This is just hilarious.

Ziegfeld Classics
They’re showing some interesting stuff at the Ziegfeld this month. It looks like I’ve already missed some good stuff (LoTR and Indy), but there’s more good stuff coming up (North by Northwest, Alien, and Lawrence of Arabia, for example).
Best Burgers in NYC
essays & effluvia: Best Burgers in NYC: I need to check out some of these places!
iPod Subway Maps
iPod Subway Maps: possibly a good excuse to get a color iPod, except that NYC’s MTA sent them a cease & desist letter, so there’s no NYC map right now.
New York Magazine Fall Restaurant Preview 2005
Some interesting restaurants should be opening in NYC soon. I’m interested in Morimoto and Colors, in particular.
Google Map NYC-Subway Hack
This hack superimposes a NYC subway map on top of Google Maps. Useful.
Ramble
I took a walk through the Ramble in Central Park yesterday. I just stumbled into it, honestly, but it turned out to be pretty nifty.
Looking for some info on it today, I stumbled across Forgotten NY. Aside from some interesting info on Central Park, there’s also a lot of other stuff there.
MoMA.org – Hayao Miyazaki and Isao Takahata: Masters of Animation
I’ve already missed most of the Miyazaki thing at MoMA. Still, maybe I can make it in and see Castle in the Sky next week.
New Comic Con in New York
There will be a new comic convention held in New York next year. It’s being run by a company that’s apparently quite big. The con will be at the Javits Center. This could be interesting.
Star Wars
I went to see Revenge of the Sith yesterday morning. I couldn’t quite bring myself to go to the midnight showing Wednesday night. I’m just getting too old for that. I did enjoy the movie, and it was a good crowd. I went to the Ziegfeld in NYC. Lots of enthusiastic folks in costume, kids with toy lightsabers, and the usual contingent of NYC weirdos.
