  1. I have lived in NYC and it’s suburbs my entire life.Friends of mine relocated to a Houston Suburb .I went to visit them 20 years ago. The people who I encountered on my visit and subsequent visit were a lot friendlier than the majority of New Yorkers .I never cruised out of Galveston but my friend have and prefer those cruises.
  2. I never had a kindle.To me there is nothing better than an actual book.
  3. I never heard of Salt & Straw
  4. I assume you are familiar with the East Bay Express.Many years ago they did a story on the house that a friend of mine lived in as the most unusual house because of the views from the windows as well as the landscaping.
  5. The most interesting ice cream I ever had was a Kitchen Sink at a Jahn’s Ice Cream Parlor in NY.
  6. I saw the original production in Vermont in 2006.It was excellent. My wife and I saw theatrical productions all over the US and Canada between 1973 and 2018.
  7. When I was in Elementary School in the 1940’s we made Easter baskets and colored eggs to put in the basket. In the 50’s there were wonderful Easter Parades in the area I lived in.
  8. We have always had wonderful TA’s .One TA gave gifts for each cruise booked .The gifts grew in value .For our first cruise we were given a canvas bag .For our fifth cruise good quality binoculars. Later that year she got married.Her husband convinced her to stop giving gifts.
  9. Everything in our condo complex is supposed to be the same color yet many of the homes are different.
  10. The condo that I live in will fine a resident $750.00 if the color of their deck and or terrace is not a dark brown.
  11. Like they do it in the movies is an Off Broadway show that will close in two days but if anyone is in NY this weekend and looking for an interesting evening This play starring Laurence Fishburne is my suggestion.
  12. I recommend Allstate Car Service.They are located in Brooklyn not too far from the cruise port.
  13. Not the same because Charlie not being able to walk up and down will not be long lasting but when I had this problem I bought a stairlift in 2017.Most companies give discounts to Veterans and there is a company owned by Veterans.
  14. The best line I have read in my 16 years of being on CC
  15. I posted this a few years ago but it bears repeating .Approximately 15 years ago I was at a wedding where one of the guests was the lead singer of Duran,Duran-Simon LeBan.We were told not to approach him .I was at the bar and he came up to me and said he could not understand why nobody was talking to him.I explained what we were told by the Groom.He laughed and we had an interesting conversation.
  16. I just watched the Documentary Studio 54 on Netflix ,If anyone was ever there or desired to go there you might want to check it out.
  17. She thought she was secure.I also like Amazing Race better because of the places they travel to .Many that I hoped to visit .However,I never had a desire to go to Columbia.
  18. His wife’s first husband Gordon Tucker was the Rabbi of a NY synagogue where many of my relatives are members.
