If that's smoke and not steam, then as I recall- white smoke means that it's under control.Habemus paper!
And that's probably what was burning. Street people keeping warm, burned a little too much paper.
Insurance fraud for the NYT troubles, that's a bit out of proportion. Bankruptcy easier.

Well, even though this was not what we might have hoped for (no injuries, of course) this was one of the funniest threads I have ever read. It competes with the poopie in the pool thread from back in '99 or thereabouts (anyone have a link for that one?)

"Subscription and Advertising income is so poor, this is an insurance fire. "
Maybe the income is so poor that they were burning newspapers to keep warm?

I would like to suggest that all Republicans in NY rush down to the Times building and blow as hard as you can - yes, both of you! LOL. What are they blowing for? To put out the flames or to fan them?

Hi - I find this thread to be a relief after all the infighting the last few days over the ports. And I rather think these "freaking wannabee comedians" would be among the first to help in a disaster, don't you? Maybe I haven't been here so long that I've lost my sense of humor.
Pay no mind to it if it offends you. Take care.

One thing's for certain. It's not a terrorist attack.
To: Bubbatuck
Amen. Especially on a thread like this where I'm trying to find REAL information - the same joke gets old the 200th time. Yes I know, you want breaking news, but get a chitty chat room instead.
To: Pharmboy
This is a hoax. Just talked to my nephew who works in the building. There is no fire, and there has been no fire at any time today.

I will gladly contribute some water to put the fire out with, if I can drink it first.
