Oh. Duh.

I had no idea why, but at the party on Sunday several people talked to me about the new mayor of Pittsburgh. I was surprised New Yorkers were so well informed about the ins and outs of the recent events and political struggles to come in Pittsburgh.
Of course, I hadn't read the front page of Saturday's NY Times. Otherwise I would have known why anyone outside of Allegheny county even cared!

i was going to send you the link...i just read it. mayor ravenstahl (still sounds odd) had an interview on CNN the other day and will be a featured guest on letterman later this week.

i don't want to put the cart before the horse, but i'm hoping that he is able to make the city more attractive to the post-college crowd, as well as lead this city to better days.
