When we started the site, we tossed in the tagline “(Somewhat) Daily Meditations From The E Train.” But now, as we have more and more contributors that don’t hail from our home city of New York (some as far away as Guatemala), we need something new.
So, we’re asking you, O Faithful Reader. Suggest a new tagline so that we don’t have to do any more thinking than absolutely necessary. Put your suggestions in the comment boxes, and we’ll pick our favorite.
The “winner” gets the eternal glory of seeing their tagline up on our site. We’ll also throw in a free bag of jack and a handful of squat!

“Flinging rhyme in two thousand nine.”
(OK so I know they don’t rhyme)
“Glossing over life’s tragedies”
“Because random is our middle name”
“Seventeen is the new black”
and finally
“Self-flagellate since two thousand eight”
(see how I brought that around full circle!)
