Day Three of the Trip
Time Square is rushing outside my window. My senses are on consumer overload! Cup of Ramen, IFC, LG Phones, Verizon Wireless, and every possible Musical and Broadway play you can imagine are begging for my attention with massive glowing and flashing lights. However, the most disturbing advertising image has got to be the thirty-story billboard of some Latin man (Maricio, I believe is his name) who, according to the text on the billboard promoting Telemundo, is here for me. “Maricio esta aqui para ti,” it reads. Our room on the 25th floor is eye level with Maricio and he watches me whenever I change. He just stares. It disturbs me. Anyway, let me get on with it. At this point in the trip I have seen a Yankees game, worked at a food pantry, seen “All Shook Up” on Broadway, and watched Def Leppard (The drummer from Def Leppard only has one arm) play “Pour Some Sugar On Me” on the Today Show. I have only been in New York for a day now, and I am exhausted, as I have walked what must have been miles and miles. So, I will call it a day. I will leave you all with some choice quotes from the day. Also, as fun as New York has been, I would have loved to be in O-town tonight for Bone’s 21st. Ok, good night, and here are some quotes.
“It’s ok if it’s gay.”
“I am a black man”
“Batteries, one dollar.”
“Peel Me like a Banana.”
“Do you have any idea where we are going?”
“I am always down for that.”
Goodnight from the city that never sleeps, while I try to,
Rob
