Willow ,'Never Leave Me'
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 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.
op-ed
commentary
A feature article, maybe?
Essay? Critical Essay? Personal Essay?
Thanks, y'all.
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.
Is your dad's name Dick?
Ha! No. We just couldn't stop laughing about it, and the parents hadn't seen it yet.
