The Pond at Bryant Park opens a week from this Friday. Last year was great fun. I went twice: once after my company’s holiday party when I was drunk, and another time I don’t remember. This year, we’re celebrating opening day—and also the fact that since it’s still October, we can skate without being blanketed in down, wool, Gore-Tex®, and so on. Come out and wear your best tube top.

I took my mom to the Yankees home opener at the Stadium on April 2nd. A-Rod made an error the first time he touched the ball, but the Yanks managed to beat the lackluster Devil Rays.

I found myself a guest in the home of “friends.” I was to watch the Yankee fate in high definition in a room full of Yankee haters. (more…)
