Evidence

Two blocks from where I live is a police station.  Every so often a wrecked car is parked along the street; disturbing and unsightly.  This stretch limo was the most graphic.  The sealed evidence was in the front passenger seat and the rear right side.  The front of the car was badly ripped up.  The …

Speechless!

Awoke last night at 4:28.  Nothing startled me, just awoke and thought to get out of bed. I always note the time for various reasons.  Outside it was quiet. Until.  At 4:30 my outside door buzzer went.  Not too long, not too short, just about right.  First thought it was ‘kids’ or someone quietly walking …

The Perks

of offering to help someone standing on the corner with a guide book.  They were three, a father, mother and son.  The book was in French.  The sun was out and I was on my way to a destination, but they looked lost.  So I stopped and asked if they needed help.  They wanted to …

That Moment

Looked out my apartment window, and at that moment, a shiny, black bmw mini suv was driving north, somewhat slowly as the driver was trying to navigate a biker and make a left turn.  Something on the car’s roof caught my eye as the car was turning. I moved to the other window to follow …

Ya Gotta Read This.

Rather a unique website, I’m recommending.  It seems to be a collection of doom and gloom.  However, check out this one article:  a man killed surfing on subway #6.  Most enlightening are the discussions below the article by the male participants.  Sort of a dumb and dumber in real life. just copy and past this …

Olde Time

At the Macy’s on 35th Street.  Against the back wall of the front building. Behind the elevators.  It is all solid wood, imposing and has a mezzanine stop!

That Game…

where the 3″ square pieces are turned face down on the table top and you have to turn them over, 2 at a time, to find a match?  Here’s one for you.  This shop is two blocks away from where I live, next to the post office.  Do you know where the other one is?
