Pedibomber Strikes
Times Square Recruiting Station

He's got the multiple bombings. He's got the pulled-tight hoodie. Now he's apparently even got a manifesto...

We checked, and the Unabomber - Ted Kaczynski - is still serving his life sentence in a Florence, Colorado prison.

So we think the idiot that's now pedaled up to three NYC buildings in the past three years, tossing bombs from his ten-speed and biking away into the night with barely a gear shift, needs his own name: we suggest the Pedibomber.

We shot the photo above (the ill-fated military recruiting center is at bottom center) as part of a "Times Square by Night" photoset a few months ago. And we're glad we grabbed it when we did: even during the December shoot, we were chased away from the recruiting booth by a friendly pair of cops who said we couldn't shoot with a tripod in Times Square because its "such a sensitive area"...
