Good morning gang - foggy and warmish for this time of year - not bad actually - feeling a relative 8 once again this morning.
Mets appear to be in deep doo-doo. Hope they can pull off at least one more win - one of their best pitchers is up tonight.
Walking in this morning was quite nice - "young men" - boys, dressed in nickers, collared shirts and ties, zooming on their Razor scooter's to school. I hope the all of them, some day learn and appreciate the value of just where and how they are being educated. Not to many young men receive the benefit of an Upper East Side education.
As I walked down Park Avenue toward Midtown I came upon an older, distinguished looking business-man type - he was yelling at his door man. Something about the fellows car and driver being there and then disappearing - and the poor door man "not calling up" to "warn" this gent. But he was no gent to me. He seemed a spoiled asshole. Nobody should berate people, especially hard working, blue collar, service folks - in public like that.
Besides, it's New York, the traffic's always tough and this morning worse than usual - Slick Willy's still here - in town last night to hob-knob with Bobby D and all his show biz buddies. When he or Hill come to town their motorcades wreak havoc on the city - there were police barricades everywhere. Sometimes it takes them two days to collect them all. Anyway it's hard for a car and driver to "stand" with all the traffic and all. Sometimes the cops roust you and you might have to circle the block - with the preponderance of one-way streets - it could take 15 minutes, often more, to circle back for your pick-up. Any reasonable person could not expect a door man "to hold" a car their - not in New York. The poor door man probably just turned his back for a second - and the car was gone - then the man showed up and was pissed. Fuck him. These people - ya know, you've got to be a multi-millionaire to live on Park Avenue in that block - it's too fucking bad some of these assholes have so much money. I hope, if one of his sons might have passed me on the way to school - they won't turn out like their old man.
Oh well what can you do? One of these days man…… feel like I'll bust loose, make a Texas Tower type of stand….. only I'd put signs up everywhere - WANTED! Rich Assholes to Snipe - Walk This Way! Please!
Hey, maybe I'm a 9 now!!!!! You all have a good day and look for my post regarding my "Adventure in Gay Catholicism."
