Last Friday, I couldn’t make the worship event at Trinity Grace, so I went to visit the moneychangers instead.
For my many non-native New Yorker friends, the Limelight opened in 1844 as the Holy Communion Episcopal Church, starting in the 19th century. Eventually, the church passed out of the Lord's hands, and housed the notorious Limelight nightclub.
After a season of debauchery and a season of abandonment, the sanctuary enters a season of shopping.
Until last week, this was the ambulance entrance at St. Vincent's Hospital in Chelsea. Now, the doors have been boarded over, and the ambulances sit ready to transport those in need of medical attention to Bellevue or St. Luke's-Roosevelt.
At the end of Bent Fest tonight, I was asked to lend my “brooming skills” to help clean up a projector. This hunk of WIN was waiting for me at the scene of crime. The final performer had opened his act by chainsawing this projector in half. Unfortunately, I was clear on the other side of the (cavernous) room, and only heard a loud ROAR of applause.
Good news and bad news. Bad news first: Axe Clinical Protection anti-perspirant DOES NOT WORK. But it did put this shirt on the express train to the laundromat.
Good news: Walgreens has an excellent return policy.
Pics from the weekend coming soon.
I took a jaunt to White Plains this afternoon for an unsuccessful Walmart run (you do NOT need a car to get there, but you DO need all day to do it via public trans.); and stopped in at the Panera Bread down the block. This passive-aggressive piece of WIN was stuck to the back of the men’s room door.
I went to the New York International Auto Show this evening to help staff a booth for the Museum of the City of New York, and got a few pictures while wandering around pre-shift.
With no further ado:
The A-Team van, on display at the Will-Call booth.
My self-portrait, from the eyes up, behind the wheel of a Chevy Impala.
My coffee, nestled next to the gearshift of a Ford Flex
A Mini Cooper, tethered to its spot on the floor with rope. Those crafty Brits!
A car model explaining the miles-per-gallon of a sensible-looking sedan to several curious kids.
That’s all, folks! The full monty can be found on my Flickr page.
