Anybody here from NY?
 
I'm headed out that way in next month or two and wanted to see if anyone there to hook up for a drink :)

Jim 2005-03-07 07:02 PM

Would that be New York City?

Greenguy 2005-03-07 07:39 PM

Yeah, the state of New York is kinda big :D

funbrunette 2005-03-07 07:45 PM

Got some friends in Brooklyn! |headbang|

Jim 2005-03-07 07:45 PM

A lot of people that don't live in NYS think the city is close to everyone :) I once had a company buy me a plane ticket for an interview. They made the reservation for NYC. I had to tell them it would take me longer to get to the airport than to fly out of the country :)

I'm another Upstater like Jim and Greenguy. I'm 3-4 hours away from the smelly apple. Outside of military service and brief employment in Japan, I have lived in New York state all of my life, but I've spent more time in Montreal than in NYC. NYC sucks. It's full of New Yorkers.

Greenguy 2005-03-08 07:42 AM

Actually, NYC is full of people like Tommy :D

Tommy 2005-03-08 11:03 AM

washing machines on the lawn and cows

Yell 2005-03-08 11:15 AM

Tommy 2005-03-08 11:57 AM

Chop...... drive around up there and you would think you were in missippi

Yell, people travel from all over the world to see NYC, I am shocked at you

Yell 2005-03-08 12:03 PM

My county is Blue. Jim's, on the other hand, is rather Red :D

Tommy 2005-03-08 05:48 PM

although in fairness upstate does have a lot to offer

a couple times a week I think to myself I should have moved upstate

urb 2005-03-09 09:31 AM

I have cousins in Syracuse.
Never been there... what is Syracuse like?

Thumbler 2005-03-09 09:32 AM

Forgive my ignorance - but what exactly is 'upstate' ?

Greenguy 2005-03-09 09:42 AM

"upstate" is anything above New York City & a term that people in NYC use. Jim lives in Central New York & I live in Western New York. I can't stand it when they refer to Buffalo as "upstate" |banghead|

HC-Majick 2005-03-09 09:46 AM

maybe i should change my location to the southern tier of ny....lol

A couple of times a week I think I should move to Florida.

I guess I'm "upstate" too..One the border of Rockland/Orange counties about 40 minutes from westchester..
is westchester "upstate" too??
And yes, we have a pick-up truck..no gun rack tho..a laptop rack for wardriving..
And we also have a Jeep..perfect for sneaking up on them thar cows for some cow-tippping fun.

To me, "upstate" stops a couple miles west of Albany :D
