David Paterson at the movies

colonie center theater exteriorGovernors -- they're just like us!

They go to the movies at Colonie Center on a Saturday night! They see the 9 pm showing of the Sex and the City movie! With their entourage! And security detail! And after the movie they shake the hands of all the mall security guards! And hop in their motorcade of ethanol-powered SUVs!

OK, maybe governors aren't just like us.

Thanks for posting that number.... I had asked my friend Ricky to keep it for me, but he lost it. I kept reminding him, "Ricky, don't lose that number, you don't want to call nobody else", but he didn't listen.
