Astorian Weekend Edition - September 30
by Joey In Astoria

Friday September 30, 2005
It's fall! My favorite season! Finally, you can bust out your corduroy and alpaca. Oooh! Classics never die, so bike over to Astoria Park. Admire the newly cleaned shoreline and then pick up some pretty fall leaves and decorate your apartment with them. Shut up. You know you want to.

You've never been to the Museum of African Art in Sunnyside (another short bike ride away) and you haven't drawn anything since you got kicked out of art class for that papier mâché incident, so mosey over to the museum and do both at Strike a Pose! on Saturday at 2 p.m. After the ride home warm up to *four* kinds of green tea at the new Himalayan Teahouse on 31st Avenue between 34th and 35th Streets.

When you've had enough of sporting your fall wardrobe, cozy up to your favorite Mac product (P.S. If you bought the Nano watch out that that bit doesn't snap in half, dude) and tune into Astoria's homegrown podcast ThisShowAgain. They'll make you giggle.
