the porous city

Two lists
One from Atul Gawande, recommendations on how to be a "positive deviant."
  1. Ask an unscripted question.
  2. Don't complain.
  3. Count something.
  4. Write something.
  5. Change.
And another: my first four distinct thoughts on disembarking at LaGuardia a few days ago.
  1. It's dirty here.
  2. Wow, she's pretty.
  3. That's expensive.
  4. What's that smell?
I <3 New York.
