He did not go to the Old Country Road School. His family lived on the other side of town, not in a Levitt house like us. My brother and I did attend junior high school and high school with him and were in chorus with him in high school.
I was on Governer’s island on sunday. Kids loved it. There were a thousand cyclists and as many picnickers. I discovered much to my surprise that 50% of cyclists in NY aren’t in fact, congential assholes, contrary to my experience as a pedestrian during the week.

It’s been 22 years since I moved to Clinton Hill and the demographics on my block have changed from 98 percent black to less than 50 percent. And that’s only half the time.
Rob – there’s those no-nonsense matte black ones, look more like climbing helmets. They’re not so dorkiferous.
