Yesterday after work in the Eight Ave subway there were douchebags
working for Sprint yelling at people to use their cell phones on the platforms. Apparently, the worst idea
the MTA ever had is up and running.
Be prepared for a fresh descent into hell.

Great news about the Waverly neon! Anybody know when it's going to reopen? I'm jonesing for a Waverly Melt!

Ah, Coney Island Whitefish. Or what we call on Remulak a discarded piece of a high fructose and very tasty chewing substance!

Remember that old ad to the tune of "Lullaby of Broadway"

...And in the center of it all, is the Milford Plaza.

Damn...Beat to it. Maybe I should read the comments a little closer.
