Steve Stanzak: Five Minutes 'Til Book Deal
Steve Stanzak, everyone's favorite homeless NYU student, hits the big time today. Profiled in the NYT, the student who spent most of the year sleeping in the Bobst library (yet somehow never felt compelled to jump to his death) has now been granted a dorm room. (Don't start lining up outside NYU for free housing, real homeless people. You aren't cute and you don't get good grades. Go back to your Washington Square park bench.)
What's next for Steve? You know he's gotten emails from about 34 hungry agents this morning. Sell that book, little fella. Just watch out, because Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler will be on your ass like a chicken on a wounded worm.
