Remember this one from our high school days?
What's the definition of a nomad?
An even tempered Italian. - "I'm-a no mad."
The reason I didn't post last night was because we went to somebody's house for dinner and didn't get back in time. My previous post was not intended to be a personal attack on Uncle Ken anyway. Some of it was just a difference of opinion, but the part about "if they ever reach the border" was a factual discrepancy to which I felt constrained to respond. Maybe Trump did blow this Caravan thing out of proportion, but I think it would have been a pretty big deal anyway. Call me "paranoid", but I think that thousands of people advancing on a national border with the declared intention of forcing their was across it is a big deal. The situation does seem to have simmered down lately, either that or the news cycle has just moved on to other things, but I don't think it's over yet. Last I heard there were still thousands camped along the border. Who knows what they might do?
I think that the "less is more" argument is based on a poor choice of words. If the statement had been something like, "Sometimes less is better than more." there would have been nothing to argue about.
As for the Great Sandwich Debate, I can't seem to get interested in it, but that doesn't mean my esteemed colleagues shouldn't discuss it.
I don't get the point of the "whiskey sour" story, but I have never tended bar and I don't drink cocktails. I have heard that there is something called a "champagne cocktail" which, I suppose, is not the same thing as just ordering a glass of champagne. Is the whiskey sour cocktail something like that?
