I have a neighbor across the street and in nineteen years I had two waves. I try to be friendly but it is very different living then in the East. Actually, I had two very close friends that I met when I first moved down here and they were both from Long Island. They could not take living down here and when their husbands refused to move back East they both left their husbands,took the kids and moved back to NY.

That's funny, Ann1, because I, too, moved to Houston from Long Island, and can't wait to get back to New York. I can't seem to take the heat, and I miss the conveniences of living in NY. My youngest son, however, loves it here and will stay.

This started on page 18 when we began talking about neighbors not coming out of their homes. We were talking about how we all knew our neighbors in the "old days" versus how people just sit in and watch their televisions today. We weren't talking about the great TV shows but the fact of the matter is years ago most people knew their neighbors and I commented where I live no one knows their neighbors. A blast from the past is that I use to know my neighbors.

Sorry. I guess that this is such a long-running post that I did not recall that part. That's why I left it in, though.

Hey wait a minute, how could we forget the The Clay Cole Show on WPIX? Chuck McCann was also on that show.
