Cynics ‘R Us

By urbanblitz • Aug 19th, 2002 • Category: Straphanger Chronicles

Pan handlers never learn their lessons. Don’t they realize that we’re already onto their scam. So forget the sob story, we just don’t buy it.
Scenario # 1
This woman walked down in my car on 4 train. So what’s her story. I’m unemployed and I have a child to support. Well then get a job. There [...]



Marketing vs. Sales

By urbanblitz • Aug 19th, 2002 • Category: Rant & Rave

Why me? It seems everyone trys to push me into sales. Is it because I have the personality for it. Perhaps? Seriously, I really don’t like to sale to people directly. I much prefer marketing because you’re actually selling to someone subversively. It requires more thought and in the end you’re selling. It’s really the [...]



In the Dark

So there’s been a bit of an energy crisis in New York this past summer. There have several times this past month, where my office building has asked us to turn off non-essential office equipment. When I boarded my train this morning to begin my usual commute from hell. It was no surprise that lights [...]



Free Lunch

By urbanblitz • Aug 8th, 2002 • Category: Shopping

This afternoon, a friend of mine IM me to tell me about this free lunch thing. I’ve like what are you talking about. Are you sure it’s not a scam. Considering 2 weeks ago, there was the Starbuck’s hoax certificates. Anyway, it wasn’t a scam at all. Pretty much, it was this promotions they were [...]



Off the Band Wagon

A few week ago, I went through a DVD shopping spree. And I told myself, that I wouldn’t buy a slew of DVDs for quite a while. NOT! I was waiting for a friend at Virgin Megastore, and they had a big sale on DVDs. Pretty much 10 dollars each.
Check out what I got
Blast from [...]



All in Good Fun

I went to a birthday dinner last night. It was a lot of fun. Conversation was quite interesting. Went from mindless chit chat to something a bit more raunchy. Seriously, what do you get when you get a bunch of Asians in a room for a birthday party? Lots of flash bulbs. It seem everybody [...]



Got a Fix, Man…

By urbanblitz • Aug 5th, 2002 • Category: Rant & Rave

Hey lady.. You got a cig….stogie.. fag..otherwise, known as cigarette. Since City has raised the tax on cigarettes by $1.50, the price of a pack is about 7 dollars. Ever since then, the kids in my neighborhood are too busy trolling for cigarettes. They harass every smoker that walks by, hoping for a losie. It’s [...]



Waddling Hula

This past saturday, a bunch of my friends and I went to PS1 to check out their music series. To sum it all up, it was one big beach party with dj spinning at an art gallery. We got there about 2:30 pm, and left at about clost to 7pm. It was so surreal. There [...]

Upon answering his call
Friend Hey CA what are you wearing?
CA quickly picks up the phone.
JM: Hey there is no porno in this office
Me: That’s too much information CA.
few minutes later from CA’s cubicle
CA:I just don’t like those cheekbones
JM:CA what’s going on over there. I’m [...]



All Dolled Up

I was wearing a skirt with heels today. Can you believe it. I’m sure you probably saying you won’t believe it until you see it. Well too bad. Yup! I looked like a girl. Eww!!! But you seriously, I don’t think I ever want to wear those shoes again. I was in so much pain, [...]
