THE PICTURES: SIDEKICK
The actor Paul Walter Hauser emerged onto Fifth Avenue to pick up an açai bowl from a guy on a bicycle, then headed back up to his hotel room. He wore slippers, shorts, and a black tank top that exposed his biceps tattoos: on the right arm, his nineties comedy heroes (“Short & Stern & Farley & Varney & Carrey & Williams”); on the left, “1 Corinthians, 6:19-20” (“Your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit”). “I was in a weight-loss challenge with my brother-in-law,” he explained. “We said whoever loses has to get that tattoo, which is very like my family: just hella religious and extreme decisions. I lost thirty-five pounds. Then I booked ‘I, Tonya’ and had to put it all back on.”

What’s to Be Done About Everyone’s Dry Eyes?
I first reached for that tiny bottle of drops more than two decades ago, around the time I began to hear my own blinks and my eyes started to feel as if they’d been dabbed with cotton balls. Now, just about everyone I know depends on artificial tears.

Cape May has also been a rendezvous point for American woodcock since long before there was a ferry — or a city — at the spot.
