  1. Oh, CXB, you lovable scamp-- just a couple of months out of the pokie, and already getting into fistfights with deranged comedy club managers.
  2. Today on the Gothamist Newsmap: a scaffold collapse in the Village, a single-engine plane crash in Brooklyn, and a person struck by subway at 42nd Street on the 7. Also, last night there was a small fire at the Williamsburg Savings Bank building (currently under construction), in Brooklyn.
  3. The man falsely convicted of the Palladium nightclub shooting has filed a $50m suit against the city "for false arrest, malicious prosecution and false imprisonment."
  4. Did you know that North Jersey style is toooootally different from South Jersey style?
  5. A Gambino-family associate got 20 years in prison for the botched-hit on Guardian Angels founder Curtis Sliwa.
  6. Here's a nice set of pix from inside Red Hook's soon to be destroyed Sugar Refinery. Beautiful!
  7. Shield your eyes from this 596px wide shot of a shirtless Eliot Spitzer. Note to Eliot: think about joining Pale Force.

He looks pretty good to me. Are you suggesting there is a politician with a better body?

Awesome photos! But what's going on with the sugar refinery???

(And yes, in fact, I have been on the Moon for the last few weeks, so no comments, okay?)

Spitzer has hardly any muscle development but he also appears to have remarkably low body fat. In many ways that's good. If he started pumping some iron and eating a lot of protein he'd be able to add some serious muscle in no time flat. It's a hell of a lot easier to add muscle if you're skinny, than it is to cut fat and then add muscle, as you'll have to do if you're carrying some extra avoirdupois.

Philadelphia grabs New York and says, "Hey buddy, between you and me?" He looks around and whispers, "New Jersey!"

I presume they meant to shield our eyes because Spitzer's white skin glows. That's okay, Elliot - I'm pale, too.
