Thanks. For this I'm going to buy a new car, double park it outside your houses, and lean on the horn.

LOL. I realized this was was bogus because I can't do a cartwheel to save my life. But I would be willing to sing all four versus of "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue"!

I had just watched " Violent NYPD arrests at NYC Critical Mass" on YouTube, and was pretty sad about the world.

I was sooo happy for a few minutes there.

Yeah,

um,

you suck.

This totally doesn't jibe with what I read about plans to drill for oil in Central Park. I think maybe Bloomberg is talking out of two sides of his face to appease differing interests.

If I'm reading that George Haikalis has been appointed to a seat in DOT, then it must be April 1st - or that I am the new mayor.

Should have had one more cup of coffee before reading SB today. I guess you knew you're an optimist when you fall for something like this so readily

Did Mr. Coughlin also sing "Hey, Mr. Tamborine Man"?

Wow, this is huge, huge news!! I also just heard that David Hasselhoff was appointed to take the place of Ray Kelly thanks to his excellent detective work in "Nightrider". Kit the car will be cloned and the entire squad of NYPD vehicles will be demolished.

Okay, you guys had me until I noticed that the blue sky in the photo didn't match what I was seeing out my window -- and I remembered the date.

Well done. If only it were true....
