Things I Saw Yesterday, December 17, 2007
1.) A typical rich-all-her-life New York lady in a fur coat, slipping on the ice not far from Central Park. For all I know she may have been a patron to the arts, a good wife and mother, a desirable neighbor and model citizen. Don’t care. Still funny.
2.) Steve Martin, picketing with us WGA writers outside Time Warner.
3.) Actor James Spader, not picketing with us, probably doing holiday-related shopping. He strikes me as a Brookstone guy.
4.) Someone of indeterminate sex (because of all their layers of clothing) performing an “air hanky” outside of Grand Central station. Over a planted tree in the sidewalk. Revolting.
5.) Diamond Dairy Restaurant. A New York treasure.

Just Once...
...when there's a news story with Ayman Al Zawahiri's picture as the main graphic, I want to hear something that isn't 100% "chilling." Can't these guys stop the tough talk for one single second in their sorry lives? Just once, when this guy's mug is on Al-Jazeera and CNN, I'd love the message to be something like,
"Americans, be it known that I want, God willing, for the streets and oceans and rivers of the east and west to run red with your blood, but first - I just wanted to say, seriously, have a kick-ass holiday. Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukah and best wishes for 2008."
