Roger clark ny19/8/2023 ![]() I just kinda groaned and reversed it, wondering if the folks at Gothamist noticed. When I got back to the station, I went straight to the bathroom to “freshen up” and looked in the mirror and noticed the buttons were on the inside not the outside. ![]() Add to that my 2-and-a-half year-old son at home, plus my band has a show Friday night, and I have not gotten a lot of sleep. (I don’t love the whole shirt and tie thing all that much.) It’s been a crazy week working on regular stories plus a special project I am developing with some co-workers. But I’m kind of a neurotic dude and that just leads to the sweat floodgates opening.Īs for the shirt, I have to blame lack of sleep for putting the grey Champion polo from Target on inside out. It’s amazing, I can control it when I anchor, so I don’t have to look like Albert Brooks in Broadcast News. By the time I parked and walked to Gothamist I was drenched, and my pals over there offered me water as if I had just done a triathlon.ĭoes the sweating thing occur often, and what happened with the shirt? Lunch led to me running a little late with traffic and then parking is a pain in Dumbo, so I was getting nervous and started sweating like a pig. So I stopped at Burger King in Astoria for lunch. I had been to see one of his pieces in the Bronx and was headed to Brooklyn to interview Gothamist’s publisher Jake Dobkin in Dumbo. I was assigned to do a story on the Banksy phenomenon. So I just got back to NY1 from headquarters and turns out my polo shirt was inside out the whole time. Yikes!

The rest of our paths are north and southbound, and it gets you cutting across several major highways as well as Tibbetts Brook,” Mezik said. “It is the only path in Van Cortlandt Park that travels east to west. Urban Park Rangers Michalle Catania and Victoria Mezik showed NY1 around the east end of Van Cortlandt, where there are plenty of trails to explore including the John Muir Trail.
