Oh...that email. I'll take a pass on that search as it may read "Yiddish slurs yielded no results - did you mean 'Neurotic jew?'" Don't slam the Gothamist posts as lame, though - it's not their fault we're forced to conduct our business in a public forum. The attention to a two day old Nor'easter post must be puzzling, though.

ha, i meant in my email. in the folder that i've been trying to bring myself to delete for a little while now. yes, i'm sure we're generating tons of traffic. And in the process vaulting these lame posts to 'most commented,' in a sanjaya malakar kinda way.

"Yiddish slur" yields no results in old emails, so don't know where to look. Do you think Gothamist readers are puzzled? Following along to see what happens next? Annoyed?

Oh, you have access to it, guess that's why I assumed.

Don't get your reference, actually. But look at you with your yiddish spelling! Nicely done - your Jewish education continues.

I know, just touching on an old email, which I'm sure you realize. But they're not spelled the same: fa-misht. Maybe i've been hanging out with that crowd too much. Oh, I thought you jazzed up that newsletter thing with html.

Yiddish slur? Famished? Two meanings, the one above in regular old English. There's no slur, and I certainly would be careful about using one in a public space, what with this Imus debacle. Usage: You must be famished about the yiddish slur because you're famished. Figs and manchego will cure that, and you won't be famished or famished any more. I'M not up to that italic level, that's for sure. If I was that I'M would be italicized.

No, but someone will get figs and manchego now. And that's not nice--just cause you're out 3k, you don't need to go tossing around yiddish slurs at people. Puh-lease, I was up to that italic level long ago. You were/are beyond that, too, as I recall.

That IS good karma, and you deserve it for returning that item to its rightful shelf, which I fully support. And shopping in the middle of a nor'easter? Sounds like a famished person will get a manchego omelette in the morn. Nice use of italics! Some things have been learned...

This nor'easter was weak until 8 minutes ago, right as I walked in the door with groceries. Awesome karma I think because I walked across the store out of guilt to put an unwanted grocery item back in the correct spot.

The Nor'easter of 2007 must be affecting some kind of proxy whatsit.

Oy vey. That's an itchy trigger finger. What's up with posts not posting for three hours? Good thing it's such a thoughtful and insightful post - hopefully you get something new out of it after every reading.

Posting is finicky today, no? Give yourself some credit. I'm sure your omelette can be pretty satisfying for a famished person in the morning.

Make, yes. Good, no.

I know for a FACT you can make an omelette!

Ah, a rainy day manchego omelette sounds great! I just can't make it.

Hey double poster. Asiago? I prefer manchego. Maybe you should make your own.

Too rainy even for a bloody and an asiago omelette.

David Dinkins was mayor in 1992. Enough said.

So where this Noreaster? It seems pretty calm outside.

Your link to the NYT in 92 is a link to a TimesSelect article. Can you fix it (do a printable view and link to that instead or just quote it)?
