Welcome to New York City

[Uptown]

Hello to all far and near. This is Uptown from NY, just wanted to say to all the heads in NY...STAND UP! Great site and hope to talk to more of ya! Anybody out there remember when Sheep Meadow was drug central? I went to school on Central Park West so, growing up, the Meadow was an integral spot for a young explorer. I saw Tompkins Sq Park mentioned but TSP was always a shithole, as far as the quality of people, not to take anything away from the real hedz but, it's all filth! At least the in the Meadow you had a serene, for NY that is, setting in which to do your thing.

Thanks all! Haha yes I AM thankful I don't live in the bible belt, or anywhere else where the mentality is something along the lines of "Gee whiz George Dubya now THAt is my kinda president doin so much for our here country, killing all those A-rabs YEE HAWW!" Ok, rednecks are everywhere, even in abundance in NEW YORK STATE, but yes NYC is a great place to grow up and live. What DOEs suck is the NYC of today is waaaaaay different from the good ol NYC I grew up in. Believe it or not, Manhattan and even Brooklyn are starting to look and feel like SUBURBIA! Yes, it's true, hard as FUCK to believe but it is so. Neighborhoods that once had charachter and DRUGs( hahahaha ) and were chill are not populated by fucking yuppies and soccer moms and people who could give a good fuck about the history oif the 'hood they are living in. well, i don't want to turn this in to a rant so...Yes I'm a proud Noo Yawker but I also love traveling, it is so true you can live in NYC but STILL get bored. Non New Yorkers think I'm nuts when i say that buttttt hey, tis true. So...where is everybody from? ANY New yorkers at all, even you hated Jersey, CT, Westchester and Long Island peoples? Well, besides my NY my fav place is San Fran by far! Never been to L.A. but don't have the desire too, smog is not my thing i rather inhale N20!!

ahhh you got a Tony picture huh? A great benefit of living here= I saw Christopher aka Micheal Imperioli today, walked right by him, on the set of "Law and Order:SVU." Even I was like wow cuz although I've lived here all my life, i rarely get to see celebs like that. but ANYBODY from SOPRANOS is a bonus!
