The Varibike, designed by German Martin Kraiss, allows cyclists to use both their arms and legs! New York Mayor Fiorello La Guardia banned artichokes from the city in 1935. In 1790, Government House was built in New York as President George Washington's executive mansion, but he never moved in and it was demolished in 1815.

I think I wouldn’t mind having a varibike. (Why would LaGuardia ban artichokes?)

Might Artie choke on an artichoke if an artichoke may choke Artie?

Artichokes notwithstanding, La Guardia was a great mayor who chased fire engines, and kids tuned in every Sunday morning to listen to him read the funnies on the radio.

Then, your instructions were WRONG!!!!! You don’t just steam an artichoke; it, like many other food need to be SEASONED!!! And, yes, it IS bland, but can be prepared in numerous ways. Try again!!!!!
