We've all got time enough to cry

Neighborhood restaurant Warszawa, which is one of about two Polish restaurants in all of Greater Los Angeles, used to advertise its "Is Anybody Really Happy Hour?"

At least that's a funny name, although the one time we went to Is Anybody Really Happy Hour, it didn't excite me enough for me to want to drown my sorrows there on a regular basis. (However, Warszawa is not bad for a nice dinner: to celebrate Easter, for example.)

Now they have changed the sign to "Is Everybody Really Happy Hour?"! That barely even makes sense... or maybe it carries a tinge of Brave New World dystopia.

Every Hottentot and every Eskimo

Everyone I know gets on NPR sooner or later. O'Briens regular Dileep Rao was randomly selected from 1600 applicants to play the Sunday puzzle with Will Shortz!
