No Name Coffee House? There are "No Name" Bars, "No Name" philosophers (well, at least no name has survived), "NO NO! DON'T Name" anon. people on the net. In this case, the occupants of the Hill Top House could be the unnamed co-respondants in the story of Modern Marxism. Things considered, "No name" is the most common name in the history books: "the people", "they", "the natives", "lost in battle." That would make them the literary proletariat.

Over here in Texasland the laws are pretty lax about what you can put on top of a pizza delivery car. Why not a snow-job? That is a colloquialism for a cover-up, an attempt, whether successful or not, to conceal evidence of wrongdoing, error, incompetence or other embarrassing information. In a passive cover-up information is simply not provided; in an active cover-up deception is used.

The expression is usually applied to people in positions of authority who abuse their power to avoid or silence criticism or to deflect guilt of wrongdoing. Those who initiate a cover up (or their allies) may be responsible for a misdeed, a breach of trust or duty or a crime. While the terms are often used interchangeably, cover-up involves withholding incriminatory evidence, while whitewash involves releasing misleading evidence.

There are several kinds of pizza delivery: special tax exemptions for people who live on top of the social hill, extra imitation cheese for those in the middle, and recycled pizza for the birds.
