We've got the extra long blocks on this side of the street because of the train tracks and little cup-de-sacs, and that means fewer corners, and fewer cans.

Speaking of which, someone may want to step up on patrols to catch fare beaters at subway stations and chase away people begging for money on the train and those "showtime!" "perfomers".<br /><br />It's also high time someone enforced the pooper scooper law.

Sure these minor infractions pale against the shootings and drug dealing. Anyone remember the Squeegee Men" and Giuliani's Campaign? Crazy idea but could the beat cops issue tickets to people for these stupid infractions? Would it have any effect? I dunno.
