May the Force be with you too. (mixing me sagas, Oi know, but wottheheck)<br /><br />As for emplane -- I didn't realize it was a real word! I was looking for a counterpart to 'embark' and reasoned that 'bark' referred to a ship and therefore 'emplane' should mean a similar activity involving an aircraft. Didn't mean to be intransitive ...<br /><br />And thank you too Ambrosial for your good wishes! I AM njoing the Big Pomegranate (I am told that the Biblical apple was only ever an 'apple' -- i.e., there is no evidence that the fruit of the tree of knowledge was what we would recognize today as an actual apple. I believe this leaves me free to refer to NYC by the name of whatever fruit I wish, so long as I don't try to impose my views on others. We like to be fair and liberal, after all), thanx. Before this I've only ever spent a night or two in Manhattan, and though that was better than nothing, I didn't have the leisure to stop and look and listen to the city around me.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06527703558961054608noreply@blogger.com
