things that suck about nyc #285: the chance of getting stuck in an elevator
in nyc, you ride elevators more than any place in the US. i hear about people getting stuck all the time. this wknd it happened to me. 1 hour in a steel walled elevator with spotlights pouring down. the guy on the other side of the emergency intercom was cool tho, he played the radio for me and kept calling me "buddy," as in, "you ok there, buddy?" at dinner, i told a friend and he replied with another story about his friend getting stuck late night with a girl and the girl taking a piss in the elevator (they were drunk). they ended up going on some dates...

in our continuing tour of ny's soccer fields,
we visit randall's island again, this time the southside

weather was brutal, probably around 30 degrees at the 9pm kickoff... but it was gorgeous out.

great views all around and you can rent these fields for under $10 (but it's impossible to get a reservation)

the island is also famous for its psychiatric wards and other various, strange institutions. they put these here on purpose... you can peep em in the background...

things that are awesome about owning your own biz #2: you can make stoopid marketing materials
how can she slap thing has been stuck in my head now for over a month now. I want to say "you go" like every third sentence. so as a catharsis, i made these stickers so i never have to think about it again. you go.
