Weird Stuff on the Upper East Side

2005_05_napkins.jpgYesterday afternoon, a man pretended to get hit by a car and tended to his wounds with napkins from a Famiglia pizza parlor on First Avenue, while he had really been stabbed during an "arranged sexual tryst." Newsday didn't have that many details, except that the man lay down in the street then walked into the pizza parlor, bleeding, and that the man was uncooperative with the police after the pizza parlor employees called 911. This morning Post elucidated: The man, Glenn McDowell, was stabbed when the woman he met over the Internet refused to have sex with him. The woman turned out to be a man, Andrea Williams, and Williams stabbed McDowell when he became violent. Then Williams' roommate in the illegal sublet near First Avenue and East 68th sprayed Mace in McDowell's eyes. Apparently, Williams "agreed to perform oral sex on McDowell in exchange for $100." An employee at Famiglia told the Post that Williams and the roommate "looked like two fat girls. You wouldn't be able to tell if either of them was a man," while other neighbors told Newsday that they were suspicious of the two roommates, seeing a "lot of unusual people coming in" and that it was "strange that different people were walking in and out." Williams was arrested and charges pending.

that seems kind of expensive, no?

I'm not sure. Whats the going rate for BJ's in NYC anyway?

Haha. He probably met "her" on craigs list.

$100 per bj @ 3 bj's an hour would definitely put one in the upper middle class as per the NY Times definition.

This is why you don't live in the UES.

Why? Are the bj's cheaper in other parts of town?

Please note, my interest is strictly journalistic.

Of Course Tim ;-)

Thx crossfader. I guess it does depend on area as well. Stripclubs probably charge an arm and a leg for that service. Regular street service is probably cheaper. HuntersPoint Ave more expensive then whats on the west side? I don't know, im not an expert on the subject.

Mr McDowell should stick to the ads on the back on the Village Voice.

It's the same media that NEVER mentioned Muslims' hatred of Israel as a possible motive for 9/11.
