I’m still recovering from the epic weekend that just passed— between the Substak Bestsellers event, the opening of a new Aussie pub in New York (Old Mates), and the epic 100th-anniversary celebrations for the New Yorker’s cartoonist cohort, my sleep score is now lower than federal government employment rates.

The New Yorker magazine appeared on the newstands for the first time 100 years ago this past week. The first issue was dated February 21, 1925. I won’t go into a whole history here (even if I were capable!), but it has been such an influential publication in its lifetime, I wanted to honor the milestone birthday. Plus, it has been my professional “home” for 46 years, and I love the magazine.

Fitting, given that the 42nd Street Times Square station at rush hour is essentially the tenth circle of hell - the one reserved for New Yorkers who thought they could make it to the Upper East Side in under an hour.
