Yesterday was busy busy busy. At work, we opened a new playground in the Midwood section of Brooklyn. The ribbon cutting was held after a million-dollar renovation and featured the usual amount of pomp, circumstance, Oreos and juice boxes. Then last night, Roslyn and I went down to Little Italy to check out the San Gennaro Festival. It’s quite the boisterous atmosphere with crowds, loud music, restaurant owners begging passersby to choose their restaurant, and carnies gypping patrons of their money with rigged carnival games. But that’s what makes it all so much fun!

Funny line of the day :
A crowd of Jewish kids in yarmulkes is asked a question and they are waving their hands, waiting to be called on. The person who asked the question points to one of them and says, "Yes, you in the hat."
