Handy, a friend sub group here are now using the TMu (Thurston Moore unit) as an alternative to the JRu. It’s good, and works well in New York and London (he lives round the corner from me in Stoke Newington now) but I’m still concerned about unit proliferation.

@Handy..cool beans. It is an homage, of sorts, to McSorley's Ale House. The writing & acting is top notch. CK, Buscemi, Edie Falco, and Alan Alda as their racist/bigot Uncle. Talk about going against type.

@Todd-o-Phonic: Doing as good as I can! You mentioned 1 5th Avenue in the interview? I actually took a sanity trip out of Brooklyn to Union Square Park and Washington Square Park yesterday… So quiet even with some people out.

Caught the 8th Street R train back home and honestly, I was the literal only person in the station. And this was 6:00pm-ish on a Friday. So quiet and dead; even quieter than 6:00am on the same train.

FWIW, when I was on the N train yesterday, the car was nearly empty but there was an older Asian woman who was clearly a gleaner heading into Manhattan. Some guy and his girlfriend get on the same car and they are staring them down. Happily nothing else happened past that. But just sitting there watching it and waiting for the next shoe to drop was a pile garbage feelings.

You have done something to your brain. You have made it high. If I lay 10 mils of diazepam on you, it will do something else to your brain. You will make it low.

Handy: From an interview or two I've seen with Bruce Robinson, the real-life Danny wound up being a successful commodities trader in the 80s; apparently he ran into him by chance in London, and he was in a sharp suit, driving a Jag. Another epitaph for the decade.

We used to go to an avant la lettre pop-up Italian restaurant in Cranston called Mike's Kitchen. It was in a VFW. Amazing. Wine was $1!

Mariano, I think Vivian MacKerrell, the model for Withnail, continued in that way for the rest of his life. He wasn’t trading in the City in the 80s thankfully.

Mariano, I always imagine him to be something akin to another Vivian, Viv Stanshall, amazingly funny and talented, but completely out of control to his own detriment.

Handy, that’s the cookery thing that REG did with Arabella Weir, isn’t it? I never actually saw it because I was a new dad at that time and I couldn’t stay awake for anything.

Handy: Yeah man, Posh Nosh is hilarious, some of Grant's best comedic acting. David: I don't know that much about Stanshall's bio, I'll read up on him. I know him mainly as one of the Bonzos. I think all of Posh Nosh is still on YouTube, really short episodes: www.youtube.com...
