“I had a pied a terre looking over the Battery, and was there having breakfast on 9/11.”
First time I ever saw “pied a terre” used on FR. Are you a French writer?
No. But I don’t know what else to call an apartment you use part of the time. We live in Vermont, and I commuted to an apartment in NYC for many years. Unless the weather was really bad, I took the train back up to Vermont every weekend, to be with the wife and kids. I taught at NYU, and they gave me a good price on the rental.

That’s cool. You read like a swell fellow.
“But I don’t know what else to call an apartment you use part of the time.”
We called them safe houses.
Cheers.
A jihadi knows those words have no power over him. He doesn’t care if anyone thinks he’s a coward. Anyone that matters to him doesn’t care if others think he’s a coward. The jihadi knows the authorities’ empty words are for our ears, not his. As long as he can accomplish his task and words are all that are in his way, he’ll act and have his way.

And storm Andersen’s and confiscate all the pea soup.
