[The Hankster says] I guess he didn't invent it, just lent his name to it. I bet some sort of fast food already existed. But it would be many years to come, before the ultimate incarnation , the Dagwood.

[The Hankster says] For your résumé., you can use Domestic Engineer. Don't laugh. I pumped gas at a service station and was termed a Driveway Salesman.
Get ready and get rid of them. Tomorrow is 'Cliché Day'. From Wikipedia: 'A cliché or cliche is an expression, idea, or element of an artistic work which has become overused to the point of losing its original meaning or effect, even to the point of being trite or irritating, especially when at some earlier time it was considered meaningful or novel'.
[The Hankster says] Tomorrow is your 'Be boring for free' card. Get them all out of your system.
Tomorrow is 'Election Day'. This is the General or Mid-term elections and state elections.
[The Hankster says] Don't be a weak link in the chain of freedom: 'A chain is only as strong as its weakest link'. Don't pass your voting buck: 'The buck stops here'.
Speak up with your vote: 'The squeaky wheel gets the grease'. It takes you as well: 'It takes all kinds'. Not voting and then complaining is: 'Like closing the barn door after the horse escapes'. Plan for it now: 'He who hesitates is lost'. Hey, it's Cliché day, remember?

That obstacle, however, was removed by ratification of the Sixteenth Amendment on February 3, 1913'.
