And I'm a native New Yorker.
I have to crack up at some of these articles in a few NY publications. It just shows how isolated some liberal New Yorkers are. I mean give me a break, if they bothered to head 35 miles out of the city into New Jersey or lower New York State, they would see plenty of farms and hear people who don't speak with a New York City dialect.
Its not like these people from outside Houston don't have a satellite dish as big as a car and get 1000 channels. This is not 1960 you know. They probably can also read the Slimes online or surely get the Sunday edition near Houston.
