Recession Special: Save $1 – Gray’s Papaya at 37th Street & 8th Avenue, NYC
Update from reader rubberchicken – 10/28/08:
The irony is that the recession special has been around since the 1990’s…they just raised the price this week due to the ACTUAL recession.

Monday, October 27th, 2008Zima: 1993 – 2008
Sunday, October 26th, 2008Zima: the early 90’s drink that everyone tried at least once, while listening to Jesus Jones, and then never touched again.
As of October 10, 2008, Zima is now dead. I was more surprised to learn that it was still being produced.
Bartles & Jaymes are expected to attend the funeral.
Farewell Zima, we hardly liked ye.
