I would like to bring a few things of interest to your attention. NYC is such a heavily travelled city that it cannot afford to have any of the escalators in public places NOT work! Do you know how painful it is to walk down a thousand stairs at LaGuardia with luggage? And then take a Subway only to realize the up and down escalators are BROKE?!?! Yay! Great! You walk down another thousand stairs and climb up a million... still lugging your stuff along! Bad NYC, bad! Is this how you behave with guests? I am sorry Mr. Mayor, but I think that's plain mean! It's been one of my biggest grouses with Penn Station forever now. LaGuardia, sadly, just added itself to the list :(

And what's with all the cabs changing shift AT rush hour?!?!? It's practically impossible to find a cab without an "Off Duty" sign lit up around that time! C'mon! It's rush hourdammit! You can't do that! Especially not if the temperature has anything less than 2 digits in it or has that dreaded minus sign in front of it!

Oh! and would it kill ya to mandate the presence of Starbucks in every building? They're at every corner anyway! They sure can have some more! Its pretty evident they're needed too at places where you have those never ending lines. It would be kind if you could enforce call-in delivery for Starbucks when the aforementioned temperature conditions apply.

And can someone please tell me what the hell that installation at the atrium behind Trump Towers is? Please do not tell me that is art cos it AIN'T!!! Bach!?! Excuse me! That's not how Bach sounds! Now I don't mean to trivialize the effort that went into building it, but is it really worth it?

Yours Painfully,
