I almost got mowed down in an intersection by a speeding bicyclist running a red light in the village yesterday. I am totally for making this city more bike-friendly, but not if it means that bike rid...

On November 21, 2010 11:13 PM in Parking Prices Likely To Increase, Piss Off Commuters, they said:

The "market-based" parking meter pricing system doesn't bother me- hell, make it $5 an hour at all times. But don't make it a nightmare to have to leave your car for more than 55 minutes. All of the o...

On November 3, 2010 4:52 PM in How Much Would You Pay To Rent/Save Poe's Cottage?, they said:

What a sweet cottage, and a terrific cause. I hope that it gets the right kind of publicity, reaching the right people. What a shame that they are entrusting such an important fundraiser to the incomp...

On August 9, 2010 9:13 PM in Mets Fan Whose Face Got Broken by Exploding Bat Is Suing, they said:

The Mets should have offered to pay this guy's medical bills and then some, by now (even from a publicity standpoint, if not out of a sense of compassion). If they haven't, then shame on them. As a ba...

On August 4, 2010 2:28 PM in Homeless, Overachieving Teen Gets Full College Scholarship, they said:

Yeah, I realize that now- the first time I read the post, it seemed like there was only one school involved because only one school and location was named. And while Purchase isn't upstate, Loch Sheld...

On August 4, 2010 1:22 AM in Homeless, Overachieving Teen Gets Full College Scholarship, they said:

"That's how you know someone is not talking about NYC". No, that's not how you know. By that logic, Long Island, which lies geographically south-east of NYC, would be "upstate". Those of us who really...

I thought the same thing, then realized that the underage part is probably the "aggravating" factor of the drunk driving charge....

On July 12, 2010 10:15 PM in "Rubber Band Bandit" Wanted for Lotto Scam, they said:

Aren't these scratch tickets numbered? If a store owner knows he just lost 40 tickets to a scammer, doesn't he just count backwards and include the range of numbers in his report to the authorities? A...

On July 11, 2010 11:33 AM in Video Released Of Riverside Park Attacks Suspect, they said:

On June 7, 2010 2:22 PM in Actress Claims Birth Control Caused Her Stroke, they said:

I am not a medical professional. I did some research on brands of bc pills a couple of years ago, after my doctor prescribed them to me for a non-bc-related issue. I was horrified by the many many rep...

On June 2, 2010 11:04 AM in 56 Arrested At Latest Immigration Rally, they said:

It would seem inconceivable for the leadership of a modern day country to allow, never mind encourage, many millions of its citizens to leave rather than provide means for them to stay, prosper and co...
