Here is my favorite part. The damn mayor has relentlessly campaigned to
toll the Brooklyn Bridge to prevent driving into and out of town, but
found is too inconvient to plow Flatbush Avenue and instead made sure
that "main arteries" like Lexington Ave and the Grnd Central Parkway got
plowed instead. Its a pure power struggle, plain and simple and this
mayor can sufficate in a snow drift as far as I'm concerned.
