Kergistan, is how it's pronounced, I think.
Dear client,
I do not know what to tell you when you call and say, "Someone told me to call this number." I do not know with whom you wish to speak or what service you need. Also, this number rings to everyone's office. Please, in the future, listen to the message someone so thoughtfully left for you (and no, I don't believe you that they didn't leave one) and then call when you know who and why you are calling.
Thank you,
Admin.
PS That's Admin NOT A FUCKING RECEPTIONIST!
I do not know what to tell you when you call and say, "Someone told me to call this number."
Ah, this reminds me of when I was a receptionist back in the heyday of pagers. "Someone paged me." Um, do you have any idea who? "No. They called from this number." Yeah, sorry, this is the number for a hundred people. No clue? "Who paged me?"
Question: what do you call a long opiniony piece from the NYTimes magazine? Not an article, right? Because it's not news? "Piece" is the other thing I can think of, but that sounds weird to me.
A feature article, maybe?
Essay? Critical Essay? Personal Essay?
Jesse, how about "column"?
It's bigger than a column/op-ed, is the thing. I don't know what it looked like in the actual magazine, but the printout is 11 pages. I think "essay" is the way to go.
For Xmas my husband gave me a box, with a hole cut in it, and inside were pictures of Dick Cavett, Dick Van Dyke, Dick Van Patten, Moby Dick, etc.
That is most awesome.
I have to remember to send the link to my parents, once my father has the new computer up and running.
Is your dad's name Dick?
I still have to show that to my household. My brother and his wife mentioned it Christmas Eve, but I couldn't explain to my family or sister because my parents would not have been pleased. Bro and I laughed though.
