Let's see..... carry the 1..... holy crap!

A hot dog vendor is being evicted from his prime sidewalk real estate in front of the Metropolitan Museum of Art because he can't afford his rent. OK folks, ask yourself this question - how much do you think the New York City Parks Department charges for rent on that sidewalk? Let's figure out a price per month. Go ahead.... write a figure down. OK, now write a higher number down, an even more outrageous amount.

Now go look at my first comment for the actual rent charged per month for that spot.

Put your coffee down first. And swallow.
