Secret Messages

When we read a sentence, it sometimes have a double meaning.

I live on the North Shore. This could mean that i live anywhere from Highland Park to Wilmette.

The secret meaning would be that maybe "I am more well off than people who do not live on the North Shore." Also, the secret meaning could determine the social class I am in or the religious views that I practice.

i agree, and i think that just the fact of living on the north shore could convey some of those messages, let alone telling someone about how you live on the north shore.
