Flyguy, what's up with the NYC question? C'mon, you don't go for that stereotypical crap I hope! You're probably WAY too wise for that! As a FF I'm sure you've had the opportunity to meet rude (as well as nice) people all over the world.

BTW- hulagirl- I have a sister living in the HNL suburbs, Kapolei. She's oringinally from NY! Sadly, she too is often an abusee, since she is just so nice and pleasant to everyone no matter how much grief they give her.
