Random View from NYC - Winter Wonderland Come Again?

by Maurice Michaane

It seems mother nature has given us another snow storm, closing all schools to name a few. In my hometown of Monroe, NY in Orange County they have a State of Emergency with over 30+inches of snow on the ground, no power, and the Monroe Diner as the last best hope of salvation!!

Ok, I'm starting to believe in Global Warming, another storm or two like this, and I just might have to watch Al Gore's film. Enjoy the snow day all!

NYC, Witch's Tits, and all that Wind

I think we all need to hold mittened hands and sing the refrain from Moby's "When It's Cold I'd Like to Die":

"I don't want to swim the ocean

I don't want to fight the tide

I don't want to swim forever

When it's cold I'd like to die"

Father Tony is not invited in this gathering since he is someplace warmer.

For the Love of NYC: A Day Open to Adventures

Rather than write a post about all the adventures I did have today, I decided to drop a little ditty here at Queer New York about one of the best, most enviable things I can think of about New York City: I have an entire day off from work and I'm in the city (after a much extended absence) with absolutely nothing to do.   This means I can set out this morning with nothing but NYC wanderlust crashing up against the Christmas Eve vibe of the city.  Running through Central Park! Museums! Christmas Windows! Walking around looking at weirdness and wonderfulness! Dare I stop in somewhere for a glass of wine for lunch?
I suppose you can do this in any city, but can you think of one more fun or full of possibilities than New York?
Doubt it.
