OMG, NYC is going to be a mess.
My wife’s father—at age 62, two bad knees and all—hooked up with a friend who does electrical contracting, drove from North Carolina yesterday, and is currently sitting in a hotel somewhere on Long Island riding Sandy out in the hopes of making some money doing electrical or carpenter cleanup work post-storm. Where some see disaster, others see opportunity. He called about 30 minutes ago, cellphone connection was bad but he said things were OK where he was, no major issues.
