Blog Guy, I’m planning a vacation in New York City. I know you’re a cosmopolitan traveler who used to live in the Big Apple. Any inside advice?

Don’t laugh. Looking through our photo file from yesterday I see that singer Mariah Carey seems to have run into this problem.
See the distressed look? Seems like she’s getting desperate when some stranger tells her the nearest one is four subway stops from there.
Plus, it looks in the photo below like she had to borrow some change from fans just to use the coin-operated facilities. Very embarrassing. She should have…
Are you a dimwit? The captions say she’s shooting a music video outside the Plaza Hotel. Nothing about bathrooms.
That’s the trouble with captions. They spoil the really fun explanations.
