80 Percent Of Life Is Showing Up . . . Eventually
The mayor continues to be late, often to hilarious effect:
Posted: March 17th, 2015 | Filed under: Things That Make You Go "Oy"Mayor Bill de Blasio was late again this morning. The Daily News reported that he arrived 15 minutes behind schedule to a St. Patrick’s Day Mass at St. Patrick’s Cathedral. This was after he somehow managed to be equally late to a St. Patrick’s Day breakfast and reception in his own house, Gracie Mansion.
The Mass started without him, and Cardinal Timothy Dolan gave the Mayor his own special welcome when he finally took his pew. “Mayor de Blasio, we’re happy you’re here,” said the Cardinal, keeping things gracious.
“Happy” wasn’t the word earlier this month in the Rockaways, when Mr. de Blasio was about 20 minutes late to a St. Patrick’s Day Parade, skipped half the route and got booed by the crowd.
