RANCH DRESSING

The digitized LOS ANGELES TIMES is through the end of 1966, and there's no
"ranch dressing." Here it is in another western newspaper in 1966.

MISC.

"WINDY CITY" IS PLAGIARIZED--My ADS-L post has not appeared in about three
hours. If anybody wants it, I guess I'll e-mail it to those I haven't done so
already. The new ENCYCLOPEDIA OF CHICAGO is out, and my (old) work appears under
someone else's name.

STOP BEATING YOUR WIFE--Someone at www.wordorigins.org traced this to 1905.
No one pointed out that I'd traced it to 1901. No one?

CUBAN SANDWICHES & ELENA RUTH--The (new?) Mambi Lounge, on Second Avenue and
East 50th Street, declares itself "Cuban Sandwich Specialists." It serves an
"Elena Ruth"--usually called "Elena Ruiz." That's turkey, cream cheese, and
jelly! A "Manhattan Sandwich" is ham, swiss cheese, turkey, bacon, lettuce and
tomato.
