We've received an offer of détente in our ongoing battle with the Campaign for Little Britain, to which we have heretofore entirely objected. Yesterday we suggested, dismissively, that if they succeed in getting Greenwich Avenue between West 12th and West 13th Streets — the British-ish shops Tea & Sympathy and A Salt and Battery are on the north side of that block — renamed "Little Britain," we'll campaign to have the southern side of that same block, from which we're writing this, renamed "Little Place Where Some Jewish Writers Live." Late in the day, we received a supportive reply. Here, a Balfour Declaration just for us:

Terrific idea! We'll vote for you if you vote for us.

We've put the kettle on…

Sigh. If only we could bring ourselves to vote for them.
