  1. Ramones: Back when I was listening to them, I'd have said "Teenage Lobotomy". Today though, it's "Rockaway Beach".

    Ms. Wheelchair America: Small businesses are exempt from many legal requirements large businesses must follow. That's part of their "charm," I suppose.

  2. The best Ramones song is "Gimme Gimme Shock Treatment."

  5. So are you suggesting all the small stores be replaced with chain stores so Ms. Wheelchair can then "have the full experience of someone living in the East Village" that she seeks and deserves? (-;

    The article is actually quite insightful. Liked the close -- "With a little empathy and creativity, you are able to open doors for people," McArthur said.
