Arrows

Only in NYC will there be arrows painted on the steps in subway stations indicating which side of the staircase is for going upstairs and which side is for going downstairs. I thought it was common sense that you always walk to your right, thus, this avoids any head on collisions with people walking in the opposite direction. I would not be surprised if they started implementing this on some sidewalks in NYC especially in Times Square. The east side should be for people traveling north and the west side should be for people traveling south. (I think getting rid of the picture takers in Times Square will also aleve some of the heavy human congestion) I remember when I used to bike in Brooklyn on Ocean Parkway there used to be (and prob still are) bike lanes for specified for the direction the biker was travelling.

Although I love NY some things should be left to common sense. If the saying is true "if you don't use it, you lose it," please let the people of NY use their common sense lest they lose it!

I saw Borat for the third time tonight. It is still funny the third time around! We were supposed to go to a comedy club but when my friend told me he hadnt seen Borat we went hunting to find a theater showing the film. I think its my new mission to have all my friends see Borat.
