college had wanted to apply to Bryn Mawr, but her parents wouldn't let her, because they said the North was evil. (I never quite figured out what definition of "evil" would include suburban Pennsylvania but not New Orleans.) Also, a bunch of people who told me that they'd never live in New York, because it was too dangerous. (But again, willing to live in New Orleans? I like New Orleans, but within the four years I was there, several students at my university were murdered.) But on the other hand, there were plenty of comments about the South from my friends back home.
Having admitted this, I feel that my assertion that, e.g., Alex Rodriguez occasionally reaches for the funyuns and chows down baby brains instead, will be taken as a reasoned opinion, rather that as a stupid criticism.
Dude, A-Rod totally eats baby brains for breakfast when he's not munching on freshly minted millions. He's eeeeeeeeeeeeeevil.
I'm going to keep making fun of tourists anywhere, though. Not the good tourists. The bad ones. That travel in mobs.
There is someone in the nearby apartments who sleeps in the early evenings. How do I know? I can hear snores. Loud loud LOUD snores. They almost echo. It is hilarious.
Well, tourists sure. Hey, you know what? Since moving to Delaware from DC? Not so much dealing with tourists. Kind of nice, that.
Poor tourists. It's not easy.
I haven't had any good tourist mocking since Prague in spring. My my my, there was so much material there.
No tourist-mocking in Kansas City. We think furriners are cool.
Does anyone know if I can watch Alias on my computer? I have NO TV reception at all -- and no cable.
Stupid fiscal responsibility.
