RT@achewood Would The Pet Shop Boys be nice to have over for Thanksgiving, or would they be a pain in the ass? It's really hard to tell.

Everyone's your friend in New York City
« on: May 05, 2005, 07:45:25 pm »
I'm heading out to NYC next week for a wedding.  My girl has most of the trip mapped out for us, but there will be a 4-8 hour period where she will be shopping and I will be able to entertain myself.  

Anybody have suggestions for what to do with that time?  I'm just happy that I'll happen to be in town for MC Frontalot's show.  Anything on top of that is just a bonus.

They've cleared all the fun stuff out of Times Square, so I'm out of options.

The Yankees are in town early in the week, the Mets on the weekend.

Sadly, the Brooklyn Cyclones don't start their season until June.

My friends call me the Mayor.
My enemies don't call me anything.  'Cuz they're all dead.

My favorite thing in NYC is the American Museum of Natural History.  I spent a lot of time there when I lived in Manhattan (birth - 12 years old).  There's a life-sized model of a blue whale suspended from the ceiling of The Hall of giraffees.  Extremely rad.

Just take the 6 train to Astor Place and start walking in a southwesterly direction.

Extra points of radness for including the TMBG song lyrics in your thread title. I have never been to the Big Apple, so I'd like to hear about your trip.

Nothing says "I'm living outside of my surrounding popular culture" when I have to Google "Ross Geller" only to find he's a character on one of the highest rated sitcoms of all time.

Hey cool!  Bex has most of our time mapped out, but I know that we'll be at the MC Frontalot show at The Slipper Room at 10:00 on Wednesday.  (You're a student, right?  What is your drinking-age status?)  Then I have my block of free time on Thursday during the day.  I'll PM you some contact info, maybe you can suggest something for Lunch on Thursday.
