Curry in a Hurry

Back when I had the flu (or, rather, shortly thereafer), I stopped into Curry in a Hurry at Lex and 23rd to get some mulligatawny. (In retrospect, this is not a suitable substitute for traditional chicken soup).

In any case, posted near the counter was a flyer that said something like:

Taxi Drivers!

I lost a tote bag that was very important to me in the back of a cab. I had a very memorable appearance -- I am a large man, and I was wearing a wedding dress. I was with two friends who were dressed as bridesmaids. If you have my tote bag, please call....

This was funny both in that Mr. Large Man used Curry in a Hurry as his distribution point for reaching the cab-driving population of New York, and also funny because, while I saw the sign in early November, the man didn't actually mention anything about having lost the tote bag on Halloween, which sounds like a likely explanation.
