Rawhide



Like cattle on the old black and white TV show, "Rawhide." Clint Eastwood started his career there.

Yesterday the LIRR ran on a weekday on a weekend schedule - meaning one train an hour. They charged regular fares. When trains showed up in stations closer to the Manhattan they were already packed - you could not get in and had to wait an hour.

There had been an ice storm - I stayed home because our car was covered in a sheet of ice and it was raining so I could not use the hair drier to thaw one door.

Let me see if I've got this straight. Clint Eastwood was packing 'em into cars on the LIRR?
