He’s told New Yorkers what to eat, what to drink and how to get around on two wheels, and now Mayor Bloomberg is taking on the tallest order of them all — the city’s elevators.
In a new health kick, the mayor yesterday declared war on the devices that get office workers to their desks by the mere press of a button.
How about taking a daily hike instead, suggested our calorie-busting mayor.
Bloomberg — who remains strikingly svelte at 71 — said he would introduce legislation forcing new buildings and those undergoing major renovations to make it easier to walk up and down between floors.
"Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual." Thomas Jefferson
"If people can’t trust not only the executive branch but also don’t trust Congress, and don’t trust federal judges, to make sure that we’re abiding by the Constitution with due process and rule of law, then we’re going to have some problems here." - Barack Obama, June 7, 2013
This guy is just full of surprises. Here in NY we have to deal with his face almost every night..and wonder what he is going to attack next. I dont live in the city..but close enough to get their news as my local news. This old guy has enough money to world tour for the rest of his life. He should do that.
