Six bucks?

 

From the looks of this character, he'd probably be happy to pluck your brows with (to quote Marsellus Wallace/Ving Rhames from "Pulp Fiction") "a pair of pliers and a blowtorch" for free--just for kicks...

Whatever happened to the art of the subtle, discreet glance?

 

Apparently it's lost on this gent who must have learned his technique from the Troglodyte Player's Handbook:

 

Spot woman.

 

Stare hard at woman.

 

Snub by woman.

End of story.

 

Move on and hope for better luck with woolly mammoth hunt.

Just A Regular Joe



42nd Street and 8th Avenue.

 

Home to the Port Authority Bus Terminal and its newest tenant, the Cake Boss Cafe, the second Manhattan outpost for 4th generation bakery maestro Buddy Valastro, aka "Cake Boss", who shot to fame in The Learning Channel show of the same name.

 

Back in the day (think 1970's - 80's) though, when 42nd Street was a notorious strip dubbed "The Deuce", you wouldn't find cannolis, crumb cakes and tiramisu on this particular corner.  No, it was populated by a much different breed of businessman then, peddling wares of the sort frowned upon by polite society and men with badges. 

 

Those infamous wild west days, however, are long gone.  But the flamboyance of the era seems to have made a comeback, proving over-the-top, colorful characters like Buddy and Fly Guy here can co-exist peacefully and share the same turf.

 

And why apparently it's okay to wear white before Memorial Day.

It is often said that New York is the fashion capital of the world.

 

Although fashionistas in places like Milan, Paris and London might respectfully disagree.

 

But there is no doubt that when it comes to sartorial style, New Yorkers are always at or near the top of anyone's list.

 

Bold.  Daring.  Always pushing the envelope, breaking new ground, a step ahead of the rest of the world.

 

Then there is this Manhattanite.

 

I mean, what was he thinking?  NIKE sneakers when a pair of snazzy pumps would have complemented his minimalist mid-winter outfit perfectly? 

 

Alas, there really is no accounting for taste...
