Last night I dreamt that E and I took Andrew to ManRay. It wasn't the "new" spot, either. It was just ManRay, though it didn't look quite the same. The layout was different.

A Tale of Two Additions" or "Great Expansions". Tuesday, July 21, 2009. The Many Faces of Alexandra. Earlier this month, we visited family in NY. Auntie Carrie came over for a few hours and brought her camera. She captured Alexandra's many facial expressions perfectly. The only one missing is with her tongue hanging out. That's a constant face now that Alexandra has two teeth. Go baby go! Get the flash player here: http:/ www.adobe.com/flashplayer. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Follow me on Twitter.

Regularize your plurals - cannylinguist. Apr 23rd, 2004 11:28 pm. Bill Poser has an entry. At Language Log discussing creative pluralizations of borrowings from a foreign language with which the writer seems to have just a passing acquaintance.
