September 25, 2004Time for the TimesFrom the “Best of Both Worlds” files: Talk about relaxing… I spent three hours this afternoon reading the Sunday NY Times while sipping delicious cappuccinos in a quiet café in Guatemala City. It was last Sunday’s edition, a parting gift from Mom & Bob when they dropped me off a week ago at LaGuardia airport. I had saved it just for this weekend! Do you know why New York is the “city that never sleeps”? It’s because the city is trying desperately to finish reading the Sunday NY Times. The paper is immense. The paper, in the wrong hands, could be a weapon of mass destruction. It has more sections than Seattle has rainy days. It’s like a portable library. The irony, of course, is that whenever I’m in NY I don’t usually have the time to read the NY Times. Here in Guatemala, I have the time, but not usually the Times. Today I had both. And since three hours was just enough to get me through the first four sections, there’s plenty of Times for tomorrow. Posted by elcanche at September 25, 2004 10:00 PMComments
