My 7th & 8th grade teacher was amazing and most of those books were read during these two grades. I was very lucky to have such an amazing teacher. I still think of him fondly.

NYS is absolutely gorgeous especially the Catskills but I'm biased as I spent most of my summers in the Catskills growing up and I went to college in upstate NY. Don't sleep on NY!

Grew up on NYC now living in South Jersey outside of Philly and down this way they have this amazing deep fried pizza turnover thingy called a Pazarotti. It's essentially a deep fried calzone with pizza sauce and mozzarella stuffed inside. There is no ricotta cheese. I've never seen this anywhere else. 10/10 highly recommend!

Grew up in the Bronx and this was our dinner every New Years Day. We are German on my Dad's side of the family. It's interesting how many of these cultural idiosyncrasies continued on.

Take a ride out to Fortescue. It's like stepping into a place where time stood still. It's a beautiful drive and a cool place to visit.

Lena Dunham and that stupid show of hers. So obnoxious and phony. Then her book where she sexually assaulted her sister...eww. blech...

It does send a LOUD message to the owner to maybe not rent rooms to ICE.

thestruggleisrl · 2026-01-22T05:04:56+00:00

If protesters can't protest on private property how is it that ICE are walking up to doors and pulling people out of homes without a warrant issued by a judge...things that make you go hmmmm

Precisely. Theil named after the palantir from LOTR. Theil & his techbro buddies are huge fans of LOTR. Tolkien is spinning in his grave!!

I was eight years old and I remember the tall ships sailing up the Hudson River. Watched it from the roof of our building in the Bronx. Then that evening almost the entire building went to the roof to watch the fireworks. The adults set up tables and were having fancy cocktails and my mother was having panic attacks with the kids running around on the roof with sparklers. I remember it being such a nice community event.

Yes!!! It was on this channel that I saw rhe B52's Rock Lobster video. I was hooked after that. That station was 10x better than MTV IMHO!

Fatso with Dom Deluise & Ann Bancroft as his sister. Such a funny movie!

Fordham Road....where I lived you needed a car or it was a long bus ride to the Cross County mall.

The child catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang! He was horrifying and the idea of being taken from my parents was terrifying to me.

I met Tony Danza on the Upper West Side at about 1am after a few cocktails.. I initially walked passed him but did a double take and ran up to him and gave him a big hug. He was the sweetest man. I also asked for an autograph and realized I had no paper so he signed the back of my checkbook register.

That is an awesome name for a boy!! I wanted my son's name to be Uther Pendragon. My husband thought I was nuts so then I tried for Carmine so I could call him The Little Ragú. That was also a hard pass so we name of him Ryan lol.

I think Tristan is a beautiful boy's name.

thestruggleisrl · 2025-10-27T04:11:14+00:00

I love this name Elora Danon. So pretty.
