How fun!! I used to love a good roller coaster, and I’d love to see Coney Island. There’s no way my 68 year old ass woulda climbed over that bar 😂 and I know exactly what that bar looks like, old style coaster!

Glad you got to go!

So glad you got to go. I'm still in disbelief at myself for having an aforementioned friend living on Coney for years, and I've never been. Well, I sure blew that, since ever being anywhere in the city is never gonna happen for me.

I’m sorry that I never got to Coney Island when I lived in NYC. I got a job as a flight attendant and when asked, “Will you relocate anywhere?” I said, “I ain’t going to Cleveland.” Got based out west but once had to go there for a trade show. I loved it. I hope you do too ZW.

I had a great time following your little adventure! I'll tell ya, I am absolutely following your lead when I eventually get to NYC. I want that Nathan's dog after experiencing a Chicago dog!

You're so cool, and a big part of your vibe with me is that nearly daily shot of the Empire State Building in all its resplendence. I'm looking forward to what new things you'll have to show us through photos!

That pigeon had a funky walk too, like he was bouncing to the music, it was kinda adorable.

You're welcome. I loved the window display, I kept wondering how busy they had to get to sell all that.

Great. So why do I pay you annually to subscribe to a song pitching thing that you run (presuming that you are the same Ziggy Wiggy)? I haven't received any pitches in several years.

Steve! Dat you?

I’d like to welcome you and invite you to come and watch a movie with us. We watch movies on Saturday night together on the mothership Wonkette that is linked to Ziggy’s stack.

There might be one that you’d like. Take a look at Ziggy’s stack and you will see what movies we’re going to be viewing in the next month.

We have a really good time!

We all watch a movie together and then we talk about it in the comments.

this ZiggyWiggy might not be the person you were looking for, but they might be the person you need. Come watch a movie with us. We have fun.!

Thank you so much, I appreciate it, but I’m so busy being creative that I don’t have time to watch movies mostly.

Awe… we’ll miss you!

Keeping busy with creative things is pretty damn cool!

This is the way!

Hope to see you around, don’t be a stranger.

I am not that Ziggy Wiggy, I have no idea what you are talking about. I am ziggywiggy and write about movies for Wonkette. Look at my profile. I also take cool pics.
