“Your wish, my command” – a gift from Bernie of the MTA System

File this under “silly fun”! A week or so ago, the New York Times posted an article online about the announcements made over the MTA system, and asked others to comment via Twitter (@nytimes) or via the website about what readers would like to hear the MTA subway announcers to say. I jokingly tweeted to @nytimes that I would love it if I heard over the speaker “Have fun at the audition/rehearsal/performance/party, Sierra!” I imagined that would be a great pick-me-up, especially if it’s 7am and I’m on my sleepy way to sign up for an EPA.

Well, Bernie Wagonblast (who has an awesome name and who is an official voice of the New York subways, AirTrain JFK and Newark) decided to record and post a quick, 3-second, simple audio track of him wishing me well at “the audition” via Twitter; as he tweeted “Your wish, my command.”

I love it! Hear the full 3-second well-wishing here:
