I just got the word that we're giving away free tickets to an al fresco dinner at The New York Botanical Garden for tomorrow night on teh Facebooks. It's prepared and hosted by the chefs from Babbo and Lupa. If you want tix, email fb@nybg.org with your name after around 7 p.m. tonight, and I'll probably be able to get them for you, since I'll be getting those emails (as supplies last of course). If I don't know you personally, PM me your name so I'll recognize it. It's a family-friendly thing, so you can bring kids if you have them.

Ha! We're actually giving away some of those Crocs as part of a separate promotion with Batali. In ten years, we're going to look back at Crocs as the Skids of this era.





Wait doesn't he wear Skids too?

aren't "skids" just the GO-Bots version of Zubaz?

Indeed! Man, that Mario Batali is a walking sartorial trainwreck sure has a style all his own.

is it really so egregious coming from a big italian ginger?

aren't "skids" just a Scottish power-pop band riding on the coat tails of punk, pioneers of guitar-as-bagpipes skirl, overly fond of Iffy Tuetonic imagery, with pretensions to Greek classicism and displays of erudition inappropriate to ones dressed like a nightmare vision of a pre-pubescent and sexless future, who still managed to purvey such mighty slices of energetic, authentic and supremely melodious rifferama as 'Charade', 'Into The Valley', 'Masquerade' and 'Working For The Yankee Dollar'?




Fixed





Carry on.
