New West Network | Schweitzer Tells Bush Off on Roadless Change:

"“They’ve given me a broke-down baler and a vice-grip and told me to bale hay,” Schweitzer told New West Tuesday afternoon.

...

“It’s just another unfunded mandate. ‘They say ‘you’re responsible but we’re not helping and we’re taking away your assets,’” he said. “This is an administration that has it all backward. Remember Truman? … This administration says ‘by the way, I’m passing the buck to you.”"

Wish I could come up with statements like that off the cuff. Really, just the phrase "broke-down baler" is great.

I've been looking for a good west side of Manhattan city scape - without having to pay for it.

So here's my start.

Warning: it's pretty big, but it's a start. There are more buildings that I know the name of - but if you're interested in helping me out on labelling them, let me know.

Improv Everywhere Mission: Even Better Than The Real Thing:

"OK, great. So, for $20 I can pretend I’m a rockstar on the roof of an apartment building in New York City, entertain hundreds of passers-by and have a blast all the while, but a right turn onto 7th Ave. from 34th Street between 6-8 PM costs me $75. Another reason why I don’t have a car."

Princess Diana - Uncyclopedia:

"Saint Diana was known as the People's Princess of Peace. She mingled with the lowly and destitute, and her healing hands cured many a leper in her town of Windsor. [1] (http://www.aljfkds.com/leper.html)."

Rally Ends When Ump Calls Wright Out of Line - New York Times:

"INSIDE PITCH

Mike Piazza, who was not in the starting lineup, spent his free time getting a baseball autographed by the radio commentator Rush Limbaugh. 'It was like meeting George Washington,' Piazza said."

I'm sure based on Piazza's statement that we don't agree politically - and that's cool. But to compare George Washington to Rush is deplorable.

Not Exactly Baseball at Its Best, but Yankees Win - New York Times:

"Brown and Zambrano, who seemingly attended the same school of pitching, were just wild enough to be effective. Deliberate as ever, Brown baffled the Mets with his sinker and stalled them by taking regular breaks on the mound to pick mud out of his cleats."

Just noting, and wondering, about the possibility of being wild and deliberate. I'm sure you can't be wildly deliberate, but can you be deliberately wild?
