Unrequited subway love is as New York as a dirty water dog (and dogs in sweaters these days…). This can be seen by guys in two ways: 1) this guy is a) creepy b) crazy or c) pathetically desperate and hopeless…or 2) as another nail in the coffin for all of us who are just as hopelessly romantic, but not as ambitious, creative or free of other obligations…

A horrible tragedy on a great day for American distance running: the Olympic Trials winner, Ryan Hall, ran 2:09:02, which is blazing - even more so considering the stiff wind whipping around the park despite the tree coverage. Even 3 days after the incident, the running community is stunned and mourning. I didn’t know the guy...
