Adrienne Shelly was a huge talent in the Hal Hartley movies, and Waitress showed how deep her talent ran. This was a loss for all of us.

Re: public peeing: how come it's okay for folks to let their dogs pee helter skelter, on stoops, on sidewalks, etc., but if my kid has to pee he or she would get in trouble, and I risk getting a ticket. The lack of sensible public restrooms is a real problem in NYC. That said, dudes peeing during the marathon is just funny.

At least they aren't parking.

i thought if you had to pee during a marathon then you over-hydrated & don't hardcore racers just pee themselves rather than stop?

They had portapotties along the course. These guys aren't using them, probably because (a) it's a race and (b) it's fun, weeeee. You do make an interesting point that they could maybe design a more race-oriented receptacle for men to pee on.

One of the enduring stories of the race is actually how men pee off the Verrezzano bridge.

[3] Not only that, but without cover in broad daylight. I don't care what kind of event you're doing, that's just bad manners for adults and a terrible example to set for kids. They're not even the first. You can see wet spots on the wall where others went before them.

So let me get this straight, they can put on this "wonderful" event with incredible organization, but they can't put up a tent with two open ends and a stainless steel collection trough. And what are the female competitors supposed to do, drop their shorts right out in the open?

I guess the Ramones won't be on President Obama's inaugural soundtrack.

Johnny Ramone was actually noted for being very right wing, so it's not at all a surprise that his wife would be too.

talk about hypocrisy.

I'm eating some American fries and boycotting French whines, wait that was last year.

as you were. USA! USA! USA! USA!

JacqueMehoff, Alec Baldwin and Babbo Streisand are still living in the USA after promising to leave after John 'Anus' Kerry's defeat. I'm sure they can afford it so why are they still here? IN YOUR FACE OBAMA CULTIST, REV. JIM JONES LIVES, OBAMA 08!!!!

I'm reading the gun boards and they're actually threatening to leave the US if Obama is President.

like they could afford it.

these are your real life Joe the Plumbers and their base.

I can't wait until cult leader Obama uses the military. It will be exciting!

It doesn't matter what Obama does in the next eight years. I'll enjoy it because it'll piss off HUGO_MEGO every minute of that eight years. And then we can have another Democratic president after that. Bwahahahahaha!

arfarfarf: Dank u

They are not peeing. They are taking a minute to pray to Dear Leader Obama. CULT OF OBAMA IS ON THE RISE! THE ONE SHALL LEAD US!!!

Would be nice if smartypants bloggers knew the diff between Dutch and Danish. "but they're both in Scandinavia, right? Where the Sound of Music was shot?"

LOL

I don't care if they are running a marathon, that is completely disrespectful to pee on someone's building.

They're not taking a break. They're taking a leak.

"The juror in the Senator Ted Stevens corruption trial who claimed she had to leave the trial because her father did was actually watching horse races."

Should read: ....father died

Just sayin'.

Love Ya!
