WASHINGTON: Ron Carey, president of the Teamsters and instigator of the week-old strike at UPS, signalled today that he wasn't about to be bullied by the firm's threat to eliminate 15,000 jobs by week...

So, since I had extra time and I hate to pay 30 out-of-pocket bucks for a cab, or even $10 for the Carey Bus from LaGuardia to mid-town, I decided to see if you can get from the airport to mid-town Manhattan on $1.50.

This brings up a terrifying specter from decades past that Cooper, for one, is quick to exorcize. "Alan Alda," he says during a discussion of potential cover subjects, "is not a GQ hero." Amen to that...
