Then you’ve never had a real cheesesteak, because there’s no way you last sentence is true.

Yes, yes, I have. The last one was awful. The onions were even grilled.

Well in my opinion I like grilled onions! Born and raised in Philly. ( dp from pp)

The onions should be fried.

I'm the pp. Grilled or fried it is all good. Btw, we are all different so when you say things like "the onions should be fried" I have to say that is pretty arrogant to think we all have to eat and like the same things!

Maybe PP meant “fried” when he said “grilled”?

We can all agree that there should never be raw onions.

Swiss, provolone or whiz?

He was in the central office and when the administrator of the agency (I don't remember the exact titles) came into the room everyone stood up. Just very formal business manners.

I also had some friends who worked for the Pew Charitable trusts before the DC office opened (so many years ago? More than a decade?) and they also said Pew was very very formal and hierarchical. (but the head of the org was kinda a weirdo and like that so not sure if it was Philly or her).

But for all their wiz wit and wooder and iggles, there's an old school formality to the upper crust.

It’s Haverford.

Haverford is the Main Line and very nice.

Havertown is nearby but is more ordinary, although with good schools.

Unless I'm missing something?
