Last night I walked myself from the village to long island city at 4am. It was only 5 miles from Manhattan, across the two bridges through Brooklyn. I was kind of terrified when I got to the first bridge, not knowing what was on the other side but I quickly started to feel more confident. I had to just remind myself how much less scary it is then so many of the other places I wandered around. In all it took about 2 hours.
They had a massive armor exhibit at the met. It was so neat to see all the differences in helmets. Only one of hundreds of body suits gad that protrusion. Wonder what it says about the owner? I would think you wouldn't want to make a target out of it by drawing attention to it.
