Metropolitan Diary analysis: 2006-03-20

Link to Monday's Metropolitan Diary
I have to say that this was one of the least funny Metropolitan Diaries in recent memory.

• Little boy asks senior citizens "How do you get to be old?" Category: Precocious NY Kids
• In a rare religious Metro Diary story, a "large man in camouflage" on the subway claims he shows "his devotion to God through his actions" when "grilled" "about not going church". Then, as if God gave him the chance to show said devotion, he leaps up to help a sick passenger. Category: New Yorkers Aren't So Bad, After All
• Man near U.N. hears someone order a "Kofi Annan bagel", but it turns out he's saying "coffee and a bagel"! Oh, that's rich! Category: Amusing Misspellings
  
• Bostonian gets lost in Queens on way home from Brooklyn; cop takes Bostonian on confusing ride through Queens; Bostonian is eventually led right to the BQE. Category: Rubes in the Big City
• Oh, the irony: Bathroom in showroom of bathroom contractor is out of order! Category: Jaded New Yorkers (by this I mean the contractor; I really didn't know what to call this one)
  
• New Jersey 4-year-old "Avigayil" asks if she has a "New York accident". Category: Amusing Misspellings (this one misses Precocious NY Kids by virtue of the kid being a NJ resident)
