Hahahaha, my favorite comment on NYTimes' blurb about Tyler quitting Aerosmith:

Right before that picture, I’m pretty sure Steven chose the wrong cup to drink out of in his quest for the Holy Grail. He chose poorly.

Photo he was referring to:

It's really Nam Wah, not Nom Wah. Lost City misspelled it. Nam Wah has been around forever. I remember going there back in the '60s. Doyers Street wouldn't be the same without it, especially now that May May is gone.

I've always seen it spelled Nom Wah, but it's hard to tell since one of the Chinese ideograms covers up the crucial letter. I suppose the menu would tell the actual spelling, but I've never eaten in any of the Doyers Street places.

Steven Tyler has quit Aerosmith? Blasphamy!!

58 Health Code violations.
Sounds like awesome.

" I know I’m not nearly as attractive."

You're wrong Huckabee, at least you have some talent and a sense of humor.

Jesus, by the look of that pic, the headline should read "Steven Tyler Has Quit Aerosmith to Focus on Dementia"
