It’s fixed...

the sign doesn’t say “Mr Repair it” or “Mr Good as New”.

It is my 1st gift of choice for every bridal shower I am invited to attend. I am on my 2nd copy as my original was worn to tatters. When my husband’s grandmother passed away her pristine copy was one of the things I asked if I could have.

I picked up a 1943 version of “The Joy of Cooking at a garage sale when I was in my teens because it was the favorite cookbook for everyone in my family and I wanted to have a copy for my own home. It is still the most used cookbook I have in my kitchen and for now is still holding together quite well. The cookbook is actually quite a bit older than me!

"I can't"

All too true. Nevertheless, none of them learned when they were young, and they refuse to learn now. By the way, they're all strong liberals. Might have something or nothing to do with it.

I thought it was funny that so many of the people on this thread seem to think that it was an article about bad grammar and bad job applicants because they were too lazy to actually read the article.
