WTF NYC


 Today's WTF (actually it was a  week ago but I had video file type issues) is brought to you by E 56th Street.

Now I now the vent things in the road do that steaming thing here. I don't know why. I heard - I've asked a lot of people for an explanation - that the subway used to be a river so they need to get rid of all the left of moisture all the time so NYC doesn't sink. In the same conversation I was told that the National Parks and Wildlife play recordings of bird noises to keep homeless people from sleeping in parks. So I'm dubious to say the least. Regardless I get the steaming thing is just part of the landscape but these crazy cone things just don't look safe. They have a mind of their own. They will possibly, one day, rise up and take over the city by way of a bloody and brutal steaming spree... Next film idea, anyone.

Side note: this was the first day I used my new camera. Add to that i was jet-lagged and hungry so not really thinking smart. Subsequently, to watch this video, tilt your head to the right
