“New Yorkers Desperate for REI Loo” Headline WSJ weekend edition 10 - 18/19 (20-25) page A/1 & p A/10.
Let me begin by reminding my listeners that I lived in Manhattan for 18 months. My first job was with the American Thread Company, located at 260 West Broadway. That’s so far downtown; REI in SoHo is actually uptown!

FYI/I looked in at Apple Maps and found that REI is also east of The Bowery, not exactly the most fashionable address in Manhattan.

As an aside, Apple Maps tells me that NYC has an “emergency” expedited passport office, which I guess is necessary in a “sanctuary city”, for illegals to become legal, but I digress.

Trump Lands in More Hot Water,💦 (again), but no one really knows why, so put down your phone 📱 for a minute while I explain
James Madison (4th president) whitewashed the charred limestone to cover the soot-stained exterior and added architectural features to the north and south facade. Commonly called a portico.

Here’s where it all goes wrong — It’s not a portico at all, it’s a coach mar … or that’s French for carriage entrance.
