Turner Classic Movies has the right idea

Turner Classic Movies's schedule for today is made of films that celebrate New York. What an excellent idea.

"New York, New York!
from "On the Town"

today...

Today… I watered. I mowed. I weeded. I wrote two short blog entries for later posting. I caught parts of “42nd Street” and of “On The Town” on TCM. I wished a Happy Birthday to a friend. I read the remaining issues of my Locus stack. I enjoyed wearing my new sneakers.
