I biked past that sinkhole early this morning (6:45) and muttered to myself, "That sucker is gonna open up wide."

I cruised past the sinkhole a little while ago, and heard talk that they think that the garbage truck may have ruptured a gas main when it went into the hole.

@eastvillageidiot: This weekend, I noticed lots of dweebs walking around the Village wearing "NYU Class of 2011" t-shirts.

I'm grateful that NYU is activating a Douchebag Alert System for us.

New York New York, a crumbling town
A garbage truck's in a hole in the ground
But seafood buyers just walk right around
New York New York ...

Quickly! Jump in! This is the wormhole to an alternate universe devoid of NYU frosh, I-bankers, and hipsters.

I wouldn't mind a sinkhole in Union Square as long as it swallows up some of the picture mafia vendors infesting the south end.

Well, I've often thought about living in Union Square. How much is the sinkhole going for a month?

Just as I thought. Union Square has become the entrance to hell. Between the crush of inhumanity, the snotty service at Coffeeshop (where I get sucked into as a food failsafe), or running into an ex, it always makes me feel like I'm dodging Scylla and Charibdys.

I think that's where the idiots who still think Coffee Shop is worth waiting 45 minutes for a table come from. In order words, it's a secret passageway to Long Island.

Helicopters are, of course, the equipment of choice for addressing holes in the ground. They will carry fill material in quart buckets and drop it, ever so gently, into the void below. The work will be complete in time for the New York-hosted Olympics.
