Just as Snoopy’s cousin Spike (the one with the mustache) resides in Needles, CA…
Big Bird has a cousin who lives far from his home too!
Abelardo lives in Plaza Sésamo, Mexico.
¡Hola, Abelardo!
Sarah Palin to $upport Santa? & Underprivileged Children?? & New Yorkers?!?
Scanning Craigslist for Holiday Work, I happened upon an ad seeking Temporary Full-Time Employees.
$25 bucks an hour plus complementary meals & lodging,
“creating one of a kind toys for underprivileged children”
Wonder where the Kool-Aid Claus is? WorkForSanta.com reveals: Co-founded by The Sarah Palin Economic Initiative.
Lush, complimentary lodgings and full-time (albeit temporary) employment at nearly 3 1/2 x the minimum wage? For NEW YORKERS?
Not a snowball’s chance in a piping hot percolator.
*sigh* …. *updates letter to Santa*

ScoutingNY deftly reminds NewYorkers to look up, and rightfully so.
e.g. Addams Family Rooftop
…sitting atop 881 Broadway / 115 5th Ave.
Subway Etiquette
Subway Etiquette is a touchy subject.
Today, popular blogs and articles relishing—er--reprimanding rude and ridiculous habits of MTA & other transit passenger are even featured on the news.
Fed up New York-based artist Jay Shells took it into his own hands to inform riders of general rules of decent conduct, with a poster campaign.
