Tony here from NY

[AirMoore]

Was reading your post and all the follow up posts.... funny how when we announce ourselves from NY most immediately think of NYC.... welcome from a fellow "upstater" where our tax dollars go to support "the city." JK all you NYC'ers...

I always get a kick (read: no kick at all) out of that too:

Person: "So... where are you from?"
Me: "New York."
Person: "Oh! I've never been to New York City!"
Me: "No I live in upstate, the place with exponentially more land area, as well as the much higher population." (AKA: Statistically where I am more likely to be from when I say NY.)
Person: "*dumbfounded*"



Welcome aboard, Tony!
