The Key to the City: Free Subway Rides Part III

Here's a way you could get Unlimited Subway rides... for years to come: Purchase the Key to the City.

What?  Are we talking about the Mayor coming by and... 

Nope.  He's too busy for you.  And you need to do something about that mess in the living room.  What I'm actually talking about here... is the key... that a few MTA workers (and a few lucky citizens who don't mind risking arrest) which will open the exit to any subway transit area to bypass the turnstiles.  I'd rehash the article about it, but you can pretty much read all about it here:  Magic Keys  Make sure not to tell them Timmy sent ya.  Especially if you end up in Rikers, you crazy fool.

Stay Alert and Stay Safe my cream filled cannoli puffs,

Timmy

Free Education in New York City - Free DVDs - From the largest association of it's kind

If I told you right now, that I could get you the equivalent of a Netflix/Blockbuster type system, where you can rent entire television series, on dvd, for free: would you be in?  How about if I told you that the same system is like a Barnes and Noble that loans you New Release best-selling books?  And if I told you there's free computer access, free computer classes, bathrooms in New York city as well as training, self-improvement, art, and education classes... all for free?  What would you pay to combine all of these into one, low, monthly price?  How about free?  That a fair price?

Did you know that collectively the largest library system on the face of the planet is located in your New York City?  It's true.  It must be, because I overheard a tour guide telling people this about a month ago.  Never-the-less, it's certainly a large and majestic system, filled with a wealth of information.  But one thing that constantly surprises me... is that people tend to avoid taking advantage of the amazing things it provides.

The New York Public Library (NYPL) is more than amazing for a simple comedy writer: I am able to read a stream of related material that has yet to find a stopping point.  And at the same time... there are classes in:

1. Keyboarding class for free

2. Learn to use an iPad for free

3. Learn to use the Internet for free

4. Introduction to Microsoft Word for free

5. Learn shopping online for free

6. Advanced email for free (your grandmother or mother needs to take this class, doesn't she?)

7. Underwater basket weaving... for free.  (I have not fact-checked this class. But I saw the pool).

8. MS Excel for beginners for free

9. Free classes for kids that are endless: free art classes, writing classes, I even saw a class on how to design a cubcake: Here's the link

10 Learn to search the internet for free

Get the picture?  Even in my narrow field, I took a class in how to become a better public speaker for free, read three books with Stand-Up comedy in the actual name, and had the greatest urination of all time.

Okay... remember when I said that I had the greatest urination of all time?  That was inappropriate.  I've been a little stressed lately.  I know.  I'll scramble to take a Yoga class for free and then perhaps relax in a free meditation class:

Here's the actual class listings:

1. Meditation

2. Yoga

So get with it, my little blueberry cobblers; the world of education is at your fingertips!

Until of course, they take it all away.  So there's that.

Right now the NYPL is looking at a $47 million dollar budget cut.  Do the city and the tourists a favor and sign the petition on the website it's uh... free: http://www.nypl.org/

Stay Alert and Keep Reading!  

This is only the third day of my launch and already there has been a traffic volume which doubles every day.  So thanks for sharing!
