I arrived in New York City today. So far, it's a pretty cool place. A little intimidating, but cool. Across the street is a pit bull locked behind a gate. I went outside earlier to go for a walk and saw this lady rubbing her ass in the dogs face. Suddenly she decided that she wanted to piss on the dog. Down went the pants and out came the pee.
I'll have pictures of the area when I get comfortable enough to take them.
I went to the Frederick Douglass in Southeast DC a few months ago and realized that I was the only white person. At the risk of sounding like a racist, that's a little scary. It's not the black people, it's the fact that when any one ethnicity (other than white folks) are concentrated in one area it tends to be a poor, crime prone area. Harlem isn't that bad, but it's pretty damn close.
There's a difference between nice/urban and nice/suburban. A row of shops that we would consider trash in Scotts Valley are welcome signs of economic prosperity here.
