  1. Wow,by 1966 I had 5 different jobs .My first was in a place you may have heard of Staten Island .Over the years I worked in every borough .My last job was in 2004 because the company I worked for moved from Brooklyn to NJ and I was no longer able to drive.
  2. I remembered the Maiden Lane building I worked in ,83.Toby at the time worked at 110 William Street.Later on she worked at 2 World Trade Center. Good news that the dryer is fixed.
  3. I have posted on 19 cruise boards,several Brooklyn Nostalgia boards and my HS message board all with different screen names.In 1999 a Brooklyn nostalgia board that still exists and may possibly be the longest running still active board was chosen by a NYC magazine for a story on the Internet and this new thing,a message board.The magazine ‘s Editor contacted the owner of the board and said they would like to do a story about the site and interview the two people who post the most.One was me .The other person and I had many e-mail and phone conversations . I bought 5 copies of the magazine and the Editor sent me 3 copies. I was really excited and much to my surprise there was only one paragraph about the two of us and my last name was spelled wrong.
  4. As a NYC resident nearly 60 years I never stayed at a Manhattan hotel.However ,I have family members who go once a year and stay at the Marriott and go across the street to a theater.
  5. Do you ever eat soft ice cream ?To me there is no such thing as bad ice cream.
  6. Our second best cruise ever was an HAL Alaska cruise in 2008.At that time we had yet to do a RCI cruise.
  7. I prefer hard ice cream but being an ice cream addict either is okay.
  8. The technician surprisingly arrived here at 12:30.He did the winter check up and since it is supposed to be in the mid 70’s the next few days he also checked our AC unit.
  9. Try googling Zuckers in Plainview,NY to find out if they ship to your area .If they do not they should be able to tell you who you can contact.We buy from them in person and the rye bread is delicious.
  10. Our refrigerator repair person is coming November 17.It is still covered under the Warranty and we have a second refrigerator in our garage so that is not a problem for us. Every November we have our heating unit checked out for the winter. Two months ago we made an appointment for Nov.5 expecting temperatures today to be in the 40’s or lower.It is 63 here now and the technician is supposed to arrive between 12 and 5 PM.
  11. Excellent review of the show.As the Phillies will be eliminated tomorrow night they will have plenty of time to get caught up on Walking Dead.
  12. I felt as though I was at a used car dealer.Neither he ,his nurse or anyone working in his office wore masks.Toby and I were the only mask wearers. The doctor somehow cut one of my feet causing it to bleed.He used a paper towel that was covering a chair .I was not aware that my foot had bled until Toby told me when we were in the car .
