- My cabbie out a window to a Carmel driver: "You are a slow driver. I think you drive in Queens or Brooklyn. You are not fit for Manhattan." #
- Off to JFK. Interesting route: Union Sq to FDR to Brooklyn-Battery Tunnel to Gowanus to Belt to Shore, under the VZ. Folly or genius? #
- It's the long way around but no traffic to speak of. Driver tells me there was an accident and bad traffic in Queens. #
- A lovely 73F on this Abu Dhabi evening. #
- Disappointing: Arsenal's uninspired performance against Barcelona. #
- Equally disappointing: referee's decision to reduce Arsenal to 10 men on one of the softest 2nd yellow cards in memory. #
- Are there NO adequate soccer referees out there? Every game I watch is marred by poor judgments by the referee or linesmen. Every game. #
