I Have This Terrible Need To Point Out That Raven Refers To One Of Several Species Within The Crow Or

I have this terrible need to point out that Raven refers to one of several species within the Crow or Corvus genus. That said, the joke might still carry some weight if we're referring to the American crow and the Common raven. More definitive information forthcoming.

I harbor a deep, genuine, un-"ironic" love for Gangnam Style.

I just thought I should warn you.

Located at the Prince Street station on the N and R line, Carrying On, installed in 2004, is composed of almost two hundred 6-inch high silhouettes of people hauling “stuff” as they walk the city streets. Artists Janet Zweig and Edward Del Rosario worked from thousands of photographs they took of real-life New Yorkers moving in and around the city. According to the artists, the title Carrying On can be read in a variety of ways: “People on the streets of New York are almost always carrying something, sometimes something huge and outlandish… After tragedy, New Yorkers felt that they must carry on with their lives; they really do ‘carry on.’” The result is a narrative work spanning more than 200 linear feet on each side of the station, representing the diverse community that makes up our city and featuring miniature figures, each with their own quotidian story of hope and survival.
