A la Montauk

Today, Ben Levine, Zoe Bowick, Kerri Podlas and myself set off on a vast journey, to explore the unknown land that lies east of New York City. Now the three people listed above (not including me) have lived in NYC for the past 3 years or so and haven't really had too much time spent in Long Island and since I was only living there 2 months and had a car I thought I would give them the tour of the island. So we took off from Park Slope and on the Long Island Expressway I was sideswiped by a NYC taxi dude that just gave me the wave and said sorry charlie, so I followed him and hopefully the situation will rectify itself. Continuing on we made it to the famous lighthouse, build by George Washington himself. It was a great drive and a lot of fun to be spending it with such good friends. We then went to Sag Harbor, got some food in some random small town and drove and drove and drove. Southamptom was also very cool. On the way back we stopped and walked on the beach were I got soaked up to the knees on a crazy vindictive wave sent from G-D (why-o, why-o, why-o). So wearing clothes that have been in my car for who knows how long we kept on moving. I dropped Ben and Zoe off without any issues and then off to Manhattan where it contains the largest population of people who drive yet have no knowledge of this activity. And, I think I would of been killed at least 3 to 4 times if it wasn't for my Jedi reflexes and BUNS of steel. Then back to Far Far Far Rockaway to sleep and enjoy another week of Being Knee deep in GYN.

Rally Time

So this weekend on a whirlwind day adventure to Washington DC. I was able to see DC's Chinatown (I didn't know it even existed), a police motorcycle motorcade which lasted for about a half an hour, a high school marching band that went all over the city and last but not least was the rally I went to town for.
Free Muslims against Terrorism. Great idea, but it wasn't the turn out they were hoping for. Alot of good speakers, some outing others; just a great experience to be able to witness.
