Good Tuesday afternoon in New York City, where the Whitney will soon be free for people 25 and under.
Here's what else is happening:
- Of course John Wilson is the Michael Jordan of finding distressing Zillow listings.
- Nassau County Supreme Court Justice Dawn M. Jimenez was killed while riding on the back of a motorcycle that collided with a car on the Long Island Expressway over the weekend, court officials said. She was 60.
- Thanks to United Airlines' new Newark-to-Nuuk direct flight, American tourists are overrunning Greenland.
- The Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New York, which is the landlord for the esteemed Connelly Theater in the East Village, all of a sudden started paying attention to the plays slated for production — and booting shows if they don't approve of the material.
- Baby's All Right is opening an East Village outpost.
- England doesn't do Thanksgiving (or Halloween, really) so Christmas is already in full swing over there.
- In other news from the commonwealth: An alpaca sneezed on the king!
- Stay "swicy."
- And finally, bless you:
