In a move that is exponentially dumber than changing out all of NYC’s street signs, Mayor Bloomberg will announce a plan to rename the Queensboro Bridge after former Mayor Ed Koch, a change the Juice Crew would never co-sign and quite possibly the worst idea since the Triborough was changed to the RFK, a designation that no one uses. In an equally frivolous move, lawmakers voted to rename the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel after a governor you’ve never heard of because they can. (Photo: joseph a/Flickr)

And this just in: NYC is planning on re-naming the midtown tunnel after baseball player Rusty Kuntz, thereby giving us a funny choice when taking a cab back to queens: "Hey buddy, d'you want me to take the
Koch or you wanna go trough the Rusty Kuntz?"
Please don't even consider this. It cost millions do change the Triboro to the JFK and it will always be the Triboro. No offense to good old Ed Koch but if he was mayor now he would think the idea was a waste of money. Erect a statue of Ed in front of his favorite Chinese rest would be a nice idea and give him a smile and saved the city tons of $$ desperately needed for more dire programs.
Simon & Garfunkel gonna have to come out of retirement and redo the song?
