Going Underground: You won't find a bigger support of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority than me. I find the subway far more convenient than a taxi any day, but the MTA's latest proposed cuts of $20 million to bus and subway service for next year just don't add up.

The mayor or whoever else has their head on straight needs to bail this thing out immediately. The subway is a big part of what makes New York City great and we shouldn't sit by idly while it collapses. (NYT)

I think his daughter Mariska is such an interesting and charming person and I remember how touching it was when she won her Golden Globe a couple of years ago, with her dad and her (hot) husband in the audience, both looking so proud.
