Manhattan Chowder, Back in the Big Apple: Music Everywhere
http://manhattanchowder.blogspot.com/2009/11/music-everywhere.html
Manhattan Chowder, Back in the Big Apple. Wednesday, November 25, 2009. A beautiful Gothic Revival style edifice set back from the street at 820 Broadway, Grace Church boasts one of the finest musical programs in the city. For kids. Good thing, too, because these kids probably would have been beaten to a pulp on any other New York City playground. Keep singing, boys! Labels: Only In New York. Posted by Michael @ 8:07 AM. Oh, Michael, I loved this post. Thanks. It made my day. Youre the best. O, Solo Mio.

Manhattan Chowder, Back in the Big Apple: Shakespeare in the Parking Space
http://manhattanchowder.blogspot.com/2009/09/shakespeare-in-parking-space.html
Manhattan Chowder, Back in the Big Apple. Friday, September 18, 2009. Shakespeare in the Parking Space. As a New Yorker who sometimes keeps a car in the city, I am normally not in favor of anything taking up a parking space other than a car. Today, however, I have to make an exception. New York City is taking part in an international event called Park(ing) Day. ( http:/ www.parkingdaynyc.org/. Pictured below), Juliet Act 4, scene 2, a marvelous St. Crispen's Day speech from. Hard-boiled New Yorkers, norm...

Manhattan Chowder, Back in the Big Apple: August 2006
http://manhattanchowder.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
Manhattan Chowder, Back in the Big Apple. Thursday, August 31, 2006. If you've read some of my previous posts I'm sure you noticed that I've been spending a lot of time down in Asbury Park, NJ lately. It's only a little over an hour's drive from Manhattan without traffic or a relaxing hour and a half train ride with coastal views along the way through towns like Red Bank and Little Silver. Posted by Michael @ 12:10 PM. Wednesday, August 30, 2006. It seemed to me that Portugal hasn't really caught up with...

Manhattan Chowder, Back in the Big Apple: O, Solo Mio
http://manhattanchowder.blogspot.com/2009/10/o-solo-mio.html
Manhattan Chowder, Back in the Big Apple. Saturday, October 31, 2009. O, Solo Mio. An interesting bit of news about New York. Was released yesterday. It seems that more than 50% of Manhattanites live alone; as in single, no spouse, no family. This doesn't surprise me considering that the housing stock in Manhattan is made up of more studio and one-bedroom apartments than anything else. But what I'm waiting for is some kind of acknowledgement that this is the case. There goes the neighborhood. Now, don't ...

Manhattan Chowder, Back in the Big Apple: We've Got a Long Way to Go, Baby
http://manhattanchowder.blogspot.com/2009/10/weve-got-long-way-to-go-baby.html
Manhattan Chowder, Back in the Big Apple. Wednesday, October 28, 2009. We've Got a Long Way to Go, Baby. Homophobia slaps you in the face. Way to stay classy, Post. Sure, it was a slam against Philadelphia as a second-rate city, but with strong homophobic overtones. Just a few days ago Scott was saying to me "Remember those Scholastic Book orders from elementary school? Are doing the right thing and not allowing a discriminatory organization to hold meetings in municipal buildings. But I didn't. ...With ...

Manhattan Chowder, Back in the Big Apple: "Who Do You Think You Are?!?!"
http://manhattanchowder.blogspot.com/2009/09/who-do-you-think-you-are.html
Manhattan Chowder, Back in the Big Apple. Tuesday, September 29, 2009. Who Do You Think You Are? Hugh Jackman has received a great deal of press over the last 24 hours for stopping a preview performance of his new Broadway play,. This made me recall a similar episode during the penultimate performance of Patti Lupone's. During which some hapless audience member dared to take a picture. Patti's response was deliciously Classic Lupone. Watch and listen. Posted by Michael @ 10:05 AM. Good for Hugh and Patti...

Manhattan Chowder, Back in the Big Apple: I Need a Little Christmas
http://manhattanchowder.blogspot.com/2009/11/i-need-little-christmas.html
Manhattan Chowder, Back in the Big Apple. Friday, November 20, 2009. I Need a Little Christmas. I won't lie. The last couple of months being back in New York have been a big adjustment. After such an incredible year at school it was bound to be a let down getting back to the city grind. I miss the friends I made and the constant creative stimuli. On top of that, I had to finish up my final paper (which is done! And I'm still living in a temporary housing situation. The reason? Only In New York. Ahh, soun...

Manhattan Chowder, Back in the Big Apple. Monday, October 12, 2009. Two female cashiers at the Duane Read on 125 Street. Yeah, he tol' me that when Obama talked to the school kids it would be good for my son 'cause he's "unfortunate". He's not unfortunate. He got two working parents. That's fortunate.

Manhattan Chowder, Back in the Big Apple. Wednesday, September 27, 2006. I thought I'd include a few more of the local sights of Copenhagen. These guys work as bicycle jockeys in the center of town for tourists. I couldn't resist snapping a few pictures of them- I'm sure you can see why. I was going to include witty captions for these photos, but I think I'll leave that to you. Posted by Michael @ 10:00 PM. After all that walking I took a taxi back to the cruise terminal.
