Morning

¶ Sixth: Why not ask about Sixth on the Fourth? Sixth Avenue, that is, known only to Idiocrats as the Avenue of the Americas, its streetlamps bedecked with dinky tinpot medallions honoring, if that’s the word, the nations of the Western Hemisphere (not to  be confused with “the West”). Few medallions remain, and David Gonzalez asks why.

Oremus…

Morning, cont’d

§ Sixth. Current Idiocratic spokesperson, Craig Chin, offers this consolation.

A current spokesman for the Transportation Department, Craig Chin, said the city had no plans to replace the signs.

“In the interest of safety, we have removed some medallions, but the spirit of the avenue will live on with the Avenue of the Americas street signs attached to lampposts alongside the Sixth Avenue signs,” he said.

It almost makes you wonder if there’s a school that teaches people to spokes in this manner.

Have a great weekend, and may the spirit of Sixth Avenue live on.
