More photos of the near-miss air conditioner mishap yesterday outside Moonstruck Diner

Yesterday afternoon, we reported on that AC unit falling out of the window at Fifth Street and Second Avenue... and the unit landed on the Moonstruck Diner awning...

EV Grieve reader peter radley sent along these shots showing how the awning saved tge AC from hitting the sidewalk. Or someone's head. A Moonstruck miracle, really.



... and because we only recently discovered the arrow function ...

    That's a darn fine arrow!

    Speaking of things falling out of windows, I was walking by that restaurant on 2nd Street between Avenues A and B (something assaggi) when right behind me I heard a muffled *thump!*, followed by a less-muffled *thump!* I turned around and saw a pug dog moving from the curb onto the sidewalk. He had just fallen out the window, but he was OK.

    Somebody cue up Harry Nilsson's, "Me and My Arrow."

    I used to live in that building. One night I parked my car in the same spot where the white BMW SUV shown in the pics is parked. The next morning there was a big round dent in my car's roof -- like it was hit with a bowling ball.
