Ok I give up. I cannot bear another day talking about the Mooninites and the Turner Broadcasting guerilla marketing campaign. Should you have been blissfully spared of this news, see the story here.
Fine, maybe in this touchy time we live in putting Lite Brights on a bridge overpass was not the brightest idea. But what gets me more than anything else is that it took almost 2 hours for the media and mayor to say that this was a publicity stunt. Two hours. So instead of letting all of us know that there was nothing to worry about, the massive police presence continued. At 6pm when I went to take my train home I could barely get through the throng of Transit Police clogging the platform.
I am all for safety and security and will admit to a bit of travelling on faith every morning that each of the hundreds of other commuters I encounter mean me no harm.
Debacles like this one make me feel embarrassed and nervous that if something really did happen (god forbid) this city is still not prepared for it.
