If you are a nerd like me you'll find this webpage kinda cool

So I just got back from nyc, which is just about my favorite place on earth. Just a few observations about new york city:

1. Almost everything there is more expensive. Examples: Beer = 5 dollars. Dinner at a somewhat nice resturant = 18 dollars. There is one thing though, that everywhere I went was cheaper. And that is sunglasses. Why everywhere else are sunglasses 200 dollars but in new york, there are literally thousands of people you can buy them from for 5 dollars? (why does that sound like one of the four questions on passover?)
2. Have you noticed that parking in manhattan is like $25 per half hour. If they can charge that much, then that means there are plenty of people out there willing to pay that much! I mean, really folks, who the hell pays that much for parking?! I wish I was friends with these people. They'd probably buy me that $370 lightsaber I've been wanting.
3. New york has the best food in the world. From the italian resturants of little italy, to the venders who sell the suger-roasted penuts on the street, it is really hard to be dissapointed with food in nyc. Also, the pizza there absolutely destroys pizza anywhere else in the universe, no doubt about it.
4. If it werent for the baseball teams in new york I'd probably move there tomorow. I mean the yankess! Common! Whadda bunch of assclowns. At least they suck this year and the O's are AWSOME. Also awsome is my fantasy baseball team, but thats the subject of another blog.
5. Not really new york observatoin, but close enough: why is it, that to get anywhere in new jersey it takes an hour longer than you think it should. I mean, the roads are rediculous and make no sense whatsoever. And what the hell is with the jughandles. Who made up these things. For those not in the know, jughandles are the new jersey way of turning left on a road. In normal states, to turn left you get in the left lane, and well, turn left. Makes sense, right? Well, the fine government of new jersey clearly lacks common sense and decided to make turning left an excercise in rediculousness. In order turn left, you need to get in the right lane, take an exit ramp looking thing, goto the perpindicular street, make a left onto that street, wait at the light, and then go straight through the light! Sound stupid? Of course it does, cuz it is stupid. But then again, I'm stupid too, cuz I went and ate at a white castle in jersey. That place is freakin' disgusting. Don't ever let me eat there again.

Ok, thats all I got for now. Later folks.
