[From Tom Lehrer, to the tune of “A Model Major General”]
There’s antimony, arsenic, aluminum, selenium,
And hydrogen and oxygen and nitrogen and rhenium,
And nickel, neodymium, neptunium, germanium,
And iron, americium, ruthenium, uranium,
Europium, zirconium, lutetium, vanadium,
And lanthanum and osmium and astatine and radium,
And gold and protactinium and indium and gallium,
And iodine and thorium and thulium and thallium.
There’s yttrium, ytterbium, actinium, rubidium,
And boron, gadolinium, niobium, iridium,
And strontium and silicon and silver and samarium,
And bismuth, bromine, lithium, beryllium, and barium.
There’s holmium and helium and hafnium and erbium,
And phosphorus and francium and fluorine and terbium,
And manganese and mercury, molybdenum, magnesium,
Dysprosium and scandium and cerium and cesium.
And lead, praseodymium, and platinum, plutonium,
Palladium, promethium, potassium, polonium,
And tantalum, technetium, titanium, tellurium,
And cadmium and calcium and chromium and curium.
There’s sulfur, californium, and fermium, berkelium,
And also mendelevium, einsteinium, nobelium,
And argon, krypton, neon, radon, xenon, zinc, and rhodium,
And chlorine, carbon, cobalt, copper, tungsten, tin, and sodium.
These are the only ones of which the news has come to Ha’vard,
And there may be many others, but they haven’t been discavard.
“You got that right!! Trying to score Noki a house in the Heights-Hill-Gardens rectangle. Would it KILL you to help me???”
CGar, you missed the days (year) of me passing on potential homes for Noki’s consideration. As with the gatherings, I was subtly able to delegate that responsibility to others.
“I do think that the BID was a good idea despite added fees to rents because I find that already Fulton Street is a much nicer place to walk than it was even 10 months ago. The sidewalks are WAY cleaner, there are tons of new trees, and the whole feel of the street has been made more appealing. That will increase foot traffic to everyone’s business, high end, low end and in between. So no, I don’t think that the small businesses are going to go under because of the BID increases. I believe that the BID will increase business for everyone to easily offset the added monthly costs.”
The space (corner Waverly and Fulton St) just rented for 3,600 a month (G-Way Mgmt). The building permits are up and away they go!
3600 + 300 (BID) = 3,900 a month.
That stretch of Fulton St is DEAD!!!!!! Now tell me O’Wasder what tpye of business and what type of INCOME they need to generate to stay in business with a Full Blown Depression right around the corner?????!!!!!
I know a Bar.. Let put ANOTHER BAR on Fulton St to go with the dozens of other right Wasder?????
“Even the owner of the MET, who led the anti-BID forces last year, has come around on the concept and is now featured on the BID’s website. ”
That’s BULL and you know it!!!!
“I think alot of the anti-BID sentiment came as a result of fear of the unknown and fear of change. Now that it has gone down and the street is so much nicer I think that most business owners have come around to the concept that this is not going to put them out of business.”
And always the same arguments. “Carbon” copies of each other. I wish everyone could “iron” out their differences. Maybe we should take the “lead”. If we make it happen, we’ll get the “gold” star.
I need some sexual “helium” after seeing a nice set of “titaniums” earlier today.
I “zinc” I’ve gone too far. Where’s Sheldon “Silver” when we need him?
“There is a great Greek fish place in Manhattan…”
Gramercy Park near Gramercy Tavern. Can’t remember name but pretty good. Fresh fish on ice right where you sit.
