Gothamist has an excellent photo tribute to Joe Ades, who famously hawked vegetable peelers from the sidewalks in Union Square. Unfortunately, Mr. Ades died this past Sunday. I’m not ashamed to admit that I shelled out $5 for one of his peelers. Years later, the thing still works as well as the day I bought it.

TL: We do have one thing going at The State. We decided that as we start to die off, the living members will get to dress whoever dies for their coffin. Yeah. So the only member of The State who gets to dress themself is whoever outlives all the rest of us. Otherwise, people are going to be buried in swimsuits and roller-skates, or like a full Iron Man costume.

AVC: Any specific plans for specific people?

KKS: Oh yeah, but that’s top secret. I’ll tell you that I’ve got a lot of jock straps and scuba gear ready.
