I'm sure you've all heard stories...and if you live in NYC or another city you've probably experienced a few of your own. Sometimes it's a seemingly normal person cranking out an opera song in the middle of rush hour. Sometimes it's a ragged looking guy licking the subway window. You never know what will happen. This is one of the things that I love about NYC. So here goes...a document of my subway observations. Enjoy. ~Monkeyboy~

3.03.05

Today's subway ride was fairly uneventful until I got to the 53rd/5th Ave stop for the E/V. As I got off the train and went towards the stairs amidst the herd of people I saw a VERY tall african-american woman get to the stairs rolling a suitcase behind her. She was 8 feet to my left, but I got a good look at her since she towered above the rest of the herd. She was at least 6 feet tall, most likely around 6'2", wearing sunglasses and a very long fur coat. I noticed a slight bulge on "her" neck and realized that "she" was most likely a he.

As she got to the stairs a small(5'6" or so) asian man came up behind "her" grabbed "her" suitcase and helped "her" up the stairs. "She" seemed to be quite appreciative and they chatted as he helped "her" up the escalator. He was on the stair above "her" and they were now equal height.

See, not all New Yorkers are rude and inconsiderate.

That is all. Nothing too exciting today.
