All we need now are palm trees and warm breezes.

This is hilarious.

The islands in question here are not your typical islands my friend. No exotic birds or species. Not much in the way of swimming. No palm trees (aww, darnit!). It's kind of like the mainland but denser.

But yeah, I think we all would be a little less mind fvvked if we made a pilgrimage to the mainland now and again.

I've heard people who live on the island that they call Manhattan don't like to leave that island though

We need a password or VIP lounge section reserved for only NYC people. Obviously the "guest list" is just too broad and or the doorman is being a bit to liberal with lifting the ropes.


*LOL*

There is a place called "Mother's Pub", on Forrest Avenue. In the back of the back courtyard of this bar, there is a sandbox with a volley ball net running down the middle. One time me and my whole crew, we went there for St. Patrick's Day Parade. Somebody shouted out "Ha! This is their Tiki Bar! This is their Surf Club! (Referring to the two establishments at the Jersey Shore).

A massive fight that I was probably involved in broke out over this comment. "Hey punk, what're you trying to say about Staten Island?"

It was great.
