Why not? Everybody else does.

My favorite place in NYC is the Morgan Library, 36th and Madison.

Because I don't like bumping into random people who suddenly stop short in middle of the sidewalk to stare up yet another tall building.

If you are driving - be very wary over your parking meter. The meter maids are tenacious!

No other city like it... I don't like it though - too crowded.

Flatoel in Manhattan, west52nd st , great place !

the continental breakfast was nice here, cereal,granola, juice, bagels,crossaints, muffins, fruit !

We hiked over to the View and were whisked right in due to being on the vip list, we sat in the second row. Rosie was a freaking riot as was Joan ! Dr Phil was on and Lionel Richie sang ! :cheer7:

and we got goodies !!! 2 books, a cool messenger bag that has "The View embrodried on it
and Lionel's new cd !!

Bush is in town so it's crowded and crazy here, black suits everywhere, NYC PD everywhere too. We rode in a bicycle taxi to the Empire state building

will be having dinner and seeing lionel this evening, all in all a memorable trip !

We hiked up5th ave, went to Times square bought stuff !

NYC is only an hour from me, it rocks.

Sucks for people who have never been there.

G'damn... I had to drive my semi-disabled grandfather out to LaFayette St for his lawyer appt... so after dropping him off I had to find a place to dump the car. Drove around for 30 minutes, no metered parking available anywhere - all ~10 spots were taken... I wasn't paying $20 for 30 minutes at a garage and still have to walk 7 blocks either. Wounded up down on Water St. / Battery Park / Ground Zero... and still couldn't find parking. I got a call that he was done but I couldn't find my way back up through all the buildings they put in the way of streets... took another 30 minutes to get back to him because of all the stop lights in addition.

G'damn... I hate the city. Great for tourists, sucks for people who need to drive thru. Not to mention traffic. I spent 4.5 hours in a car roundtrip that morning... and I only live 45 minutes away.

You must have been one of those tourists that I pushed and shoved during lunch.
So you were the lady who bumped into me and fell on her ass. Sorry about not helping you up but I didn't want to catch what you had. That's one nasy rash you have.

hahaha. Well, it does take a huge lady to knock me off my ass. I should have known not to mess with a 400lb gorilla. next time, i'll leave you alone.
