Valentine's Day 2025...my neck hurts and I think it's from looking at my phone every time there's breaking news...The White House...and 45/47 are giving me whiplash...and the local news...there's always Mayor Adams...the dumb chameleon...but lo and behold...in the middle of all this mishegas...a woman had a baby on the W train...I really didn't blink about the baby...I was too focused on what the hell is the W train?...for the people on that car Wednesday morning...well, the W might have stood for Why...as in why the hell did I take this train today?...imagine being late for work saying...a woman had a baby on my train today...but, to prove all stereotypes wrong about New Yorkers...people helped this woman deliver her baby...someone even had a pocketknife to cut the cord...we won't discuss the actual carrying such pocketknife on the subway...and of course others whipped out phones and took video...it was discovered that the women was missing for months from her native Florida...Netflix is calling...but in all of this was a pause...a miracle underground...and I thought...did the MTA make her pay an extra fare?...but seriously...winters are cold and dark in NY...and the world is closing in these days...and a baby born on your commute beats a lunatic dangerously invading your personal space...I once heard someone say Valentine's Day is a Hallmark-made holiday...but I disagree...it's a time to spend with those we love...in person...on the phone...in our cherished memories...and let a little goodness into our hearts...even from a heartwarming news blip on the local evening news...step lively, watch the closing doors...
