Jayne ,'The Train Job'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I blame that stupid ass commerical where the guy sprays himself and then chips off a layer of skin.
I saw that one for the first time the other day. cree-pee!
In matters such as this, it's best to be sure.
you could be sure that i would walk as quickly as i could in the other direction!
15 of whom are drenched in axe and the other 15 who are wearing whatever shit was on sale at Bed and Body Works, 5 for $25.
oh god! my sympathies.
Everyone seen this spinning dancer thing? [link] It's freaking me out.
Does anyone know what this Scarlet Series thing is. Is it just annoying viral marketing?
Ugh. Hate Axe.
NYistas, does the PATH train go from the Newark airport to Lower Manhattan? I think I can get a much cheaper flight into Newark than to JFK.

It goes from Penn Station in Newark to the WTC station. I'm not sure how close Penn Station is to the airport. I'd bet there's some kind of shuttle between the train station and the airport, though.

Not directly. You have to take the monorail to the Newark Airport train station, which can take you to either the PATH station in Newark (and then downtown), or you can stay on the train and go to midtown Manhattan.
But be ready that they will pork you on the train ticket. Last year for NYCC Ms Havisham and I stayed out at the Newark Airport, but this year we stayed at a more expensive hotel one stop closer to NYC. Why? Because one way tickets cost $16 each one way to the airport, but go one stop further out or in, they become $4.
The people I'm visiting live in Battery Park City, so I should probably take the monorail to the train station to the PATH station to the WTC--That's pretty close to the Verdesian, right?

Not only is it close, they just moved the PATH station entrance to be even closer.
I do not currently have a high estimation of humanity. Guy collapsed next to me as I was heading to my car after work, and it was appalling how little most people wanted to be involved. An old guy (well, just 62, but he looked ancient) collapses and is barely coherent, and folks just scatter. I couldn't even be pissed at the lack of clarity that the people who stayed behind displayed-at least they were there.
And then there was the lovely security guard who wouldn't open the main lobby door nearest the fallen guy. He shrugged and said we could walk him around the long way, but he knew we couldn't really. I heard him on the phone saying he didn't want to have anything to do with it.
Of course, when we flagged down a passing cop car, the door got opened right quick. And I'm glad to say one of the cops was mad enough to say he was going to talk to the guard's supervisor about his callousness.
Poor guy.
I had to call home and talk to my (older) parents and tell them not to collapse in the street.
