richard price interview on lenny lopate from the other day. i love listening to him speak. he was also at union square b&n, did anyone go? i went to see him read from, must have been clockers, years ago down near battery park or somewhere on the water downtown and he called martin amis a midget.
Greenspan's economics Ph.D possibly BS?
Signed up for ZipCar on Monday night and rented a car (a Mini) for a couple hours yesterday. Very slick operation. Almost no friction. Seriously couldn't be easier. I really wonder about what percentage of cars / customers / transactions give them problems? Seems like a potential nightmare for them, but I hope it's not and I hope they make it. Highly recommended. I pay $50 a year, plus a $25 one time sign up fee. Then I can reserve cars at a specific location, for a specific number of hours, and it starts around $8/hour. I think the mini was $11. Gas, parking, and tolls included.
