Runner Eliza Wierzbinska frowns with her marathon number at the Javits Center on Saturday. Even though she lives in New York City, she has sympathy for the runners who traveled in for the marathon and spent a lot of money to get to the Big Apple.
Marathoner Heather Nerhood, after flying in from Texas for the now-canceled race, couldn’t just cool her heels Saturday.
Along with hundreds of other disappointed marathoners, Nerhood burned off her frustration by running through Central Park.
“We were upset [Friday] because the announcement was made while we were at the Javits Center picking up our bibs,” said Nerhood, a 41-year-old kindergarten teacher, referring to Mayor Bloomberg’s last-minute change of heart that slammed the brakes on the race.

I get annoyed at bicyclist that ride that way also. It especially irritates me when they are wearing earbuds listening to an IPOD; that is very dangerous. But there is no excuse for:
I come as close as I can to running them off the road without actually hitting them.
Someone please post the picture of the miniature violins because that is what the majority of Americans think of their complaining.
I see the above advice to care about the victims. I don't see that coming from the politicians: just self-interest.
Like I care what you think. I’m sick and tired of living in a community where cyclists think they got the right to ride down the middle of the street holding up traffic and runners doing the same. And as to the conservatives in quotations, sir, I’m conservative enough to make anyone else look like a New Dealer. I am because I wandered the wilderness of liberalism for years until I saw the light.
Whine me a river!!!
Jeesh already, people died and all these pussies can do is cry?
Go home to your safe, warm bed, get a nice dinner, and STFU!!
No, you haven't seen the light.
You still display the callous, reckless disregard for human life which characterizes 0bammunism.
That, or you're a liar.
No one calls me a liar chum. I voted for Democrats up until 1996. What I posted pales in comparison to that others have posted in the past on the same subject so if you going to lash out at me, spread your admonishments around and spare me your self-righteousness, it’s just a phony form of respectability. I was being cheeky in my post, maybe a little too much perhaps for some peoples tastes but so be it.
Awwwww ... Did po' widdle snookums gettum feewings huwt?????
ROFL!!!!
What I posted pales in comparison to that others have posted in the past
"LOOK!!!!!! They're doing it TOOOO!!!"
Yeah, jerkoff ... I have seen it, and I ripped on them. It's not your concern, however.
Your concern is that you have publicly admitted to a form of antisocial and potentially criminal behaviour, which shows a grotesque disregard for human life.
There are three possibilites.
1) You're knowingly telling the truth. That makes you an 0bamorrhoid scumbag of the worst sort.
2) You're knowingly representing falsehood as truth. That makes you a liar. Are you a liar?
3) You can't tell truth from falsehood. That makes you delusional. If that's your problem, seek professional help.
This isn't the sort of thing that sane and decent folk joke about.
No, I’m not a liar, are you? I vote Republican btw. All those things you listed, taking my inventory. Projecting are you? Listen jerkoff, I don’t give rats ass what you think, got it? Now screw you and goodnight. And do not ever attempt posting to me again.
Then why did you bother replying? Hmmmm? Is this another item you're having trouble telling the truth about?
And do not ever attempt posting to me again.
BWAHAHAHAHAHahahahahahahahaha!
And you replied after that! Bwahahahahaha yourself stupid. Man, I’ve gotten under your skin, haven’t I, you bumptious Brit bastard. Not telling the truth? I am. I’m a former lib who now votes conservative Listen, seriously Poindexter, buzz off. Over and out.
Many conservatives ride bikes and are strong 2nd amendment supporters. Visit any large cycling forum and you’ll see more and more cyclists carrying weapons for self-defense. Please don’t threaten their lives because they slow you down by 20 seconds.
Sure. I'm having fun.
You're the silly fool that "thinks" (if the word "think" can really be used to describe the goings-on in your head) threats and bluster are of any value. You're the one who has boastfully proclaimed a lack of interest in others' opinions.
I'm the one laughing at your folly.
you bumptious Brit bastard.
Brit??? Whatever ...
"Bastard"????
Please. I'm a "Bustard". Can't you read?
Not telling the truth?
Well??? Are you telling the truth?
Do you, or do you not attempt to assault and threaten the lives of folks on the road who displease you?
You notoriously and infamously claimed to do that. Your claim was either true or false.
If your claim was true, you're a foul, disgusting 0bamorrhoid.
If your claim was false, you're a liar. Under the circumstances, for you to admit being a liar would be the lesser of two evils.
If you have no idea whether your claim was true or false, you're delusional. You could claim to be delusional, of course ... I might even believe you.
Over and out.
< snicker >
< snort >
BWAHAHAHAHAHahahahahahaha!
Yes I can read. “bustard’’ is a type of bird found in places like Australia , so maybe you’re an Aussie. “Bustard’’ is not a word Americans commonly use and it seems to be a cheeky(another word Americans don’t normally use) play on ‘’arrogant bastard’’. Further more Americans don’t spell ‘’behavior’’ with a ‘’u’’ as Brits do. I’m laughing at your bumptious attitude. You’re like some silly old matronly scold. I’m only not interested in your opinions of me, so don’t go far a field. No , I don’t threaten people or assault anyone. I just honk my horn at obnoxious cyclists who think they own the road. As I said I was being cheeky, again, I should have stated that, a faux pas on my part. I really think you ought to see someone yourself old man and get to the route of this ‘’bumptious’’ attitude you have. Some repressed desire to control other I suspect but then I’m not a doctor. In any event do piss off as you’ve become quite tiresome.
Back in #44 (remember that?) you said:
This is why when I’m driving and I see elitist types like this woman here and cyclists dressed in their cycling get-up ,like some modern version of a Medieval Harlequin, I come as close as I can to running them off the road without actually hitting them.
So ... at least one of those statements is false; they contradict each other. Regardless, you have presented both as truth. Which is it? Either one, or will you come up with yet another contradictory claim?
The rest of your post is really quite amusing. Your pathetic attempt to discern my background by analyzing my posting style is a miserable failure, and doesn't exactly cover you with glory.
Bye. If you have anything further to say, then I shall taunt you again to-morrow.
God, you’re amusing. I know what I said. You’re attempts to back track on who you are are the funniest part of your rantings. Again, thanks for so much free parking in your head . I rather enjoy spinning you up. I especially like how you dodge my questions. Really, where does this attitude of moral superiority come from in you?
Only if from his own pocket.
That said what part of Hurricane hitting NYC can those Morons not quite understand? Several days before hitting it was a pretty well given fact that mass destruction was coming to that area. I would suggest to them they run a private Self Pitty Marathon to Philly and catch a plane home from there. The fresh air would do them some good.
Nice try ...
Trouble is, you're the one who posted both #44, AND #114 ...
The claims made in those two posts can logically both be false, but they cannot both be true.
That makes at least one of them a lie ... and that makes you a liar.
Thanks for exposing yourself.
Keep giving me all that free parking in your head. It lets me know who’s in control here.
