Look into hotels in the Long Island City area. The rates are competitive and it's a one stop/10 minute train ride to midtown Manhattan.

I totally agree with you ......we have not flown in 8yrs. We just drive and see the sights on the way to our destination - and we don't have to worry about the hassles of air travel. It saves us $$ ,too.:coolsmiley:

I heard they found a "bloopers" tape in his stash at the compound,too. I wonder if it'll come out on DVD soon. What's next?.........."Terrorists Gone Wild"?

Thank goodness that I can literally walk to work, here in the outer boroughs. It's a nightmare to commute across NYC - particularly from Long Island to New Jersey. When I used to work in Manhattan, it seems there was always a delay on the subways for one reason or another. And on most mornings...

You're correct in concluding that the dog is getting "the lay of the land". Your friend's dog is reading "messages" left behind by all these unfamiliar dogs in the area. It's olfactory overload for the first week or so.

I just sold the worst car I ever owned. 1996 Volkswagen Golf with only 62k miles on it. The "check engine" light was on every month after the first year. The mechanic could never keep it off for more than a few weeks after diagnosing the problem because it was always something else. By the time...

I feel old when I realize it takes a whole lot more work to keep myself in shape as opposed to just a few years ago. True story - my niece and nephew were visiting from out of town last summer (they're both 10yrs.old) and I took them for a drive around town. They were sitting in the back seat...

I like Tom Jones & Elton John myself. I think they stand out as great voices and singers.
