Billi Pod Says==>Oh The Drama!!

Good morning my loyal and faithful readers from the still frigid Big Apple.

Progress has been made snowplow-wise but the anger in the outer boroughs is still bubbling and the papers have been relentless in their criticism of Mayor Mike and the Sanitation Workers Union.

Yeah, I know that it has been almost universally panned by the critics, but I like Jack Black, so ... screw the critics.

Before closing I want to respond to a recent comment on this blog asking what “PHC” means ...

The top floor is 41 flights up and is designated the “Penthouse Floor.” Billi Pod is in unit C, so ... tada ... PHC is apartment C on the “Penthouse Floor” with awesome northern views of Hell’s Kitchen.

So, in closing, my loyal and faithful readers, we will have ...
