New York City is Hot
New York City is in the high 90s.
But nowadays, people like to talk about the "feel like" temperature. So it's 97 degrees out there, it's bad enough, but the meteorologist or the weatherman likes to give you more, like it feels like 110 or 120 or whatever, something in my mind, that's totally arbitrary.
How can you tell what I feel about the temperature?
I just like some objective reading. If the thermostat says 95, then it's 95, what are all these heat index, feel like temperature thing?
UPDATE:
It read 101F in the City in the afternoon. About the time I got home, around 7PM, it's about 94F outside my house.

We Like to Keep Our Train Dirty
In order to discourage any scum sucking yuppie from gentrifying Flushing, we like to keep our #7 train extremely dirty.Indeed it's rated the dirtiest by the straphanger report.
We only care about how often the trains arrive during morning rush, in that department, we totally rock, train frequency is clockd at every 2.5 minutes, which is a tie to the Manhattan #6 train.
Full article from the New York Times.
The World Is Coming to an End
While the world is gradually coming to an end, I still choose to blog about things I like to blog about and remain total oblivious to world suffering.
Peace out.
Peace out.

Cingular 8125
Every 2 years or so, I would do my homework on cell phone.
My latest little obsession is the Cingular 8125, which should be the same as T-Mobile's MDA. Because of untested reception and anecdotes regarding T-mobile's poor reception around where I live, so I stick with Cingular if possible.
In Flushing, most shops don't carry the phone in stock. And online, if this phone is selected, you can't uncheck any data plan, the least is 19.99 and the most expensive data plan is 39.99. I was hoping to just get a cheap voice plan and all data via free WiFi.
Guess Cingular doesn't like the idea one bit. To me, they might as well not carry the phone all together if I have to have data plan in order to buy the phone.
Do I need the Cingular 8125? Absolutely not.

Manhole breathes Fire in Woodside, Queens
Manhole is all the rage now. And I thought it only happens when a guy eats too much chilly. Video hosted in YouTube found via Gawker media.
On another unrelated, I always find the Time Warner or other cable companies' Triple Play plan oddly amusing. Triple Play, I don't know about you, I think it can be from the playbook of some sex trade. Triple Play, I like the idea ... cable TV, VoIP and Broadband Internet access ....
