"What kind of magical sunshine and lollipop world do you live in? Because you need to be medicated."-SFist

What are the names of some large hospitals known for surgery in Kings, Queens, and Richmond counties. We are working on a grant to train some NYC nurses to be surgical first assistants and we need some letters of agreement from hospitals.

I had my surgery at Long Island College Hospital (which is in Brooklyn).

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Who do you think is being slammed in that article, bon? (IOW, no I don't think it sounds like a slam.)

The firm, who are made to appear as if they're seeking a million dollar payday for getting hundred dollar checks for battered immigrants.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

The firm, who are made to appear as if they're seeking a million dollar payday for getting hundred-dollar checks for battered immigrants.

Yeah, that's kind of how I read it.

Then again, I read "suits" as clothing, not a legal proceeding.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I read "battered" as cooking.

And "payday" as candy.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The firm, who are made to appear as if they're seeking a million dollar payday for getting hundred dollar checks for battered immigrants.

I guess it depends on how big the class is, but really I read it as "worked for free so far but now may get paid."

Megan Walker - the tape player is for me to use with language tapes, very short term. Thank you for the offer anyhoo, and thank you for the congrats.

You got a tape player, didn't you msbelle? Because I have a Walkman that I keep around only because it has a radio. (In case of power failures.)

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I'm working on a homework assignment and one of the questions is "What do people need to know in order to be a good reader?"

I have no idea how to articulate what I do when I read. So, I'm asking the hivemind. What are your thoughts? What do you need to know in order to be a good reader?
