Laundry

I stayed home from work today to nurse a cold. I entertained myself by photographing the laundry. I'm easily amused.

Its Obama Day in the USA.

Two patriotic women in the middle of the street, cars whizzing by, as the traffic cop yells at them to be careful.

Chinatown!

I always see the most interesting people in Chinatown. I should say that the coat is more interesting than the person that I saw today after I got my eyeglasses adjusted.

More Drama on Maiden Lane

The fire across the street this morning reminded me of an incident that happened last winter. We heard horns blowing, looked out the window and this homeless woman was standing in the street cursing a blue streak at the driver in the car on the right. Actually she was just cursing and the guy in the car just happened to be in the way. She stayed there for about 45 minutes cursing at the top of her lungs with horns blowing a New York symphony, until the traffic cops came and talked her down.

Fire on Maiden Lane!

Jon noticed smoke coming from the Hays Building across the street. We both called 911, me from the street. Firemen arrived, went into the building, smoke stopped, firemen left. A lot of drama happens on Maiden Lane.
