"I love that ConEd always appears shocked by the fact that it gets hot in the summer." No kidding. There were NYPD units going around last night with a loudspeaker proclaiming that "Coned says to turn out your lights and turn off your AC." Thanks a lot, ConEd, it's not as if I bought my air conditioner to, you know, run in hot weather or anything. I'm sure soon enough ConEd will start wringing their hands about the masses of energy hogs who turn on their lights when it is dark.

That large umbrella is surely from a street vendor's cart.
