I'm going to a wedding in Harlem this weekend. Anything I should check out while I'm there?

Excuse me, but "proactive" and "paradigm"? Aren't these just buzzwords that dumb people use to sound important? Not that I'm accusing you of anything like that.

And I realize you think $10 for mac and cheese is really super expensive. But remember, you live in the middle of nowhere, where rents are like $5 a square foot. So the overhead (among other things) at whatever strip mall restaurant you get mac and cheese (and pardon me for assuming you may actually buy it instead of preparing it yourself for $.85 a serving) is substantially lower. But you knew this already, of course.

I actually don't ever buy stuff like mac n' cheese in restaurants, because I just can't bring myself to pay that much for something that is so cheap and easy to make at home, and make much, much, better than almost anywhere else. It's the same hangup that keeps me from paying $3.50 for a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

I hear the restaurants there are no different from those anywhere else in the city.

I'm white people and I wouldn't do that in a million years. It's always about race with you Black folks, isn't it?

$3.50 for a pb&j? That's just crazy talk!

Wonk has probably been to Stanley's Kitchen & Tap here in the city. Home style southern cooking. Stanley's has $8 toasted mac and cheese, and I think it's underpriced. It's outstanding.

Moreover, Stanley's has a bottle of whiskey at the bar that anyone can drink for free. It's Kesslers - there's a reason it's free. They also serve FREE mashed potatoes at midnight. Plus, Frenchy from Goodfellas hangs out there.

You may not listen to howard stern, but Daniel Carver from the Ku Klux Klan would beg to differ. You are the devil. I am white people and I do stuff like that two or three times a week, on my lunch hour.

At least you don't need to get vaccinated, unlike a trip to a NASCAR race (see item 5, skip the first 4)

If you brought your lunch you could control your caloric intake and save money. Because it's foolish for support staff to spend the same amount on food as the attorneys unless it's after hours and the firm is going to reimburse you.
