The weird thing about the WYSIWYG show this week is that I was The Old Guy. Everyone was reading about their jobs, and they're all talking about how they graduated from college in 2002 or whatnot. Meanwhile, my story references Ed Koch and The Equalizer. Now I know how Jarvis must feel on all those blogger panels.
Anyway, it was a great night. This girl had the funniest Auschwitz joke I've ever heard (OK, the only funny Auschwitz joke I've ever heard). This guy made me want to buy a mirror hat. He made me even more concerned about driving on the FDR, he reminded me never to trust a hippie, and she had the cutest little dress and boots (see photo above; If you want to see the pictures of me, they're here. I think they photoshopped in that shirt, though. I was actually wearing an ironic hipster t-shirt, I swear).
Supposedly they'll be posting video of the readings soon. Meanwhile, you can read my story about measuring newsstands for the New York City Department of Transportation.
