*ROB* – eurotrash tourist traffic in Soho seems to have decresed significantly – please confirm.
agreed except now it’s throngs and throngs of people from jersey, long island, and who knows where else!
it is SO dead here in the office today, and im like one of like 2 people here :-/
ugh and i think im having a stroke (seriously) all day on and off i keep smelling that disgusting smell of burning hair!! and it’s like totally not in my office cuz i felt like i smelled it when i was outside as well, and it smells like it’s coming from inside of my head not external, if that makes any sense!
OK, irony of the day (I’m not calling it a rob-like rant because I was only a bystander, not a victim, as it were):
I moved the car at 8:30 for alternate side. Cops were hanging out in the car waiting to ticket those that didn’t move. They were sitting in the cop car behind one of the double parked cars and across the street from one of the cars that was not moved and was about to receive a ticket. Along comes the street cleaning truck, followed by a garbage truck. Now proper alternate side etiquette is that you do not double park across from a car that hasn’t moved so as not to block traffic on the street. Most responsible Brooklyn car owners know this. And we had all parked opposite spaces that were already empty. But here, the street cleaning truck and garbage truck were stuck, idling and making the usual racket because they were blocked by — you guessed it — the cop car. So some schmuck is getting a ticket for not moving his car so that the street can be cleaned but the street can’t be cleaned because the the schmuck is getting a ticket. The street cleaner and garbage truck (and a bunch of cars behind them) actually had to wait for the cops to write two tickets because two cars hadn’t moved. Honestly, couldn’t the cops just have circled the block and let the trucks through to do their job and then written the tix?
