Morning Joe remains

Joe Jr.s, a venerable, fifty year old diner on 6th Avenue and 12th,, closed its doors this weekend. Landlord greed being the usual culprit. But the Mud Truck on Christopher and 7th remains, serving dark caffeinated brews to blurry eyed NYers every morning....

A sad sign of the times, I guess. But you can't miss that big orange truck, even if you have blurry eyes.

That is a bit sad, but good to see that there's coffee truck when you need one.

Nice truck - even if your're very sleepy you couldn't probably miss it!

That's a shame, but I bet the coffee truck can "steer" clear of the same fate

I read where a cup of Starbucks as 180 grams of caffeine. I'd guess this rolling Mud Truck is about the same. I thought New Yorkers were always wide awake and alert?

Nice shot!

They're falling like dominoes aren't they KM? Well this fine truck will wake you up before the caffeine kicks in!

Great name.

And great match. I watched it from the third set on. Could have gone either way. Andy was much, much better than I expected. (I'm welching on the bet.)
