Yes, No, Maybe So...

I think I just saw Andy Pettitte (my favorite Yankees pitcher) walking into the subway as I was walking out!

Here was my thought process...I'm sure you can picture it well:

"SIGH. I don't really want to go to work tod--hmm...that guy looks like Andy Pettitte. No. Couldn't be. Andy Pettitte doesn't ride the subway! Why not? Anderson Cooper rides the subway."

ALL but staring at him as I'm going out the turnstile and he's coming in the one right next to me "holy fuck. it's Andy Pettitte! don't stare, just keep walking...."

well, maybe it was and maybe it wasn't...but that's my story and I'm sticking to it!

Dear April, Wendy, and Michael and Everyone else who wants to send me fun things in the mail OR are planning a visit...

To April: THANK YOU for not sending any drugs or bombs or drug or bomb related materials in your latest care package--it got a sniff down from the ferry dogs. To Wendy and Michael: see occasionally the ferry dogs work....not often, but occasionally.

Out of the Mouths of Babes...

So we're on the uptown 4 train headed to YANKEE stadium. In a train car filled with people who are obviously going to the game.

Thankfully.

Sitting next to Wendy is a little boy about 4--maaaybe 5--who's just enjoying the train ride, chatting about the game, mimicing the train sounds. Several stops before YANKEE stadium, the train actually surfaces, as it travels above ground in the Bronx. The boy looking around, looks at his dad and says "Have you noticed the further north you go, the poorer it gets?"

I Mean Really?

Do you think it's the best idea to have your Chinese Food Restaurant next door to an Animal Hospital?

'Stache Day at Yankee Stadium...

Well you have to hand it to the Yankees for, um, supporting their players. Who else would create Moustache Day at their ballpark and give away free fake moustaches to the first 20,000 people who arrive at the stadium because one player grew a moustache, got out of a hitting slump, and was vying for the last spot on the All-Star Team???
