    1st a verse?? am i the only person that assumed it was "Ist-a-Verse" as in, you know, gothamist?

    Gothamist should really let the user edit their post after it's posted.

    "last night around 7pm night this morning."

    Steven, don't be surprised if Gothamist offers you an editorship.

    I was wondering what happened to the 1st-a-Verse today as well. It's always there every Sunday morning.

    BTW The bomb threat on the ship happened last night around 7pm night this morning.

    Hey Gothamist! What happened to 1st-a-Verse today? I look forward to reading it every Sunday.

    (Great job otherwise, though.)

    Ah, a bomb threat. That would explain why all the cops were around the bike path near the cruise ship terminal this morning.

    Yhe link for the metal ban ban links to the article about Connecticut's removal of parole for violent offenders. Pls. fix.
