Something about the air this morning made me saunter to work instead of the usual no-eye-contact, pedestrian slalom. It looks like--more acurately, it smells like Fall is here. Finally a chance to breathe something other than ninety-degree taxi exhaust or forty-degree air conditioning. During this saunter of mine, I was trying to think of a place for our weekly appointment with ethyl. The events of the past few days almost demand a sports theme, but collectively we tend to shy away from "sports bars." We tend to shy towards beer. And, although the weather outside is delightful, it will be a bit cold or wet by tonight. So, sports, beer, and an outdoor view. A quick search on these words on www.excite.com brought me to Leornard's WebCams

Not quite what I was looking for. The human brain worked a bit better in this case. We'll be heading to the Chelsea Brewing Company at Chelsea Piers. There are a few different restaurants in this Sports Mall, so be sure you find the right one. If your biceps are like Mark's, try hitting a few balls at the batting cage on your way in (or maybe we should all try on the way out).
On a note not at all related to beer, sports or river views, Vineel is celebrating the launch of the new Childrens Television Workshop web site at
So, check out his contribution (you'll need Shockwave) and be ready to congratulate or abuse him tonight:
