This explains so much

On Thursday, I sent this e-mail to the bus company:

"FYI ...
At least one of your buses (the one in the Halloween parade last night) misspells ROCKEFELLER CENTER on its side. Eeek."

And I received this reply the same day:

"Dear Mr. Eeek,
Thank you for letting us know about the bus misspells. We are very appreciating it and we will take care of it.
Best regards,
Lyr Bar."

Now THAT is scary

During the Greenwich Village parade last night, I saw this on the side of a tour bus full of costumed people:


Try ROCKEFELLER. At least it's correct on their Web site, but I wonder how many of its buses bear this horrifying error. Probably many or all of them.

And then I rode the subway home with four drag queens in assless* pants. I love this city!

*Ass-less?

I'll snag a photo later

There's a tacky jewelry store by my office that has about 15 paper signs on the window today, each one of which says "SALE." Yes, with the quotes. I'll get a pic for you all soon.

I've gotta get braver/more shameless about photographing such things. I don't want people to think I'm weird. But hey, this is New York. I saw a guy carrying a deer head down 38th Street earlier this year while filming himself, and nobody cared.

No grammar atrocities to report today. Anyone else have news?
