and if that is all you ever encountered then the only thing you did here was
to be a tourist in all the tourist places or simply have not understood nyc
yeah-welcome to nyc
you haven't been here yet.


There is not enough money in the world to get me to live long-term in
Noo Yawk Sitty. OTOH I have stayed there a few months at a time on
several occasions, working and playing tourist.


oh yeah: we don't lynch people here.


Really?

Last time I looked, there were bigger skinhead groups in the major metro
areas (definitely including NYC which has several KKK chapters) than in
rural areas.

its ok: stay "down" the if you don't like the city, we don't need ya.


Last time I was there, I noticed a tremendous lack of productive
farmland in downtown Noo Yawk. What do ya'll eat that isn't brought in
from elsewhere? And where does your drinking water come from?

"Its easy to understand why the cat has eclipsed the dog as modern
America's favorite pet. People like pets to possess the same qualities
they do. Cats are irresponsible and recognize no authority, yet are
completely dependent on others for their material needs. Cats cannot be
made to do anything useful. Cats are mean for the fun of it."
--P. J. O'Rourke

OTOH it seems that a lot of New Yorkers have pulled their heads out of
their orifices and noticed that there is something worthwhile about the
rest of the world, and the people too. They seem to be making an
impression, too.

I don't see any fun in that.

Makes beer and squirty cheese seem high-brow by comparison.

When I was 10 (a million years ago) we drove to Florida in the days before
e-ways and had car trouble in GA....we couldn't get anyone to fix the car
until after the lynching...was the entertainment of the week....we were
appalled....that was in 1962.....

That's one of the things that has changed for the better.

When I was a kid there were segregated restrooms and water fountains...
seperate but not hardly equal.

I don't think it's necessarily a Southern thing though. When I visited
cousins up North in the same era many kids gathered rocks in the school
parking lot of the bus ride home, to throw out the school bus windows at
black people or their cars. They thought it was funny.

Sorry to make such a downer poste. I'm going to browse some sailing
websites to cheer up.

You'll no doubt be happy to know I just drove through Lousiana, Alabama,
Mississippi, Florida, Georgia and now S. Carolina with nary a single
lynching. Although I would cheerfully nominate Perkins Restaurants for the
dishonor and tie the know myself.

.......of course there's still N.Carolina and Virginia yet to go ...

Denny's....I'll take a Waffle House anyday...

I have to go with Cracker Barrel when I'm down South. We were in South
Carolina a few weeks ago and had a great breakfast at CB. They had real
Vermont syrup. God bless America.

We have Cracker Barrels in Michigan...but we have real Michigan maple syrup
which isn't distilled acid rain like Vermont's....
