I remember a dangerous, crime-ridden NYC, where garbage bags turned into skyscrapers.

NYC, you deserve this. I'm going to enjoy watching it.

Oh, so you were there in the 70s too! Remember the coffins piled up during the gravediggers strike? yup. NY

I am going to enjoy them squawking for help while I get myself a cup of coffee, or maybe a glass of wine.

Sink, NY, you voted in the policies and policy makers to do it.

Me too, but there's an entire generation of Americans now who have no idea what New York of the Koch/Dinkins era was like. Many of them have probably never even seen "The Warriors".

I think most people are cursed to have to learn the tough lessons of reality the hard way.

As a kid, my dad wouldn’t bring me to a Yankees game because NYC was a crime ridden hell hole.

F$&$ NYC.

And the whole damn east coast trying to run all our lives

My advice. Move the hell away. And fast

The winter alone should convince you

Nuff sed.
