I think there are like 8,000,000 people. It's going to be a large thread. :lol:

I live at 88th & 1st. Boring neighborhood. That's the way I like it.

I have a daughter in Dental School at NYU but she is a Texas Tech undergrad. She does feel our pain though.

I'm in South Florida, but judging by most of my neighbor's license plates, I'd think I was in New York.

KnuckleStang - sorry you can't live in that great of a neighborhood since Raplh lives right near you - he brings property values down wherever he goes. You can find him hanging out at the Papaya King.

Most of my friends from SMU now live in NYC. Of course they were all theatre majors, and thus don't follow the 'Stangs.

Papaya King is pure greatness. I eat there at least once a week. Hey wait a second, is raplh that guy with the gray beard who always sits on a milk crate on the 86th St. side? Hell, if I'd have known that, I would have been nicer to him all this time.

Thad -- I was a theatre major and I pay attention to the stangs. What's your friends problem?

Well, try as I might have, even the theatre majors who liked football wouldn't go to games with me. Though, I was sneaky, I got two of them to go when I cast them in a film and shot a scene at an SMU football game. We won, they had a great time... they never went to another game. (That was a game in our last year at the cotton bowl... I just walked in with film equipment, asked no one for permission, and just started shooting. It was awesome.)

I know probably fifteen to twenty SMUT grads (SMU Theatre) up there, and I'd have to say, not only would they not go to an SMU game - if SMU played at Rutgers - they wouldn't even be aware that it was happening. Other then, of course, my letting them know that I would be visiting for that very reason.

In all honesty, now that I think about it, it's not them with the problem. It's us.

If you want good BBQ in Manhattan, I would suggest either Virgil's in Midtown (152 W 44th) or Blue Smoke near Irving Park (116 E 27th).

I lived in the Murray Hill neighborhood of Manhattan for about a year (3rd Ave and 37th), but I'm back in Dallas now.

My old SMU roommate and his wife live by Gramercy Park (Lexington and 21st).
