You have a pretty hot wife, but she looks way overdressed compared to the other people on the street. _________________ "You have to quote from books to look clever. You can't quote from films. If you quote from films you just look like a geek." |

I have to admit, all the pictures look really great and make the city look damn clean... especially that subway and station picture...
What gives?! Is this really the same New York I live in?! haha |

I see a mini basketball and what's either a mango or a football down in those tracks...
Really now, why are people so inconsiderate when it comes to tossing out their garbage on the platforms? |

Gosh, not a DUMPSTER. Just a regular ole orange trash bin on the corner of Woodhaven and Jamaica where you can catch the Q56.

Being there every day, I can tell you it's NEVER that uncrowded.
Then again, I'm by the side near the Cinnabon. |

'Tis true, but you can still buy a slice for $1.50 down the block. Or at least I still think you can. =(
There's no such thing as slices here. What the hell am I gonna do with a WHOLE pizza? Not I actually have to socialize and invite people over to eat the rest before it rots in my fridge.
Incredible pictures guys. Love them. _________________ Thank you for flying Church of England. Cake or Death?

Yes, the pictures are good. A true insight into New York living.
I can eat an entire large pizza on my own. I've done it. Sitting at home, nothing better to do, so i order pizza and sit down to see rush hour. _________________

Typical cost of a slice in Manhattan now is about $2.25 plain. With topping around $4.
Out in queens theres still a few places to get the $4 special, which is 2 slices and a soda

$1.75 for one topping? That just doesn't seem right. _________________ Context is everything. |

| Depends on the topping. Pepperoni or meatball (or what qualifies as meatball) is cheaper than chicken. |

there's also the even more expensive toppings like tomato chunks, basil leaves, and that white cheese. I forget what it is, ricotta? goat cheese? anyway my friend has bought a slice that cost $4.65
I usually get the chicken roll thats around $3.50, much more filling. or Jamaican beef patty, those are yummy.
I've found that Greek places make pretty good pizza. They use better mozzarella that isn't as greasy.
didja kno there's a trapeze school on the west side highway? tribecca area.
