I suspect I'm not cool enough to stay there.
I've stayed there (fashion week, no less) and nope. Few of us are. But they don't side-eye you about it. I'd stay there again for sure.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

It's in my favorite bit of Manhattan architecture, the former American Radiator Building. [link] [link]
Wow, I'd rather stay somewhere that I could see it from. The library's across the street, you say?
Yes, in the middle of Bryant Park.
ND and I stayed at the Library once many years ago. Such a cool hotel!
Riding through Haight-Ashbury (waved in your direction Hec and JZ! But it was a v quick trip) I wondered...hippies and hitchhiking and all that seems so insane to me. Like, who would do that? But then I wondered if in 30 years people will be like "omg in the day you got in an Uber with just any old driver???"

Probably helps to remember that it wasn't just the counter culture that hitchhiked - it was common in lots of areas that weren't served by public transportation so large chunks of the populace did it as a matter of course. Jumping in the back of somebody's pick up truck on the way to town from your farm was the only way to get around.
Still, even then picking up a skeevy hitcher, or getting a ride from a creep was a well worn trope in crime stories.

You know what's weird about Super Tuesday in Colorado? Last week, we saw an endless revolving door of the same 2 Clinton and same 2 Sanders commercials -- and NONE for the GOP candidates. I'm pretty sure the Republicans caucus in Colorado today, but I wouldn't swear to it.
Timelies all!
I'm kinda surprised I've only seen one political ad, considering that Virginia's primary is today. Not complaining, mind you...
I was startled to see so many ads when I was in Vegas. But then, no one really bothers to advertise for president in Utah.
