Today, we had no children. I would like to make this sum a

Don McLean was a student at Iona University in the mid-sixties and performed at small clubs/bars in the metro NY area. Folk music was the āthingā at the time and he was very good. It was āAmerican Pieā that brought his writing talents to the forefront and pushed his popularity to the forefront.

When you pay me a writer's salary, I'll let you know.
It's not the understanding that's the problem, it's the possible misinterpretation or the fact that there is any possible ambiguity. Headlines tend to leave out words that would make the meaning perfectly clear.
Sorry, weāre not hiring at this time! Headlines, I always thought, just give us enough info to make us want moreā¦to turn to āpage 10 for the full storyāā¦and theyāre not always clear.
Thereās a famous newspaper headline from the 30s on the day after pitching great Dizzy Dean was hit in the head by a line drive he couldnāt avoid:
XRAYS OF DEANāS HEAD SHOW NOTHING!

I call it an advertising choice. It comes to 8.5 million per year to give the name a lot of national exposure. How much would similar exposure through national TV and print ads cost over 20 years? Where they make their goods is an entirely separate issue, a valid one that applies to many U.S. companies.
I agree but I do wonder how much impact this type of advertising has on sales of Leviās jeans. Do people buy a particular brand because they recall seeing the Levi on the stadium or is it a more subliminal connection? I own a few pairs of jeans but Iād have to check the labels to identify the brand. I think I bought them based on quality, fit, and price. If I were to buy a new pair, might my brain push me to the Leviās section because I read this post and took the time to comment?

In todays, newspaper -
"Maya Gold Foundation offers youth mental health first aid training"
This sounds like they're training kids to give mental health counseling.
Actually, they're training adults to be able to counsel kids.
I understood it. How would you word it?

Casablanca is in my top 20, along with The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, Maltese Falcon and the African Queen. All outstanding Bogie flicks! One of my favorite scenes of all time is Bogie's chutzpah in The Treasure of the Sierra Madre when he, a lone Yank in Mexico, says to the bandidos ... "Where's your badges? You need badges."
I think the reply from the Bandido is even more famous (although itās usually mis-quoted):
Gold Hat: Badges? We ain't got no badges. We don't need no badges. I don't have to show you any stinking badges.
