Here’s another thing to throw in your “Weird Taxi Related News” file (is there any other kind?). I was noticing on Twitter last night some of my Brooklyn living friends tweeting photos of a yellow cab burning in the middle of the street like there’s no tomorrow. Just right smack dab in the middle of the snowy street. Not like a pussy ass little fire, a full on Post-Lakers-Championship-Victory riot fire.

I was telling My Pal The Crook about it today, and I tried to find some pictures. In that pursuit, I ended up finding this video of ANOTHER CAB that also exploded last night. This one on 2nd Ave I guess. This fucker explodes like in the movies. At first you think it’s just a fire then, BOOM! Shit’s bananas. I guess I didn’t think cars actually did that… Also, why would this happen in the snow. Is this a conspiracy? Double also, I was awoken last week by a manhole exploding literally right in front of my building (looked/sounded exactly like this). Shitty, but epic, alarm clock.
