Work Hard. Fly Right. Land Wrong.
• A Continental pilot misses the runway at Newark, and the Post, still giddy from yesterday's circulation figures, lands a scoop. The jet skidded to a stop on a short, narrow taxiway instead of a proper landing strip. Everyone's puzzled as to why and how. [NYP] • Bloomberg spent Monday in Connecticut, spreading his independent, bipartisan, post-ideological magic — in other words, shilling for Joe Lieberman while trying to convince the voters he's not laying groundwork for a presidential bid at all. [WNBC] • Over 2,000 HIV-positive needy people will avoid a steep rent raise in their subsidized housing — but only at the last possible minute and after a heated battle in court. Housing Works, which you know as a kind of high-end Goodwill, sued the city on the tenants' behalf. [amNY] • OMG! There's a barge in the East River! And there's a swimming pool right on the barge! How darling! And just in time for, well, the time of year when you won't get us into an outdoor pool with a shotgun. [NYT] • Finally, a public service announcement: The Empire State Building will keep its observation decks open unusually late — until 2 a.m. — all through the holidays. So feel free to reenact your favorite moments from An Affair to Remember — or King Kong, if that's your fancy — in bitter December cold at 1 a.m. [NewYorkology]
