I was wondering why you never responded...the email must have gotten misdirected.

Ha! So THAT was the reason!

Guess we'll have to plan better for next year's bloggers getaway.

I love Village Paper, and there is nothing to replace it unless you count Party City on 14th which isn't nearly as good.

I saw the fire trucks there this morning, it was all blocked off with at least 30 firemen standing in a huddle in the street, but by then there was no fire to be seen.

Isn't this the same block (around the corner) that burned down about a year ago - just after Ciao for Now opened their outpost there?
