Remember me to Herald Square.

Today while waiting to the Q Train at 34th Street an Uptown N Train passed.
It was packed to the gills.

I watched as car rolled through the sweltering heat towards 42nd Street and thought, "Yuck. All of those sweaty strangers on that steaming train. And most of them are standing. How miserable."
And then, in the 3rd or 4th car from the back, there was a man pressed, face against the window (with everyone else's back to his), grinning. Just GRINNING.

One NYer's "Yuck" is another NYer's "Whee!"
