...modified the menu so that we wouldn't lose an item, but rearrange the workload," he says. "You won't see the healthy grinder and the Rueben sandwich together...
...immediate attention. She recorded five albums for four different labels, weaving torch, twang, swing and blues into genre-crossing numbers that were occasionally brilliant but often jarring. None connected with mainstream buyers. So in 1998 Lynne's exile took her to Palm Springs, Calif., where freedom from the industry grinder gave her room to find her voice. The songs that became I Am sound liberated, loose and confident. "I had given it all up," says, Lynne, 31, "so I wasn't scared of much. I got more comfortable with my writing."

A Bostonian might not say "cah" any more - for car - but they will say potato puff for tater tot. Sprinkles will be jimmies. And they'll use terms like "triple-decker" and "grinder," which don't really appear outside of the region. Vaux says he could probably identify where a person is from, by asking under ten questions regarding such idiosyncracies in language. He explains that one of the main reasons the world's languages vary so widely involves the way in which children...
