Bernie's post was unpleasant Mac. Did you not realise that due to your leftie bias? It was a patent and somewhat sneery smear.

And it contained a forced falsehood which you obviously did not spot due to your having had tea with him.

Of course it bloody was, it was a reply to yours.
Don't tell me you don't know you're doing it.
Okay sorry, I'm done.

Well Eh --if the thread is to be used for negative campaigning in the socialist interest you can expect some comments. I'm all for Hot Dogs and Race tracks myself. What happened to them?

Usual stuff Steve. I'm criticised for being off topic by people who have been off topic to such an extent that they use the thread for photo-ops showing themselves in what they think is the best possible light.

I'm used to it.

Do you still watch Benny Hill and Charlie Drake videos?

Quote:
In the morning, I used to take the 2 or 3 train from Clark Street to get to my studio in Manhattan’s meatpacking district. Here’s some advice, if you happen to make that commute, too: When you get off the elevator at the Clark Street station, go down the stairs to the left. On the platform, make a sharp left; this will position you directly behind a column (A). It’s pretty close to the tracks, so there will be very few people around, thereby improving your chances of getting on, even at rush hour. If you happen to bring a newspaper, use one door further up (B).

When you arrive the at 14th Street station and step off, you’ll be near the 13th Street exit, and the door will open right in front of the stairs (C). If you chose the newspaper option mentioned above, the door will open in front of a convenient trash can, where you can discard your paper (D) before leaving the subway system.

This is for Bernie, particularly. But anyone can read it.
