I was born and raised in Brooklyn.  The sad part is this happens all the time, i.e, mistaken identity.  My baby brother is NYPD and tells me plenty of stories.  If the cops were watching the strip club and these three "fit the description" of the targets, the police could misconstrue anything they did as threatening.\n\nThe scariest part of the story is this is not an isolated incident.  The only reason news services picked it up is because one of the victims was getting married that day.  That fact adds to the sensationalism, thereby helping to sell newspapers.\n\nAs my grandfather always says, "I'm disappointed but not surprised!"

I really think the the Church of Stop Shopping is just a publicity stunt orchestrated by Reverend Bill and the Church of Stop Shopping Choir.\n\n\nFabulous Worship\n3 PM | March 26\nSt. Mark’s in the Bowery \nTickets are $10 but no-one is turned away.\n\nWelcome to the mass casting-out of Retail Sin and Chicanery – No Wal Marts in the five boroughs. \nWe believe in miracles. Our holy rolling can stop a bulldozer before you can say BIG BOX.\n\nActivists are gathering at St. Mark’s in the Bowery on Sunday afternoon, 3 PM, March 26. Can you jump and shout, clap your hands and sing?\n\nThis is the first performance by the preacher and the choir since The Shopocalypse Tour - 5,000 miles through the American Hell of Rabid Shopping. Instructive caroling and preaching was offered to startled shoppers in Chicago's Magnificent Mile, in the Mall of America, at Wal-Mart headquarters in Bentonville – ending in a parade down Disneyland’s “Main Street USA” on Christmas Day.\n\nNow back in the Big Apple - the campaign to declare New York City a Wal-Mart Free Zone has begun. Not a Sam's Club out on some highway. Not one of those fake "Neighborhood Markets" price-gouging and fake-friendly, clearing the way for the superstore.\n\nLast year, the faithful in Rego Park exoricized Wal Mart from their Queens neighborhood, and they will receive Sacred Sainthood at the March 26 service. Change-a-lujah!

Last time I was in NYC, I saw a guy with a sign that said "I need money for drugs and whores". I almost gave him money just for being honest. Not really an answer, just wanted to share.

I've done so many outrageous things, that I can't pick one that is the most outlandish!  I'm not sure my current boyfriend knows about all of them, and I certainly do not want to start anything tonight!! I would say, to be on the safe side... that the craziest thing I've done to date was when I flew to Boston from St. Louis to visit an online friend.  Turns out he had a one room basement apartment with only one bed.  Keep in mind that I had never met this person until I visited him. I chose to stay with him in his dinky apartment and sleep next to him for however long I was there.  (I think it was like 4 days or so.)  I told my boyfriend at the time that it was an old friend from school that I was visiting.  I was very young, and the guy I was visiting was a VERY big guy! I must have weighed 105 lbs., and he about 300.   I was outrageously stupid to do what I did.  Nobody knew exactly where I was. I didn't own a cell phone at the time.  I had no money. I could have been killed.. seriously!  But fortune smiled on me and I had the most wonderful time.  The guy was a complete gentleman who truly wanted to show me the sights and introduce me to new foods and people.  I do not recommend ANYONE doing what I did.
