From the Department of Too Much Information came a press release Monday night from Nevada Gov. Brian Sandoval announcing a state dinner for senior government officials and high administration staffers. I get it: Unlike the Gov. Gibbons, Gov.

It was not necessary to include in a NEWS release that those in attendance – while many of us commoners felt lucky to be chowing down on a McDouble from the $1 menu at Mickey D’s – feasted on “Dark Winter Greens tossed with Dried Cranberries, Candied Pecans and Pomegranate-Raspberry Vinaigrette, Boneless Wagyu Short Ribs Braised in Aromatics with a Sauce made from a Reduction of the Braising Liquid; (Vegetarian option also available), Cheddar Mashed Potatoes, Asparagus, and Crème Brule: Vanilla Bean Custard with Caramelized Sugar Crust.”
Some things are just better left unsaid.
