Laugh if you will, but the sight of lower Manhattan and the river under a pale ceramic sky scudded over by loads of Simpsons clouds squishes my heart at least as much as anything I saw on vac. Reminded me of the Mercedes commercial that ran just after 9/11 that made me cry: dramatic shots of various wonderful destinations intercut with descriptive caption cards, followed by a Mercedes coming into New York followed by the cards: "but it's nice to come home. // We understand. We live here too.". Yeah, I cried, big whoop, wanna fight about it?
