- A judge says that noncitizens can be detained indefinitely; clearly, there will be an appeal
- A naked man running from the police crashed into a livery cab; the driver died from the accident
- Jacob the Jeweler has been indicted for laundering $270 million! That's a lotta bling!
- A sophomore with HIV leaves her Bronx high school (Belmont Prep), after students started taunting her; she will attend Travor Day in Manhattan, but more importantly, why didn't the administration at Belmont take the student's mother up on her offer to hold a forum on AIDS?
- The cabby whose accident caused one woman to die and three others to be injured apparently did not take his seizure medication
- How many stars does one need to rate a restaurant? Anyone?
- Long live Craigslist - Sally Tomato finds someone to wait on line for Shakespeare in the Park tickets for her (we remember when tickets to The Seagulls were being sold for $200 - and that was pre-Craigslist!)

    the flasher was actually suspected in a number of incidents in that area.

    it is really sad...the driver has two kids that he moved to the US to financially support.

    Hey she's going to Trevor Day! Awesome, my alma mater hasn't been in the news since Doctor D tried to pick up 14 year old girls.

    A high-speed chase for a damn flasher? It sounds like he wasn't a suspect for anything else at the time of the chase. That poor livery cab driver's family. What a waste.

  • PS: Great snap!

  • What would happen? Nothing. You'd pay your bribe and be done with it.



    See, the Democrats aren't as close to the Europeans as you may think... at least not since Tammany died...

  • what a mess

    As expected, the liberals have a good point to make but instead launch into hysterical hyperbole and file a class action lawsuit.



    If you overstayed your visa by "three or four years" in Europe, the liberal Democrat's vision of nirvana, what exactly do you think would happen?

  • All in a day in NYC. Sad, but true. It's still the most fabulous city in the world! And yes, they paid me to say that! :)

  • x-new yorker

    There isn't enough prison room to hold all the non-citizens in nyc. The city has enough non-citizens to fill up an entire state.

    That image is like heaven.

    This reminds me of that Chris Rock joke "They let kids with AIDS go to school but they make the kids with Lice in their hair stay at home. Lice, you can't come in, AIDS come right in! If you had seven years to live, why the fuck would you want to go to school?"

    Is Travor Day some new school I've never heard of?
