The early start to our fall has left me feeling a bit like My Cousin Vinny. I grabbed a big slice at Gino’s Pizza in Long Beach. Drank gallons of coffee at Bagel Cafe. Had a few close calls with the wacky City drivers (Where’d you get your driver’s license? A cereal box?! Ehh?) and out of control yellow cabs. On top of that, pigeons everywhere I looked. I was even written an email by the “Washington Krew” telling me how it is, tough guy talk, via E-Mail. And I quote,

“The “Washington Krew” want youse

in Joisy to know we aint happy about

you being so specific about the street in

LB… Better register your cars in NY cause

the Jersey plates really stand out”

Listen Buddy, haven’t you ever heard of proper grammar? I’m not sure if “you’se” is even a real contraction! Aaaay fuhgetaboutit. (see referenced spot burn here: http://vimeo.com/7110342)

All that aside, New York City gets really fun and has a lot of what we don’t here in The Garden State: lefts! Last month I spent the better part of a 3 day weekend either driving to/from NYC, shooting in NYC, or editing photos and video from NYC. Some of which can be seen at SurferMag.com

Steer the reigns toward another long weekend in New York, because the winds are looking pretty iffy for New J-e-r-s-e-y. So much better than being skunked in the home state. Watch out for those sneaky right-handers up there too.
