Musings from the Queen of Queens, or My 6 years of living in Queens and greater NYC, where I moved to work for the water department and ended up, among other things, traveling the world and appearing on a billboard on Times Square.

New York is chock-full of spas, but apparently there wasn't one big enough for this customer, so a Brooklyn firehouse was ordered by the City to shut down for 30 minutes and wash .... an elephant.

Lucky Suzie! (That's the elephant.)

Only in New York.
