What a snappy looking pup. 
Illegal photos from Martin Short's Broadway retrospective parody. Cameraphone photos in the dark, so you'll have to use your imagination. Above is the opening curtain.
Martin Short flying down from heaven. He is actually hanging midair in a Peter Panesque pose.
My favorite embodiment, Martin as Ed Grimley, one of his Saturday Night Live characters, was far too short.
Here he sits and sings atop the piano, which is played by one of the show's book writers. We were quite impressed by Martin Short's voice, which is amazingly strong, but often overshadowed by his humorous lyrics.
I failed to get a photo of Martin's celebrity guest this night, which was Gilbert Gottfried. He was hilarious in his spontaneous talk show style interview with Jiminy Glick, gettting huge roars of laughter with his quick comebacks.
Whew, its looking good. A lot of the windows are in, and it has a very substantial look to it, unlike Beacon Tower. We are relieved at how its turning out.
on the second floor down from the top. A year from now, we hope to be sitting out there watching the sunset.
Looking north toward Williamsburg, bridge in the distance. That's the Domino Sugar Factory on the right. The cool old brick hulk with the smokestacks sits empty on the bank of the East River.
? Look closely at the upper right corner of the rooftop. See that tiny white speck?
As the dTourist blog readership spreads, we get a photo of one of our German viewers (yes, IN Germany) catching up on the photos of Alexander Reykjavik (on computer screen).
From the first at bat, the crowd was cheering "MVP, MVP" for Jeeter. Apparently they had an inkling of what was to come.
Following Mayor Bloomberg and his entourage (they are somewhere ahead disappearing into the crowd) into Gate C of Yankee Stadium.
The firehouse on Wythe and N 8th has been closed for the last few months that I have been here, and today they were cleaning it out. Apparently it has sold. One of the long time neighbors suggested someone will probably turn it into a night club. The neighborhood is definitly changing
Cleaning out the firehouse
Tartan plaid is in the fall fashion mags this year, and here is an early local sighting. Plaid dress with ruffle front bib, dark blue sweater layered over top, and lighter blue tights. The two diferent blue tones looked great with red and blue plaid of the dress.
Long and lean, these skinny jeans are all tucked into boots of various heights, on bodies that look great in this popular trend.
Eye-catching shorts combo. Short shorts with black tights and what looks like over-the-knee boots, but is really knit leg warmers worn over black shoes or boots. Great style tip!
Accessories can make the outfit. The girl on the left is wearing a simple black and white t-shirt/sweater combination with jeans, but she has added some amazing touches. A leopard print purse (you can see the handle between her knees) which echoes the pattern of what appear to be camoflauge print boots. She added super large gold hoops and oversize sunglasses to perfectly top off the look.
Another glimpse of the leopard purse to the right of her friend, the preppy punk. He has it all going on with a mix of styles including torn jeans, layered t's and pink and brown argyle sweater vest. Its such a great outfit that his hair is giving him a standing ovation.
( Remember when they used to be called purses?)
On the left, light skirt and top anchored with dark jacket, black boots over dark tights.
It was hard to capture the brilliant sparkle of this outfit. The skirt has gold lurex thread throughout, and the shirt has small sparkly flecks across front. The two pieces looked so perfect together, glinting in the autumn sun.
