- Damn, we would have loved to have gone to school in the Tweed Courthouse.
- We're not sure we agree with Bloomberg's decision to start letting municipal workers live outside the city. Those rules were there for a reason.
- Top this Mike: Newark's new mayor chased down a bank robber. Seriously.
- Here's a tough one: Do you shoot the Ramones first album cover or teach Hebrew school class?

    From the Post article re municipal workers:

    Waiving the residency rule also is an admission there's not nearly enough affordable housing for DC 37 members.
