There was an absurd article in the Sunday Styles section of the NY Times the other day about–get this–the people who have moved into the Plaza Hotel cum luxury apartment building and how they are lonely because the apartments are not primary residences for most owners so it’s creating a cold lonely feel in the [...]

Quit Kibitzing and Pass the Gribenes, Frank Bruni, Second Avenue Deli
“All The News That’s Fit to Print” my ass.
This morning a friend forwarded me a New York Times review of the new Second Avenue Deli written by well-known food critic Frank Bruni. Something about this article made me uneasy. Then, I figured it out! There [...]

Okay, the discovery of the Central Park Skate Patrol has completely rocked my balls off. I had no idea that it even existed; I fucking love serious Rollerbladers.

“Congestion pricing fairest for the poor”
Anyone who challenges the notion that New York City would benefit from congestion pricing has a fucking screw loose. There are way too many cars in Manhattan: it’s caustically dirty, unsafe to bike, and unsightly. One of the biggest sticking points of the plan has been the alleged insensitivity toward [...]

My email buddy, Bob Lefsetz, sent out another interesting email this morning praising EMI for finally taking some innovative steps and giving people the music they want, how they want it. Well, for all you Daily News readers this means EMI is going to give you some music–for free, in a couple of Sunday editions [...]

This morning on my way to work, on the 6 train, I looked over at the Daily News that someone was reading and the biggest story on the page was how much Heath Ledger’s coffin cost (just typing that sentence creeps me out). I don’t see how that information has any place in a paper, [...]
