The Singing Cabdriver

We were catching a cab to Dyker Heights one Saturday morning and happened to get into this guy's car. He pulled out a wireless microphone, flipped on some sort of karaoke machine, and serenaded us with Italian love songs on the BQE. It was the oddest cab ride of our lives, but kept us smiling for the rest of the day, and of course it earned him a nice tip. We imagine he does pretty well shuttling tourists from the airport and singing New York, New York. Though as the sticker on the roof reminds us, "Driver carries no cash. He's Married."
