God...*ahem*...God?  If in the afterlife you have judged me a righteous person deserving of reward, I would like to be a tourist in New York for healthy part of eternity.  Aside from plane issues in which 3 out of 4 of the planes had maintanence issues, it was wonderful.  Okay the hotel had trouble giving us hot water, but they worked on it.  The  hotel was a block off of Times Square.  We saw 2 Broadway shows, Wicked and 9 to 5.  One off Broadway show, Stomp.  Different food styles every night.  Ellis island, where I swear I kept feeling somebody behind me at my shoulder.  Museums, the people.  Granted I stayed on the Manhattan the time.
And the scariest thing you can hear is your cab driver saying "I know short cut, okay."
