Hell I cant even get a decent Bagel here in the morning, forget about a
bagali !
I have to drive 12 friggan miles to Maspeth Queens.
The corporations and landlords killed off all the "Mom and Pops"
$8200 a year property + school tax for 1 acre, cell phone soccer mom in a
Hummer almost ran me over yesterday
.....Hell Im ready to move to Columbia SC or to Culebra and grow bananas.
If it wasn't for Mouser Electronics Id go mad

A Greyhound to a hick town (like Columbia) in South Carolina might be
cheaper still :-) In that real world they may not even charge ya! I
can get a quart of nice computer matched enamel paint here in little
Vieques cheaper than they sell the Gringo name brand shelf stuff,
usually $20 or less. Go figure. Of course they can't do the aerosols
here.

Thanks for the reminder of why I don't choose to live in NYC even though
its ALL available there. If I want a bagel at 3 AM here I'm surely SOL
but wouldn't pay 5 bucks even if such was available.
