Thanks for all the help- now confronted with typical NYC overload.
Glen, thanks for trying to be my wingman but it is not necessary, I 'm sure you have better things to do.
I was amused that these provincials are still so shocked by a Monegasque billionaire wanting to land his helicopter at Screaming Eagle. That is the least of what I have seen go on there.
PM me and I will send you pictures of Monte Carlo intrigue that will throw you into V fib, and I still need to tell you of my encounter with Triple H on a plane.
I found Mr. Levesque to be extremely educated, intelligent and a fellow cultured elitist.
I did not know his mentor was Killer Kowalski.
We subsequently had an erudite conversation about the merits of the claw hold, followed by a discussion on Apolipoprotein E alleles (APOE-ε2 ,ε3 ,ε4,), and two studies on the role of Microtubule Associated Protein Tau [TAU exon 6 polymorphisms His47Tyr (rs2258689) and Ser53Pro (rs10445337)], and Neurofilament Heavy (NEHF, rs165602) in multiple concussion precipitated Fronto Temporal Dementia, as certain wrestlers have experienced.
Now back to wrestling:
Watching this old video of killer Kowalski , it is amazing how the athleticism of pro wrestlers has advanced since then. This has occurred in all pro sports- look at tennis or basketball games from the 50’s.
These two guys are terrible athletes- Me and Glenn could have probably put on a better match…
Proves Roland Barthes’ thesis that people do not go to watch the mechanics of the match itself but rather the spectacle.
I dig your point but tennis, like golf, has changed a lot with new technology. I doubt Tiger dominates with wood shafts and gutta percha. Same with Nadal and wooden racquets.
Only go to Tao if you want a scene. Otherwise as Sarah said avoid at all costs. Shun Lee is average at best. Decoy is great but no scene and you sit at a large communal table. Haven’t been to cafe china. I do like Philippe and the owner is great but the food won’t blow you away. So many better choices but none are a scene.
most likely because your questions always come off as somewhat desperate and exhausting; you never do your own research and when very kind and patient people give you good recommendations, you reject or ignore them. it’s a pattern.
also, given your past queries, i figured proximity to a helipad may influence your decision.
