Is it wrong to have loved Elizabeth?
it was 1995. I was a single white female of 21 years of age from the Houston suburbs when the airline business landed me in Elizabeth, NJ. I immediately moved into a place right in the heart of Elizabeth. Granted I was young and naive, but I would often walk around, or to the train with only one other person and NEVER felt scared or threatened. In fact, Elizabeth brings back very fond memories! Is this wrong? I mean since leaving many years ago I have heard many a horror story about the city, yet I can't believe I didn't encounter any of the goings on that I hear about (with the exception of the occassional gunshots & a LOT of prostitutes whom never bothered me once). Was I lucky? People were very friendly and I wouldn't hesitate to walk around the city today.
PS. I still get excited every time I watch the Sopranos and they drive by the Elizabeth exit sign in the opening credits!!

Is it wrong to love Elizabeth? Depends if she loves you back. That old gag.

Dang, I KNEW I should have put "single, white, 21 year old, STRAIGHT girl from the Houston burbs". But then I guess that wouldn't be as much fun now, would it. |
