E.B. White told us that nouns & verbs do the heavy lifting, so it’s appropriate that the Dear Leader we have now prefers adjectives and adverbs, plus repeating those adjectives and adverbs for so-called emphasis, with some decisive hand-gestures thrown-in. Very legal & very cool! <\/p>\n
Anyway, we remind you that real authority, real O.G. Original Gangster Authority, is neither loud nor gesticulating; it uses the nouns & verbs, and the adverbs and adjectives are hard to find. Moreover, the hand-waving, literal hand-waving and figurative hand-waving, disappears. You think Don Vito Corleone would abuse adjectives and adverbs and hand-gestures? Never! As well, there was that scene in the Godfather<\/em> films where the Meyer Lansky-based character is just sitting there in front of his TV, eating off a tray the tuna-fish sandwich his wife made him.

Pierce describes the demeanor of Special Prosecutor Rob’t. S. Mueller: ‘But Robert Mueller, with no expression on his face, reaches across his desk for another file…’<\/p>\n Thank you!<\/p>\n Laurel 4 Del Mar 4 (Low-Priced Overlay of the Day) Warm, fast & firm for now in New Orleans, but the heavy rains are coming to spoil the weekend. But we have today, Friday, and Fair Grounds 1<\/strong>, 3<\/strong>, 6<\/strong> & 7<\/strong> appear evenly matched, with the public-choice in each probably not as wholesome as the low odds suggest; take a chance on modest overlays, even. Absent the well-regarded firsters in Race 4<\/strong>, the top experienced BestLine choice has a 49.0pc probability of winning. OK.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" E.B.
