    You know there actually is a rock climbing place in queens now. It's called Brooklyn boulders. No, I'm not joking.

    Well you people in NYC only chase the rats.
    In Philly, they chase them, cook them, and serve them at Pat's and Geno's.

    Visit St. Paul's Chapel right by the WTC site. A real piece of early NYC history - I loved it. There is this incredible little graveyard that goes back to the 1600s, and it survived 9/11 when it really shouldn't have.
    With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy. ~ Desiderata
