Every once in a while New York will flex its crazy-muscles just to remind me that it's top of the weird pile. Tonight was one such time. Roaming around and deep in thought though I was, something caught my eye and snapped me back to reality as I walked through Washington Square Park. And I could not regret more my not carrying my camera at the time.
The item in question was a taxidermied squirrel standing upright with a large paper model plane in its mouth. On it was a sign that read:
"Hello, my name is Kitty Boo.
I was electrified.
A nice man gave me this hat and airplane.
TAKE ME HOME."
The hat, sadly, was nowhere to be found; and no, I did not take Kitty Boo home.
This concludes our gentle reminder. Thank you for choosing New York City, where our motto is, "Yeah, sure, why not?"

Ah, but you didn't see it? About a foot behind him lay a petite hat made of folded notebook paper. I thought of resetting it, and well... changed my mind... for obvious reasons.
