For what kind of things are people calling NYPD?
Blocked driveways. Yep, blocked driveways and illegal parking. Another reason to use public transport.
And apparently two people called about a squeegee. Doesn’t say if there was a man attached to it, but I sure hope so. I thought squeegee men [were] disappeared in the Guiliani regime, but evidently two survived; even 12 years of the Bloomberg regime. Mayors may come and mayors may go…. etc.

(Yes, I confess: I do not know how to center a table. Not yet. I am tired of learning how to do the same basic thing in a hundred different ways depending on which software I’m using).
