I tend to agree with you re: NY. However, if you take it in small doses and see specific things...you might enjoy. | Tugboatguy Sun Nov 27, 2005 10:39 UTC
HI Pete, Your short trip to NYC enough to give you an accurate take on the place, I assure you. Even little old ladies will bump you right into the street if you don't mind your walking. Conditions are crowded! Doug (^_^) |
