New Year’s view
Of course you want a panoramic view of Times Square on New Year’s Eve. So click here to see that. (You can also check out Glasgow, Sydney, and other locations — although for some reason evidently not Egg Harbor City, NJ.) The accompanying text says that the temperature at Times Square was one degree fahrenheit. Given the bare hands and bare legs on some of the women, I’m skeptical. (Although I know the credo: “Anything to look good.”)

For those of us old enough to have sense not to attempt Times Square on Dec. 31 (or not having the camel’s bladders, empty coke bottles or catheters required–only one of those is a joke), the temperature on NY1 news was 18 with a wind chill that made it feel like 0. As for the short skirts/long jackets/bare legs, I believe they are genetic mutations/next-stage-of-evolution that will allow our children’s children to run around the Arctic nearly naked in February… it’s the only thing that really explains the huge numbers of these attractive but seemingly foolhardy women. Perhaps, though, this anomaly of DNA exists only in XX chromosomes: I rarely see men dressed the same way…

Let me just say that not even I was in Egg Harbor City, NJ on New Year’s Eve, and that is where I receive my mail. Sadly (for me) though, was that I was in Atlantic City, NJ – where I was explaining to my friend from Ireland, that, ‘no, there is no Atlantic City equivalent to Times Square, where people gather’. When asked why, I responded, “Because it’s EMPTY and DUMB”. I had forgotten this story until I was reading on the New Year’s Eve View. If I should ever be a homeowner and reside on Indian Cabin Road, I will surely transmit the VIEW from there one New Year’s Eve most assuredly.
