As we emerged from William’s memorial service in Midtown
Manhattan exactly a year ago, Saturday, December 15th, we were embraced by a
swarm of drunken Santas. The irony
of leaving the memorial for someone who died due to a substance use disorder,
only to encounter the obscenity of a mob of drunken Santas, reindeer, and elves
was not lost on us. SantaCon was
in full swing.
Fortunately the New York Times has spared me having to
reflect on this event. I’m happy
to say that Lee Seinfeld, the owner of my local watering hole, wants nothing to
do with the event.
Here is an
op-ed piece that captures my feelings nicely. http://nyti.ms/1ftAsCr Thank you Jason Gilbert.
