**** THE GLORIOUS CORNER
Story By: G. H. HARDING ****




Shannon Say It Ain’t So --- After many successful years together with Todd Pettengill hosting Scott & Todd in the Morning on WPLJ/New York, Scott Shannon announced on the air this morning that he is retiring from WPLJ after 22 years at the station.

Pettengill will continue as the host of The Todd Show during the same 6 AM-10 AM time slot.

“Of course I’ll miss being a part of the morning show here on PLJ and I might even pop back in from time to time and try to get Todd to play a Rascals song or two,” Shannon said.

"Scott and I had an amazing run and I'll miss our mornings together and cherish the memories we made. I'm also very excited about the opportunity ahead with a very talented group of people that I know our listeners are going to love," Pettengill said.

Shannon, who I’ve known for years and is unquestionably the real deal in every way, is just a force of nature. His talents, intelligence and encyclopedia-know…

LEONARDO DICAPRIO ABOUT RIVER PHOENIX

River Phoenix


Superstar Leonardo Dicaprio is regretting not introducing himself to River Phoenix at a Halloween party, because hours later, Phoenix lost his life outside a Los Angeles California nightclub. DiCaprio was at the beginning of his Hollywood career when he spied his longtime hero Phoenix was at a party on Halloween night. The up and coming star, who was 18 at the time, was desperate to corner his idol for a chat but didn’t have time to approach Phoenix before he left the bash. And DiCaprio will always remember the missed opportunity, because 23-year-old Phoenix collapsed and died from a drug overdose outside the Viper Room a few hours later. He tells Esquire magazine, "When I was eighteen, River Phoenix was far and away my hero. Think of all those early great performances - My Own Private Idaho, Stand by Me. I always wanted to meet him. One night, I was at this Halloween party, and he passed me. He was beyond pale - he looked white. Before I got a chance to say hello, …

MACY'S 4TH OF JULY @ HUNTERS POINT SOUTH LEAVES FOR BROOKLYN BRIDGE

James Edstrom On NBC About Macy's Fireworks Abuse
GOOD RIDDANCE !  We are jumping for joy here in Hunters Point South now that Macy's will not be here this year. Every year they come into our neighborhood and abuse us. They lock us up like animals, they take away our freedom while they celebrate freedom. They ignore residents e mails asking for some kind of kindness from this corporate monster. They fight with us about everything and take everything and leave us with a empty holiday.
We go on TV to complain, they do nothing but pass the buck around and every year we end up locked up like caged animals in our building. They blame Homeland Security, Homeland security blames Macy's and every year it is the same, locked up like caged animals. Our pets are terrified with all the fireworks blowing up, our air is polluted and they leave a mess that we have to deal with. Macy's entertains their employees, their best customers, their buyers and we are left footing the bill by ou…

Chase calls cops on Mayor Richard Thomas while professionally and peacefully Inquiring about MV City's Signature Account.
Today Mayor Richard Thomas discussed how staff at JP Morgan Chase summoned the police on him, his staff member, and a Mount Vernon Police detective as the Mayor sought to deposit a six figure check and access to the City’s online banking records. A Chase employee called the police on Wednesday, April 25, after Mayor Thomas was invited into a conference room and after Mayor Thomas had introduced the two people with him, including the police detective.
The response by the White Plains Police Department was resolved amicably after one of the responding officers recognized the Mount Vernon Police detective.
Mayor Thomas believes that race certainly played a role in the Chase employees calling the police. The two staffers who accompanied Mayor Thomas are black and Hispanic.
“As a Mayor and as a young, well-educated black man living during this turbulent time in soc…

Upper East Side hotspot T-Bar Steak & Lounge, which has been warmly embraced by New Yorkers since it first opened its doors in 2007, is noted for its perfect execution of classic dishes.
