We're trying to get to the highest point in the park to see The Gates. A NYer points out the way. After she leaves, he says: I'm pretty sure I gave her the wrong directions, but I think she's high enough. --The Ramble Overheard by: Nathan K. Claus Guy: Man, this will really put New York back on the map. --The Gates Suit: Excuse me, I wanted to ask you about your [big orange] wig. Are you advocating your support for The Gates or are you commenting on how crazy and trivial they are? Guy: Uh...what wig? --The Gates Overheard by: Greg Rutter Boy: Mom! Was that "art"? Mother: No, Michael. That was laundry. --Central Park Overheard by: Darko Vraither Old woman #1: Isn't it lovely? Old woman #2: Well, I wouldn't call it art, but I'm certainly glad New York has something to amuse it during the month of February. --MoMA roof Overheard by: Michael Bracy<br/>via <a href="http://www.overheardinnewyork.com/">Overheard in New York</a>, Feb 28, 2005
