Joe Biden - Must Have Used Bernie's Subway Tokens...




At the time, Katie's Restaurant had been closed for 15 years.

http://www.delawareonline.com/story/news/local/2014/10/12/katies-subject-biden-gaffe-razed/17172745/

News Journal feature writer Ryan Cormier blogged the next day that the Katie's mention caught him and food writer Patricia Talorico off guard. He said she checked "and realized Biden was referring to the long-closed Katie's Italian restaurant," two blocks from Union at Sixth and Scott streets.

I'll never forget the ruckus here at DU when Biden referred to a restaurant in near his own home that doesn't exist.

reaching back for a memory and trying to work it into the conversation they are holding at the time.

When I was younger I'd act slightly more superior because *I* usually had the superior recall skills. Now, I can remember what happened during BCCI, but, can't remember names of main streets I'd travel nearly everyday for 20yrs when I lived in LA.
