there was no interest, even REMOTE, in attempting to be helpful in any way. when we were on the steps of st patricks, a lady was asking me where something was, and i stood there and took the time to explain it to her. my family was laughing at me being the one to do it, but i said, well for heaven’s sake not another soul would bother to tell her, at least i told her what i could!

we didn’t go in via a tunnel, we went over GW bridge and exited via the Holland Tunnel to go home. We spent the night at a doubletree hotel in Ft Lee. even though they wouldn’t permit the dogs to stay in the hotel, it had a covered garage and they at least had some grass to pee on. we were chatting with the waiter, a guy named FRANK, he was a dago, at dinner there and asking him questions etc about parking in the city etc. I mentioned something about the dogs not being allowed and he said, why didn’t you bring them in anyway, say it was medical. We roared! i said yeah, seeing eye cavaliers, that’s the ticket!

That’s the problem with the city. No Southerners to be polite and helpful.

i will talk to anyone anywhere. and it was only in retrospect that i realized that they were taken aback that i even approached them with a question in the first place, there was definitely a sense of ARE YOU TALKING TO ME? LOL!

What's the opposite of bowdlerize? That's what these derps are attempting to do.

Okay cat people, can your cat do this? Mine cannot, he is merely a pointer and can barely slaughter rogue insects.

Isn’t it funny how people up there know where they live by their exits?

That’s a word I’ve never seen before. Shouldn’t that be spelled bawdlerize. The removal of bawdy words....;)

xs fam thought it was stupid that you can’t pump your own gas and cannot make a LEFT turn. Gas was dang cheap there too. i drove home from exit 3 rest stop. xshub got down from the driving-martyr cross [loved that way of putting it, SG!] i was sleepy, but i cannot SLEEP if i look over and see his eyes closing while he’s behind the wheel, so it’s the worst possible situation. he fought me, but then slept til we got stuck in traffic on the beltway.

Like Kyrgyszstan. Plus they now have Ukraine back in their sphere of influence.

Of course we are going to need to make peace with the expansionist Bear because we have no money left nor any real national interest in stopping it.
