Note that there is no ne to go with the pas, and that de follows the rules of other adverbs of quantity, meaning that even in front of plural nouns it's usually de not des. Examples Tu l'as fait en dix minutes ? Pas mal ! You did it in 10 minutes? Not bad / Way to go! Il gagne pas mal d'argent. He earns quite a bit of money. J'ai pas mal de questions. I have quite a few / a fair number of questions. Nous avons discutÃ© pas mal d'idÃ©es. We discussed quite a few ideas. Elle a pas mal voyagÃ©.
Holly Butcher, who recently died at age 27 of a rare form of cancer that affects the bones, wrote a letter to her friends and family in her last week of life giving wise and moving advice about how to get the most out of whatever time we each have on Earth.
''I am so not Dr. Melfi,'' she told the audience of analysts. Yet to the analysts she is Dr. Melfi. And the meeting last week was their chance to sort out their feelings about her. A few clips were screened. One showed Dr. Melfi shortly after she was raped in a parking garage. She tells her own therapist about having a dream of a vicious dog attacking the rapist and of her wish to have Tony Soprano kill him. The other clip showed the long-legged Dr. Melfi skillfully parrying Tony Soprano's attempt to kiss her. For a brief moment, it seems as if she will fall for Tony the way Ms. Streisand's character went for Mr. Nolte's.
