Nix on words of three letters ending in x. Except for lex.

Looks like you’ve ventured into Lower Manhattan.

Your picture of the circle which evokes for you some Freudian reaction, reminds me of something: take some pix (a three letter non-word ending in "x") of manhole covers (um personhole.) Really. History. Some have, etched in, the names of the "WPA", or “PWA” (I get them confused) two of FDR's alphabet soup agencies, which I think were part of the NRA & off you go into Con Law…. Lex.

Sex takes the Pax out of Lux.

Why should I not expect to see words on eyeshadow containers? Am I just missing the point again?

Ann Althouse ayon kay ...

Madison Man: It's not on the container. It's built into the substance of the eyeshadow. Plus, it's not the brand name. It's extraneous expression.

Sweetness and light.

Mr. Forward ayon kay ...

A Pox on both your houses but not your Althouse.
