I had to machete through Times Square last night to get to the theater. Amazing how Bloomberg, DeBlasio and tourists have turned that area into the worst piece of dreck outside of Bourbon Street in August. A stupid tourist, thinking it was perfectly ok to throw her hands wide on a massively crowded street, struck my friend, Lara, in the eye.
Fall can’t come soon enough.
IMO, even if every bar in the area were permanently closed, it would take ten years or more for that stench to finally vanish. And it rains there pretty regularly.
I stood on the ferry dock of Governors Island three serperate times looking at the ‘big city’, bustling traffic, wall to wall people, etc, etc.......
Three times I made the decision that The Big Apple would just have to get along with out me.
