The Subway Sings Somewhere
Today’s song is The Subway Sings Somewhere, the latest addition to my new genre of music, “electromonica.” Although this is probably closer to “industromonica.” New York City’s newer computerized subway cars, first introduced about five years ago, have a new … Continue reading
Slumdog Oscars
I saw Slumdog Millionaire last week, after realizing I hadn’t seen a single one of the Oscar nominees for best picture. I guess I picked the right one to see, but I can’t say that I liked the film very … Continue reading

You Got To Move (The Alternate-Side Parking Song)
If you’re a New York City car owner, my sixth FAWM song needs no explanation. Otherwise, you need to know that we have “alternate-side parking” rules, which forbid parking on one side or the street or the other on certain … Continue reading
