Examples of use of eyeshade
1. "Our pension laws tell these companies, ‘Take off the green eyeshade and put on rose–colored glasses,"‘ Grassley said.
2. Sadly, I couldn‘t afford the eyeshade, I still can‘t type and smoking always seemed to involve a great deal of phlegm and death for very little buzz.
3. Smoking is one of the two vices I‘ve never found attractive (the other is gambling, if you‘re interested), but I did begin my life as a writer with the image of the lonely scribbler hunched over a sit–up–and–beg typewriter, wearing a green eyeshade and lighting gaspers into the small hours.
4. Tom DeLay (R) of Texas declared such a cut a "nonstarter." From a budgeteer‘s green–eyeshade point of view, the problem is that federal relief promised in the aftermath of hurricanes Katrina and Rita is growing more expensive by the day.
