  1. dibs – Can’t wait to hear how you like it. Saw a new steak place in the Times – can’t remember the name & it was just a mention, not a review.
    I’ve had good & had luck w/ Spring Hill. Not had problems w/ Breck’s but haven’t done them in a few years.
    What’re you getting, dibs?
    I think Snappy’s planning on doing lunch – she can’t do spicy either.

  2. The following are the lyrics to “Detachable Penis” by King Missile. Does anyone else think this looks like a really long post by Legion?

    —————–

    I woke up this morning with a bad hangover
    And my penis was missing again
    This happens all the time
    It’s detachable
    This comes in handy a lot of the time
    I can leave it home
    When it think it’s gonna get me in trouble
    Or I can rent it out when I don’t need it
    But now and then I go to a party
    Get drunk, and the next morning
    I can’t, for the life of me, remember what I did with it

    First I looked around my apartment
    And I couldn’t find it
    So I called up the place where the party was
    They hadn’t seen it either
    I asked them to check the medicine cabinet
    ‘Cause for some reason, I leave it there sometimes
    But not this time
    So I told them if it pops up to let me know

    I called a few people who were at the party
    But they were no help either
    I was starting to get desperate
    I really don’t like being without my penis for too long
    It makes me feel like less of a man
    And I really hate having to sit down
    Every time I take a leak

    After a few hours of searching the house
    And calling everyone I could think of
    I was starting to get very depressed
    So I went to the Kiev and ate breakfast
    Then as I walked down Second Avenue
    Towards St. Mark’s Place
    Where all those people
    Sell used books and other junk on the street
    I saw my penis lying on a blanket
    Next to a broken toaster oven
    Some guy was selling it
    I had to buy it off him
    He wanted 22 bucks, but I talked him down to 17
    I took it home, washed it off
    And put it back on

    I was happy again
    Complete

  3. no, not working this friday. will be at wkend house.
    But where would you order delivery pizza near work(or your old apt). Figuring on my last day on the job, I would order a few pizzas and treat all the shop stewards for all their hard work.

  4. I got a pagoda tree a few years back after applying a couple of times. I did a happy dance that made the Parks Department laugh. Two weeks after it was planted a film crew parked trailers up against it banging the trailer doors against it, removing the support pole, and nearly knocked it down. They wouldn’t do anything to stop this, I called the Film commission or whatever it is called on their permit flyers and word got back to the location manager fast. They applogized and locked the door that was swinging against it. (too bad they didn’t stop using my front yard as their craft service picnic spot, but I digress.)

    A neighbor across the street and I campaigned to get more street trees planted on our street.

    Due to the Million Trees initiative last year they filled in all the missing spots on my block with English Oak.

    It has transformed the block like you wouldn’t believe.
