The funny thing about this article is that everybody in New York lies through their teeth whenever they say how long it takes them to get anywhere. If a New Yorker says he gets to work in 31 minutes, rest assured that the commute takes at least an hour. My family has made a joke about how long it takes to get from Jersey to Westchester. Somebody walks in the door, and the first question, even before "How are you?" is "How was the traffic?" We always say that it only took 15 minutes to go 45 miles, and laugh. Usually it's close to two hours, but what's the use of whining about that?

Rest assured, I was being accurate about my commute. If I get a job in Manhattan afer graduation, I am most definately moving there or Brooklyn Heights.
