Enjoy Memorial Day weekend — if you can beat the traffic
NY Post
Memorial Day. A time to remember patriots who gave their lives.
I once reported that NYC’s little chunk out east was so stuffed one Memorial Day weekend that Steven Spielberg could only navigate East Hampton to Bridgehampton traffic by bicycle.
And the Hampton Inn in Hampton Bays?
One lady — 30ish — had to wait on line 40 minutes for breakfast.
A waitress finally plopped her at a table with: “You won’t like it here. This place is for young people.”
Mark Kostabi’s hustling paintings. The routine is snacks at his place, plus maybe collectors, plus assorted actress types, plus ex-Letterman drummer Anton Fig, plus a mom whose son has the “Joy Luck Club,” plus a jazz musician, plus a promoter who schleps in models so everybody stares at them plus at his paintings to see which looks better.
