You would have to be pretty dark to get away with it, Jennifer Lopez couldnt, she got ####### for saying niggaz in one of her songs when referring to her friends.

My wife is a Filipina but frequently mistaken for being Mexican around here. She doesn't take offense and finds it kind of amusing.

Crews from the Riese Organization on Sunday were transforming a Dunkin' Donuts on

34th Street near Seventh Avenue into a Tim Hortons. Twelve more Dunkin' Donuts

are undergoing the same process, and will debut Monday morning as Tim Hortons,

giving New Yorkers their first taste of the Canadian doughnuts and coffee chain that

has developed a cult following.

Penn Plaza (LIRR Level)

Madison Square Garden Taxi Ramp

401 7th Avenue (32nd Street)

22 Court Street (Brooklyn)

152 West 34th Street (7th Avenue)

761 7th Avenue (50th Street)

2 Penn Plaza (Amtrak Level)

47 East 42nd Street (Between Park & Madison Avenue)

1276 Lexington Avenue (Between 85th & 86th Street)

2547 Broadway (Between 95th & 96th Street)
