i found a deadbeg just now INSIDE of the copy machine :-/
so the one i found dead on the floor here at work last week was NOT a gnat, i knew it wasnt. ugh. this one was def. dead and i tried to brush it out but it fell way into the cracks of the machine!!! soho must be infested! and my laundry room at home is infested! they are doing construction in this building, do you think that is what cause it? there is also a designer in the building and clothing designers often get them with their overseas garments and stuff. they are right upstairs! UGH!

When I had to ride the 4 to/from Utica Ave in my CH days, I wanted to commit murder on a daily basis. I spent a TON of money on cabs that year.

Whereas, if you hop on the A at 181st St, you are in midtown in 20-30 minutes and to Fort Greene Brooklyn in 40!

Donatella, I love the A train too, especially living in Bed-Stuy now, near the A at Nostrand and not having to wait for the C. But I think you’d need a helicopter to get from 181st St. to Ft. Greene in 40 minutes, especially since by train you’d have to change for the C or G.

When my daughter and I were looking at high schools, we timed the trip from Nostrand to Columbus Circle on the A (on the way to La Guardia) several times. Never less than 30 minutes from the moment the doors closed at Nostrand until the doors opened at 59th St. 181st St. is another 20 minutes at the very least. Even the ever-optimistic MTA website indicates 47 minutes during rush hour from Nostrand to 181st St.

It fits with my image as a Tea Bag Party member.

PS, it was a weak attempt at humor…The Four Seasons singing “Sherry”
