OT: just back from NYC

Hey everyone,

We just got back from New York City, That is one place that you MUST go
on New Years Eve. It's just that you'll never want to go back. But it is
definately an experience!~ NYC was wonderful on New Years Day, except for
Times Square that was still VERY busy, but you could actually drive around
the city. It was a great trip and thats the last I will ever see of NYC!
Nice to be home in my nice QUIET shop!

(Searcher) lies when he says I should go to NYC:

Uh, no, I do NOT went to go to NYC on New Years eve. I "would"
like to go and see a few museums (Metropolitan Museum of Art, Gugenheim,
maybe one or two others), and that would be the only reason I would ever
want to go there. Preferably all in a day. I've gone thru there
several times, and that firmed my belief I'm not a city guy. Sorta like
my feelings about Viet Nam, nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to
live there.

Of course, if it was Ankh-Morpork, that'd be a different story.

I love NYC!!! Spent a week there back in 2000 and thoroughly enjoyed
myself. Contrary to popular belief, New Yorkers were some of the kindest
and friendliest people I've ever met.

You could spend DAYS just in MOMA. The Guggenheim is an easy day's
viewing.

Probably, but my main interest is their Tiffany grips, I'd probably
be willing to pass on the rest. Anyway, I doubt seriously I could
afford to spend much time in NYC.

Anyway, might be dangerous for me. I have a half uncle up there
somewhere, supposedly we look about like twins - but the dangerous part
is, he supposedly works for the mob. If I spent too much time up there,
I might get put to work.

The one after that is Hat Full of Sky - which I got a couple of
weeks ago. Heh heh. I'm about up to speed on the Discworld now, and
several others to boot.

Theres a bit on line too, scroll down.
