- DC is so weird - they're all about naming their developments after NYC neighborhoods
- Disgraced Enron CEO Kenneth Lay dies in Aspen, leaving the Wikipedia writers to guess as to how he died
- Where is the Hallo Berlin street food cart?
- Would you really want to live in a rental building over the Lincoln Tunnel?
- The city has struck a tentative deal wtih school bus drivers - guess the summer school kids won't need that city-provided taxi fare or Metrocards after all
- This morning's rain caused a bit of flooding in the outer boroughs - and some subway slowness
- Interesting NY Sun editorial comparing NJ Governor Corzine to NY Governor would-be Spitzer

why do we call any borough that is manhattan "the outer boroughs" wtf? why can't we just say bklyn,queens,bronx?
Is anyones else besides me sick of seeing this Ex Real-Worlders glomming onto MTV shows like Gauntlet or whatevertheheck name it is? I'm seeing people who are pushing 40 at this point. Get a real damn job, already. Noone cares that you were the cute virgin circa 1993 Real World...
If anyone finds out where Ken Lay is going to be buried, please post details. I'd like to take a few vacation days and shit on his tombstone.
Ahh, more Bush legacy.
re: rocknrope
yes. yes yes yes. that mark dude from the first real world has to be late 30's by now.. BUT HE'S STILL ROCKIN ENOUGH TO HAVE THE MOHAWK, MAN.
Rolf (Hallo Berlin cart guy) is in Germany. He has been there for the last few weeks for the world cup. I spoke to him before the games started and he said he was going and would be back afterwards. Mystery solved.
I keep telling people Wikipedia is inaccurate, a joke and not a reliable source of information.
I tried editing it for a brief time, got my account hacked by someone that got pissed off because they didn't agree with me and had no recourse in getting any of the problems fixed since nobody seemed to be in charge. That and it seems to be dominated by teenagers with Asperger Syndrome, random nutjobs, and obsessed fans - all of which drive any normal person off who does something to upset one of them.
Ken Lay killed himself with prescription meds. no doubt.
I hope this doesn't mean that his family gets to keep his ill-gotten gains.
Here's hoping the courts swipe every thin (stolen) dime.
