Law and Order causes disorder

After a trip to Fairway, I stopped to watch Law and Order film at the 72nd Street subway station. More accurately, I stopped to watch NYers openly defy the pleas of L&O staffers to not walk to the subway entrance during filming. I guess that's what you get for filming during rush hour.

Apartment complete with free tiger

This Craigslist posting seems pretty unbelievable. (Even by NY standards.)

My large, clean studio is available for sublet immediately. There is a queen sized sleigh bed and full cable access. You would be required to care for my pet Siberian Tiger, who is generally friendly.
Zoo/veternarian related experience preferred, but not necessary.




it's NOT ok to contact this poster with services or other commercial interests

Dispatch from NY - score 1 for the Pats

My cousin, D., a psycho Jets fan since before he could talk (thanks to my uncle), admitted to me that the Patriots are the best football team around. I was so shocked that his pronouncement rendered me speechless (which never happens, since I'm an adorable chatterbox). At first I wondered if his conclusion was due to all of the painkillers from his knee surgery last week. But then he repeated it - "the Patriots are like the best NFL team."
