One of the neighborhood garden cats died; it was hit by a car. We are all sad.
Hip-hop about Alexander Hamilton in the voice of Aaron Burr. Um, it's actually more awesome than bizarre, which is saying something, because it's pretty bizarre. Found through kalichan who grew up with the guy (the dude performing, not Alexander Hamilton or Aaron Burr, because that would be weird).
She also sent me a link to the New York Times explaning current unemployment rates. If people need an illustration to understand the idea of 1 in 10, our problems are more epic than I can possibly imagine. After that, the charts actually attempt to tell us something we don't know.
Not terribly surprised about the taxi story. When leaving the recent Click & Drag reunion I watched cab drivers refuse to stop for one person ( who admittedly was more than a tad drunk and trying to walk in heels ) and the usual refusals to go to Brooklyn. As for taxi antics, I've had more than my share but was never tossed from the cab. Remember that story?
