Come what may ...

If New York were a boy, I would totally date him.

Kudos to Mishy, a student who's getting serious with the subjunctive.

But the real question is, if New York were a boy, which boy would he be? Celebrities facilitate group discussions, but if you're convinced that the kid down the street you kissed the summer you turned 13 epitomizes The City, we're open to a well crafted argument. No limits on age, singlehood vs. coupledom or place of origin - this is New York, afterall - everyone's welcome, dead or alive.

I'll start with The Coop (who also just made Vanity Fair's Best Dressed List ... although as Dr. Rice is also featured, perhaps that list isn't what it used to be.) Who else is a contender?
