To Do: Muckrakers, Forgotten New York, or Comics
- Intrigue! (Bob Woodward makes a rare appearance in New York.) Scandal! (Secret goverment documents are unveiled.) Success! (State of Denial: Bush at War, Part III is now No. 1 on the Times Best Seller list.) Religion! (Simon & Schuster executives pray Jared Paul Stern has the same fate.) [92nd St Y]
- Or you can head over to their West Side Makor location to check out one-time Gawker favorite Dawn Eden and others talk about their sexual experiences. We'll let you determine the frustration level for each event. [92nd St Y]
- Forgotten New York author Kevin Walsh shares useless, but fascinating information with those fascinated by useless information. For example, Edgar Allen Poe, residing at 85 West 3rd for a mere 12 months, was a Village hipster nearly 200 years ahead of his time. [NY Mag]
- The Jewish Museum (Manhattan) and The Newark Musuem (Yes, that Newark) team up to feature Masters of American Comics, an exhibition of comics throughout the 1900s including superhero favorites, the Fantastic Four and Superman. This is for the few of you who are brave enough to venture past Hoboken. [Flavorpill]
