I went to bed in the East Village and woke-up in a bad xerox of mid-town turning in to a bad xerox of Dubai. Welcome to king Mike Bloomberg's hideous "new" New York. Can the people save what soul is left?
911 Tech Corruption
Scott Stringer is not qualified to be NYC gov comptroller but thanks to back room deals and fixing and favors he got the job. He removed John Liu's Press Release from May 31, 2012 asking for a criminal investigation in to 911. Cy Vance said there is no need for one. Truth is yes there is and we need yet another new audit of 911 and for years before the first audits we needed a criminal investigation in to 911 and we still do. We also need an audit and investigation in to 311 spending and Board of Election, NYCAPS, NYCWiNS, FDNY Wireless, etc.
I posted this reponse but listen to my newest YouTube and here my theories on Mike Bloomberg, how this would have cost him the election and why I think of him as SAIC's pimp!
http://ireport.cnn.com/docs/DOC-205164 Slipped thru the cracks? Just not true. Very lucky for the mayor this was not exposed until after the election and funny how Mike was pushing an insane renewal with SAIC. This iReport is from Feb. 2009 that fingers guilty stealing parties including an SAIC employee and the fact they knew CityTime was a doomed failure but a cash cow for them. On my newest YouTube I give you insights in to Mike Bloomberg and the White House a theory about much more stolen. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZwFiZ4gp80 Thanks Suzannah B. Troy
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZwFiZ4gp80 My newest YouTube in a series and I lay it on Bloomberg and explain why. I went to the iReport link I found here by a commentor who fingers an SAIC consultant. I am part of a group that feels way more was stolen and not necessarily by these consultants but by others because of the massive over spending seems like a no brainer except to our billionaire mayor. I also made a tube about SAIC and The MTA demanding the MTA put SAICs spending and progress report on their website but it is a corrupt deal.
Welcome to Misogynist NYC! Shame on Paterson and truly he should be huddled with defense attorney to fight not to go to jail for ever so quietly and gently intimidating a victim in to silence. Now he quietly fires his best buddy and that makes 2 on the payroll with 911 calls on their resume because of women that were fearful. Thanks Elliot Spitzer for screwing how many millions of NYers as well as your sexworkers.
Maybe there is some colony of protozoa that want to be ruled by a group of corrupt politicos posing as human beings. I say this because they put every greedy ruthless developer, financial player with the conscious of a serial killer before the people of NYC. To say Mike Bloomberg is the real estate mayor aiding and abetting NYU, Columbia U. and Cooper Union in abusing eminent domain or air sales or any kind of shady land grab horizontal or vertical all fueled by greed and ruthlessness is an understatement and ditto for Brooklyn and Willets point in Queens. Like Mike go to Mars and try the same thing!
Bloomberg mind set -- thinking he is king of NYC and the nanny little emperor as well is proof he would be returning home. Is the NY Post ever going to do a piece on why Cy Vance and John Haggerty's defense attorneys never served Mike Bloomberg with a subpoena for those 62 emails the NYPost originally asked for and how oops Mike also broke campaign laws? Can we have deputy mayor Patricia Harris swear under oath about the hours she works for NYC gov vs. Mike's charity with the understanding perjury carries jail time? Mike should be drug tested if he thinks he is the greatest mayor.
Made this YouTube in response: Mike Bloomberg for President? Jail him!!!! Check it out Suzannahartist YouTubeland. Do you think Mike the control freak pays people to by cyber thugs for him? If he did that would be like breaking campaign laws -- it cares jail time if the NYPD, Cy Vance and FEDs enforce the law!
FYI: Columbia U. with the help of mayor bloomberg, socialite city planner Amanda the people's Burden and tax payer's black hole scott stringer are abusing eminent domain to displace the entire neighborhood of Manhattanville. Even David Dinkins who fought Columbia U. has motivated by a pay-off from Columbia U. so isn't nice to know that what NYers are being forced out of their neighborhood college kids are dealing drugs in their dorm?
I am a Jew and here in NYC I am a Jew fighting to save Churches! Go figure. I think Rome has more money than God so why did Rome okay selling off churches here in NYC like they were having a bake sale.
As you know I fought for St. Ann's at 120 East 12th Street writing everyone from the Pope on down. The USPS owned the air rights and sold the air over St. Ann's for millions to NYU without notifying the State of NY which was illegal because the site was historic from 1847 so the USPS had to notify the State and the State would have come in and investigated and decided is this air sale in the best interests of the community but the greed of NYU and the USPS was more important than the community.

Jeter is angry? The tax payers are angrier. Can we get a refund for passionless play and every time they don't win despite bloated salaries and why doesn't Jeter pay back the tax payers forced to pay for a stadium we did not want and most can't afford a beer and a hot dog let alone a seat! The Yankees have to many spoiled players that are not what they Yankees were once about like Munson pure heart and a family man. If the Yankees don't win they should have to pay a huge fine like more than half of their salary to the City of NY and we can give it for raises for NYPD, FDNY, Teachers, School Programs, homelessness, senior citizens, handicapped, people w/AIDS, libraries.
I LOVE THURMON MUNSON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hugely!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And Babe Ruth!!!!! Did you know he was such a great pitcher but the people wanted to see Babe play every game so his coaches stopped him from pitching! They also had to finally tell the Babe to stop eating in the dug out!!!!!!!! giggle giggle.
Mike Bloomberg even made Babe Ruth's ghost homeless!!!!!!!!! Impeach Bloomberg!!!!!!
Notwithstanding Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s promise to relocate many of the Willets Point small businesses, he has now owned up to the fact it was all a charade. As a holiday present, notices have been sent to many of the businesses requiring them to vacate the area by Nov. 30, effectively making them all unemployed. This should come as no surprise since Bloomberg has made it clear he has no mayoral interest in the poor; no interest in the middle class; and no interest in small businesses. His constituency is limited to the rich and fat cat real estate moguls.
In passing, it should be noted Bloomberg has been Mayor for about nine years. Can anyone point to a half a dozen things he has accomplished in that period of time that has significantly improved the lives of the poor, the middle class and the small business person? I doubt it and in my opinion history will not judge him kindly, justifiably so.
I bought art today in Union Square Park. It was freezing out. http://suzannahbtroy.blogspot.com/2010/11/miriam-wests-art-written-up-in-conde.html The link above is from Conde Nast's Architectural Mag that includes Miriam's photos in best design buys under 100. The art boxes are over 100 dollars and up folks. You can see I am happy!!!!!!!!
by the way Bloomberg City of NY are in round 2 of being sued for throwing out the requirement that the commissioner of DOB no longer have an architecture degree or engineering degree.....
Mike Bloomberg explain to me what you will say to kids if they ask you about term limits, breaking campaign laws and why your best friend and money manager was involved in NY Pensions accused of pay to play and why your BF Steve RAttner pleaded the 5th more times than you have been mayor 62 times which reminds me their are 62 emails you sent to Haggerty you refuse to turn over to the NY Post and why isn't Cy Vance and Haggerty's defense attorney asking you to turn over the 62 emails. Could these emails bring you and your deputy mayors and campaign staff down as in you would yanked from you 1 dollar a year job as mayor?
Dave Paterson should be fearful of not going to jail. NYC came in last of 50 states for voter turn-out. The only issue NYer tolerate more than corrupt and ineffective politicians is violence towards women. This guy threw every bit of $ he could towards friends and family starting with benefiting his father and many very pretty girl friends that I am sure were just girl friends and worse were his guy friends who at least had two 911 calls by women afraid for their safety on their resumes. In my opinion Paterson is guilty of quietly and gently intimidating a woman to not testify against his BF. He also wasted so much money when he was not directing tax payer $ his nearest and dearest including large amount of state troopers to guard his massive ego. I despise Mike Bloomberg for all his corrupt dealings including pushing through third term with slush and intimidation w/Quinn's help + breaking campaign laws but at least Mike is intelligent but why aren't these guys and Christine Quinn and gang behind bars already? Spitzer screwed an entire state of people and Paterson should be fearing jail.

Mike Bloomberg's solution is to give people in massive debt. a loan!!!!
No wonder he and his gang used empty stores as campaign offices...how convenient!
Walking around NYC this morning I was stunned to see how many more stores are empty and one favorite of mine is getting ready to close. They just can't afford the super high jacked up rent so they are getting ready to go.
Heart breaking....
It looks like a major catastrophe has hit NYC and it has....Mike Bloomberg's ruling class....
This is the mayor who closed fire houses and put them up for sale after Sept. 11 while he pushed a reckless tsunami of development and we have had a record number of infrastructure breaks and problems that of course the FDNY has to respond to. Mike Bloomberg is burdening the tax payers to the tune of 2 million dollars to pay for his campaign staff and he should lay them off and re-imburse the city. I want a running ticker of how much defense attorney are costing the city for Christine Quinn and her staff some who got approval to use Sullivan & Cromwell the same firm that Goldman Sachs uses. I would rather Scott Stringer be cut than close a fire house over night and city employees use public transportation rather than be chauffeured around. At a state and city level corruption is costing tax payers a fortune and we maybe paying with our lives.
I rented the Spitzer movie and you can find my review on my blogs but what I noticed is with this and with the Charlie Sheen sex debacles here and in LA and an article by J. Molly in The NY Daily News about this behavior sex and even drugs going on in the swank hotels here in NYC and even some of the staffers allegedly facilitate the arrival of services, etc.... I am sure I read Molly's piece on that but she left out male sex workers. Hey I am sure there are some women that hire women or men for their pleasure and every combination that you and I can't imagine or even care to -- so what is my point?
Even in the movie Client 9 they point out other politicians did what Spitzer did but they did not have to step down. It appears Spitzer had just alienated way too many people with his empirical ways.
I just wonder how many closeted gay male politicians and movers and shakers do the same thing Elliot Spitzer did and never got busted. If they were it would be also embarrassing perhaps if these gay or bi-sexual men were exposed and the press looked in to their stance on gay marriage etc.
I am Jewish so I am using the Yiddish work KVEL -- beam with Pride....Miriam West is Japanese American and I am not her Jewish Mother but I am soooo proud of Miriam West!!!!!!
I love her ART, I love her great caring compassion heart and her activism so I was so thrilled to be in Union Square the other day when she sold one of her unique assemblage art works to someone who really had thought deeply about her work and which piece she was going to purchase! I was so happy for Miriam and now this news!!!!!
Miriam has the most amazing photos of NYC and she colorizes them in a magnificent way and you can buy a print or wear them as necklaces that have 2 sides sometimes a spiritual message on the other side.
She makes magnificent art jewelry including uses pieces that have to do with time like keys to clocks but do to the very strict laws under emperor Bloomberg she is not allowed so sell her stunning art jewelry in Union Square Park....these are the times we live in.
Any way great, great news!!!!!!! Congratulations to Miriam West my favorite Art Super Star....ehem, except for me of course...giggle xoxoxoxo!

Click here to read text portion -- the * was removed and Maris beat out my favorite Yankee Babe Ruth and he did it honestly and with integrity which is more than I can say for Bloomberg 62 and Rattner 62!!!!
Mike Bloomberg's mini-me corrupt Christine Quinn who pushed through a third term using slush and intimidation is ok with Mike's pick? Watch my YouTube Christine Quinn for mayor. I have a laugh track a photo of Mike standing behind Quinn -- I ask you do you ever get the feeling Mike Bloomberg is pulling the strings? Quinn is aggressively fund raising to be mayor aka Mike's 4th term. He wants to run the city from the golf course via his puppet Quinn.
Why did The New York Post removed the hilarious photo of Lady Gaga as Hillary Clinton?
The photo below of Gaga is by Kido/NPG.com
Who knows? The New York Post must have buried it along with their reporter David Seifman's request to the City to have Mike Bloomberg turn over 62 emails he sent to Haggerty. The NY Post buried the story and it should be the Manhattan DA asking for the emails.
bootysurgeon has made a comment on <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RKfD0tRJZ3g&feature=email">Giuseppi Logan, I give him a copy of Sound to Noise, GL tells me about generous NYC:</a>
<b>The head of Satan's Dance is one of the most beautiful melodies I've ever heard. Thanks for tracking him down and posting this. Logan's a treasure that should not be lost.</b>
Bloomberg needs to resign. He did not keep his promises and he is all smoke and mirrors. Right now SAIC wants 110 million Sept. 30 to continue with an Orwellian Time Clock for city employees that does not work and won't save the city money for at least 50 years but makes consultants with no time clock very rich moving towards the billion dollar mark of tax payers money but Bloomberg wants to sign with SAIC -- a big federal company with some big scandals on it's resume - feels like a white collar crime against tax payer. The NY Post exposed Bloomberg wiring money out of his personal account to the Independence Party funneled to Haggerty and the NY Post forced Cy Vance to do his job why has the Manhattan DA not served Mike Bloomberg, Kevin Sheekey, Wolfson, etc. with subpoenas? Is this like Bloomberg trying to make the Deutsche Bank law suits go away- Firemen Bobby Beddia and Joseph Graffagnino's family. Is king Bloomberg going to make his Watergate go away? If we don't get one democrat who can beat Quinn in the primary run and not a group to split the vote we will have Bloomberg running the city through a woman that helped him deny us a referendum also criminal in my opinion. Mike will run the city for a 4th term from the golf course but he should resign now and belongs in prison with everyone that aided and abetted him for campaign improprieties, denying us a referendum and 109 million and real estate dealings to his buddies who insisted he deny us a referendum all need to be investigated.
Adrian Grenier first documentary on finding his Dad and I thought the film was terrific! http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20037890,00.html Grenier is on a roll. Another good documentary. This is about a 13 year old paparazzo boy in Hollywood. He takes us inside visiting his parents who live separately and they look like they had this boy late in life. Austin is 13 years old going on 40 and he makes serious money. Austin is stunning. He is just a gorgeous boy. He has to be the most stunning paparazzo as well as the youngest. Grenier interviews an older paparazzo from the Lower East Side and asks him to give Austin advice. He said try and get as much money from your agency and than go in to business for yourself. There is no doubt that he will. The older paparazzo from the Lower East Side stops and says to Adrian Grenier - I want to be you but he lacks Grenier's good looks so you get the vibe on some level following the celebrities around he has been living vicariously through them. Austin is so beautiful he could be the next Adam Grenier with a successful HBO tv show. Concerns are brought up for his safety but Austin has street smarts and survivor skills plenty of people will never develop. He has also promised his parents to never do drugs. Smart move. Grenier's first documentary is far more compelling because finding his Dad is far more moving but Grenier is not an empty headed vapid Hollywoo-wood type so he gives the subject matter more depth and complexity than you might imagine....and yes there is some compassion. Celebrity and paparazzo have a symbiotic relationship. They do need each other to make money but I do believe there needs to be laws to protect people and keep them and their loved ones, especially children of celebrities safe. Alec Baldwin is the only one honest enough to say they photographs help their career. There is no doubt some have gotten out of hand and they are endangering people's lives. This kid is a gem what ever he does with his life...I am interested.
HBO's Boardwalk Empire episode 2 was awful. The first episode was surprisingly good except for the way women's semi-naked to a naked dead body were treated visually but their stock has dropped. Because there is nothing on I may have to tune back in but really not interested.
What was very good but very hard to deal with was Winter's Bones. The violence was hard to deal with as was the abject poverty, the lack of any quality of life, stark but sometimes beautiful imagery, such an unusual film where everyone told me the ending would surprise me. It did but not the way people had suggested to me. I found a lot about this film surprising and unusual including the young lead who is very promising. I hope she, Jennifer Lawrence, gets an Oscar nomination for her role. The supporting cast was excellent as well and I won't forget them anytime soon.
Some of the gaunt druggies reminded me of some of the East Village characters you see roaming the streets and visiting the chess boards of Tompkins Square Park. But in this film you get to see a bit of how drug addiction and dealing impact the families.
The movie is not uplifting and mostly depressing but you can't feel depressed because the lead, a young woman or a girl on the verge of womanhood is such a survivor. She reminded me of Lisbeth in the Girl With the Dragon Tattoo Triology but of course this gal is not techno-saavy.
The New York Times reporter never asks king Mike Bloomberg which bloggers are you referring to? Which blog pieces, give us an example Mike of what you find so upsetting?
The Village Voice blog picked up the blogger part of the NYTimes piece and further down you can read what I posted on both the NYTimes and Village Voice but first let's rewind to a YouTube I made that told viewers don't believe what the media is reporting...I talked about voter anger which the press was not reporting and that Mike Bloomberg might not win....May 4, 2009
Why are the papers refusing to report the news and when they do they than bury the story.
Why hasn't Mike Bloomberg been given a subpoena to turn over 62 emails?
And I would imagine the DA would want his staff to turn over emails they sent to Haggerty as well?
Why is the press not asking Bloomberg questions like this and about Steve Rattner being possible banned by the SEC and what will Mike do about his investments managed by Rattner....
We know Mike is less than forth coming about many things..
The New York Times published 9 letters of mine but now they are like communist Russia or Bloomberg-Rattner run so I don't even know if this comment will make it past their censors..
Interesting reporting and Bloomberg is never asked which blogger and what blog pieces is he referring to?
http://www.observer.com/2010/politics/secret-campaign-mayor-mike?page=0 Ari Roston' s piece is the best and most damming. You must read "TO FULLY UNDERSTAND the Bloomberg arrangement is to pick at some old threads from the mayor's 2005 election. Then, the mayor was running as a Republican, rather than an "independent," and spent $78 million to beat out Democratic challenger Fernando Ferrer. It turns out, Mr. Bloomberg funded another ballot security operation-helmed by Mr. Haggerty-in that race as well. In that case, Mr. Bloomberg made two $400,000 donations to the New York State Republican Party's "Housekeeping Account." (Those parallel the two $600,000 donations he would make in 2009 to the Independence Party.) In turn, the Republican Party paid $200,000 in "poll watcher" fees to an apparently unincorporated company called Campaign Resources. Located at 205 Montague Street, in downtown Brooklyn, it used the address of the law office of the late Robert Allan Muir, Mr. Haggerty's attorney and friend."
David Seifman's exclusive a home runs and the newest buried about emails Mike won't hand over. My 2 comments calling for FBI & Justice Dept. to come in removed.

If the expenditures were to aid the campaign," said Laufer, Bloomberg "had to report them either one way or the other," as a committee expenditure or the personal expenditure of a candidate. The section cited by Laufer makes it a Class A misdemeanor for "any candidate" not to file a sworn statement "as to all moneys paid, given or expended to aid his own nomination or election," and specifically includes "contributions to political committees."

BloombergGate Hits Home
Has Haggerty has decided to take everyone down with him or is he trying to get the heavyweights involved to stop his investigation? Stay Tuned
Indicted campaign aide John Haggerty points finger at Mayor Bloomberg's former deputy mayor
"Mayor Bloomberg's political mastermind was outed in court papers Friday as the architect of a plan to hide $1.1 million in Election Day poll-watching. Indicted campaign aide John Haggerty said in a 41-page motion that former Deputy Mayor Kevin Sheekey convinced Bloomberg to hire the state Independence Party to do the monitoring - instead of using his own campaign team."
Mike Bloomberg holds the strings to Cy Vance's office and Cy Campaign guy Guma married to Maura Keaney. See my youtube series on this because Maura worked with Haggerty.

BLOOMBERG'S LONG-DISPUTED UCT-911 SYSTEM COMPLETELY COLLAPSED DUE TO CALL VOLUME!!!

New 911 Dispatch System Can't Stand Up to High Volume
By ARI PAUL
The Bloomberg administration's streamlining of 911 dispatch operations has hit another roadblock.
Daily News columnist Juan Gonzalez reported Sept. 1 that a computer program provided by a Verizon subcontractor failed quality-assurance testing, which could lead to a termination of its $195-million contract.
'Breaks Down If Saturated'
"When the new software gets saturated with calls for [the Emergency Medical Service] and police, it can't handle the load and the system starts dropping calls," and in a "big public emergency...it would just break down."
The $2-billion project is meant to shave seconds off emergency response times, and it includes the Unified Call Taker system, which Fire Department unions have condemned, saying that it resulted in units being sent to wrong addresses.
Patrick J. Bahnken, who as president of Local 2507 of District Council 37 represents Emergency Medical Technicians and Paramedics, was doubtful that the overhaul was necessary, saying the "old system worked fine." He then asked, "Was it possible to enhance the existing system?"
Department of Information, Technology and Telecommunications Commissioner Carole Post said in a statement, "We have not made a decision. However, we are extremely dissatisfied that Verizon has failed to deliver on this contract. There is no room for anything less than a 100-percent success rate with this program. Verizon has presented us with some options; we are evaluating them."
The opening scene rocked the house for me. Without spilling the beans for those who might not have seen the episode....Sookie-Eric scene sizzling superb...thank goodness, superb...now I can really look forward to next season!
I knew one way or another Eric would be back...I just like this way better!
Sookie, Sookie, Sookie, we have all been there....surprise he lied and lied and lied to you...
True Death, True Blood, truly fantastic...this season finale a thousand times better than last seasons and I can't wait until next season...wish it was next season...next Sunday!
p.s. Alan Ball, the big daddy of True Blood thanks for fans for being the best and gives us some exciting vamp news and politics, politics, politics and excitement to look forward to next season!!!! This season was superb and I enjoyed tonight so much!
Lies, character assassination, paying people to commit perjury...and more.

Why and how do we need to do to get people in NY to throw the bums out?
1) Making following politics mandatory?
2) Make the voting booth a piece of technology attached to our tv sets that we can sign in using our thumb print and vote from home?
3) Find ways to inspire people with integrity that are devoted to the community to run?
How do we do that and often some or many people that start off good are now mired in corruption up to their eyeballs so how do we prevent this. I continue to say term-limits but here in NYC the mayor who would be king has allowed city council and his charter revision commission to circumvent voters literally denying us a referendum and extending term-limits this year for city council yet again 2 years in a row!
I made two YouTubes about this...so tired of pasting links...go look at my channel Suzannahartist.
4) New Yorkers tolerance for corruption is greater than our tallest sky scrapers....
5) Why do to many people feel it is a given that politicians are crooks and it is accepted they can live high off our tax payer money, even robbing it and using their position in city gov. to broker lucrative deals the benefit their families, girlfriends, boyfriends, mistresses, relatives, friends, etc.?
6) A cap for all spending for candidates so no mega rich can buy an election.
The newspapers write about throwing the bums out but very few actually cover the challengers.
Remember candidate Doug Biviano made a video about this and went to major media companies where all refused to have him interviewed and worse an NBC employee who knew he was being filmed and works security -- reception but he wants to be called an information something or other was told by an NBC employee -- perhaps someone senior who wanted this YouTube REMOVED and the gentleman who's face was seen in all of 7 seconds in an almost 10 minute youtube --- even met with NBC lawyers too all adding up to what....? Would NBC execs go to extreme lengths to have candidate Doug Biviano's YouTube removed ? Do you think....? Doug's YouTube was moving towards to 1,000 hits was censored by a media giant....?
The YouTube is gone but watch the censored version.
Truly what is going on in Albany and City Hall is a nightmare and most people don't get it but they will be feeling the pain next year, everyone will but mayor Bloomberg, his rich developer pals, city council members and the clowns in Albany.
By the way did Albany balance their budget yet. It was due April 1, 2010. April Fool's Day....
Posted this comment to NY Daily News editorial today....Start a Revolution (If only!!!!!!!!)
1) We need computerized mini-voting machines attached to our Televisions with a sign in using your thumb print. Maybe that way we could get more people to actually vote. 2) We need a cap on what all candidates can spend to run for office and it has to be small especially if tax payers have to match a percentage. 3) Term Limits 4) reality tv show following these politicians around and the price of how much tax payer money they are wasting as they go about their days 5) expose how they hire their family members, lovers, pals 6) expose how the benefit themselves, family, etc with lucrative deals that are huge conflicts of interest. 8) something to shake-up voter apathy
Okay, I still have not download one song...maybe I am waiting for a song she sings with little to no special effects, just her voice but you can tell I enjoy writing about her. So does The New York Post. Today the paper has two full pages with photos and an excerpt from a new biography, "Poker Face" do out. http://www.nypost.com/p/news/local/gaga_grab_for_glory_HnM5UCKsU1AE1uPvPj0UAI
and The New York Daily News in "Viral Buzz" talks about Lady Gaga is up for a record 13 video music award nods.
Good luck Lady Gaga. I have yet to buy a song....If she does a piece that is just her singing with no special effects...something soulful let me know.
I do love that 6th grade boy singing her song Paparazzi -- superb. Would love to buy a duet of the two of them singing this song.
Lady Gaga dropped out of NYU and that was a good move because I call NYU, the evil empire, the purple reign of terror....NYU mega dormed the East Village to death. Visit 120 East 12th Street, next door to where I live for 20 years....see the facade of St. Ann's from 120 East 12th Street with the hideous ugly NYU mega dorm....NYU mega dormed the East Village to death, yes indeed, NYU the evil empire has torn down every historic building, displacing our communities....the only thing mayor Bloomberg, socialite, mega-millionaire city planner Amanda the people's Burden and John 1.8 million (his salary) Sexton, pres. of NYU have not down is provide NYU trolleys and buses to move us out. At least they have not sent us to concentration camps but NYU is responsible for the destruction of the Village East and West and other universities and developers have followed NYU's lead.
I went to bed in the East Village and I woke up in a bad xerox of mid-town turning into a bad xerox of Dubai.
Glad to hear Lady Gaga dropped out of NYU. Good luck at the Video Music Awards...
Say it ain't so! No, way can True Blood, True Bloodiness, True Love, Truly Bloody Good be over and out for 2010. Okay I can comfort myself next year a new even hotter, sexier fabulous season will be back but what am I suppose to do until than? Someone please tell me.
I am watching "Sons of Anarchy" but the cast isn't as buff, not very sexy and the series is not delving in to the complexity of human relations but it an infamous biker make-over of Hamlet. Sons of Anarchy, season 3 started last week so I am using the show to help me cope with the horror of no True Blood next week.
I love True Blood for the most part, except the end of season 2 but True Blood is way too bloody for me and I want to use my imagination... (For those without a funny bone who are prudes don't read on.) The "makers" of True Blood never delve in to why the Vamps are not beside themselves with joy over our (women's) monthly visit that has us seeing red....Sorry but that is my bad humor. I just image Eric and a raunchy scene on that topic matter; very raunchy scene.
Sam flipping out last week touched a chord with so many of us sick of being a door mat although I couldn't help feel sorry for his little brother.
Eric one of my favorites maybe history tonight as he succeeds in revenging his family's murder but as we know the creators of True Blood have found ways to make some wonderful characters reappear so I comfort myself with the idea if he does perish tonight because he needs sunblock that Sookie will be having some very sexy Eric dreams that will be so hot smoke will be coming out of your TV set.
I love Bill and he appears to be such a gentleman but come on, anyone who is investigating your family tree has go to be suspect!!!!! I know you True Romance types don't want to read my cynical pondering and I bet in the long run thangs will work out (things & thangs) but I don't hold Bill in the same esteem I did.
The first season was superb but his season was beyond with the addition of new top rate actors, tighter, sharper scripts and more. Be back tonight after the season ends to write more... Say it ain't over for this year...please...Can't they start Season 4 next week?
