DR JoseSPiano - the gym where I go has individual televisions [with headphones] for each piece of aerobic excercise equipment.  I'm not dedicated enough to admit that without that, I would find the time I spend excercising absolutely unendurable.   :-\

Walking the dog, though, I don't mind.  Zach and I walk an average of 5 miles a day.

I suspect NYC residents walk a lot more daily than most average folk.

I will be largely E&T Friday and Saturday, as I will be in New Jersey with my Mom doing our annual holiday baking.

Love the Mamma Mia! trailer - I'm looking forward to the movie.  My guilty pleasure.

Sounds like fun, DR Singdaw.  Glad you're home out of the elements today - I'm hoping for something like that on Saturday.  Yeah, right.

WHOA!  The NBC affiliate is currently showing footage from various places around the New York region.  That's some traffic!

My gym has the same set-up.  Well, the rowing machines don't have the TV screens.  I sometimes will bring a set of headphones so I can watch the news if I go in the morning, but I tend not to watch or listen to anything.  I tend to not work as hard as I should when I try to watch something on TV and workout at the same time.  I tend to slow down to the pace of the program.  Watching the clock countdown is my motivation.

*And you should also remember that your hearing is a bit more sensitive while you exercise.  Always check those volume levels.

Whew!  DR GINNY the snow should start early enough on Friday....that your Saturday plans can be made or unmade before any travel is necessary.

Snow in NYC......yes I can see it on my TV screen.  Usually we have it first, but this time it's you!

Very interested to hear MR BK's take on THE KID FROM BROOKLYN after his visit this evening.  I have mixed feelings about a Danny Kaye impression passing as a show.....

DR KERRY that link you posted yesterday had some very scary - and familiar - images!!!

DR RLP haz arrived at his destination.

Lots of reports on snowfall all around the city, but no report yet on how many inches they're expecting at the Central Park Reservoir.

DR Edisaurus - rejoicing with you on the good job news!  :)  :)  :)

Will you be in the NYC area in late January, or elsewhere in the state?

We'll be in NYC, probably staying at The Edison, if it's available and not too expensive!

DR FJL - I may be mis-speaking here, but it seems that you have quite the fixation on the Central Park Reservoir lately.  What say you?

Always on the lookout for a running gag.  

Or in the case of the reservoir, a jogging gag.

DR edisaurus - I'd look into hotel rooms sooner than later.  A friend of mine just booked a few days at his usual stand-by, The Skyline - which also happens to be my usual stand-by - and for some strange unknown reason, their traditionally low January rates are almost double(!) what they were last year.  And once he started checking some other properties, he noticed the same trend elsewhere.  However, he did find that the rates on the East Side tended to run lower, even at some of the nicer hotels.

Meanwhile, no one's answered my question of a little while back.  Does "stuff" actually happen AT the reservoir, or is it like a bar on nightclub where people meet?
