“I think you are planning to live to ripe old age – to spend all your $$$ and make sure some greedy relative doesn’t inherit it. In other words, out of spite.”
I realize the mind is the first thing to go, Pete, but you’re confusing donaTELla or me (not sure who was the object of that post) with what YOU’RE doing out of spite.
11217, McKenzie’s performance on the HOTD thread was topped by his/her rendition of “I’m going to tear this old town down” in the BOTD thread from yesterday:
“Most of Brooklyn has been redlined and neglected for generations, most of the Borough is a pathetic hodgepodge.
However there are nice areas like Park Slope and Brooklyn Heights that were teetering on the edge thirty years ago but managed to pull themselves out of the brink just in the nick of time.
I believe there is no hope for Bushwick, and I am very dubious about most of Bed Stuy. The building stock is antiquated and full of lead and completely ill-suited for normal, non-affluent, family life. It needs to be razed and replaced with new, hygienic housing with parking and nice bathrooms and elevators and concrete floors and fireproof roofs, the stuff poor people value. Let the rich spend fortunes on their copper details and carved angels and stained glass windows. Most people in Brooklyn are just barely surviving.”
Yeah, right. So glad he/she is NOT in charge of anything.
I don’t do midtown
[Psst, donaTELla, if you want to stay young, DO NOT say ‘dearie’!]
ok babe.
DH?! DH?! Anyone seen DH? If anyone SEES DH, please ask him to respond to my 10:37am post for restaurants.
DH! Doesn’t have to be midtown. I’ll take my friend to any ‘hood for a good restaurant.
must have been for Donatella. They mentioned you with the
“holiday variant”.
So BTW, how’s the peeping tom and canal sniffing going?

“That’s what I meant, dearie.”

“Just check train schedule for holiday variants.” — I don’t think they allow variants to ride the train. You have to show ticket b4 boarding.
good point Arkady; I will plan the whole thing out for minimum hassle.
