Hate to say, but I don't really think you have much room to talk...

I heard about it. That's crazy.

Being from NYC, the city is still paranoid after 911. At first, locally, rumors were of another attack, collapsing building, etc. Thankfully that was not the case. Non-the-less, it could have been worse.....

is not hate "god"

i just point out that she cant speak any good english that all "there are what many difference people all over the world" that i cannot understand because of there accent !

stop making this a race descmination

there is this one tv station i hate with a passion

It was good before the president WCBS2 in new york fired a good tv programming director and hired a young tv programming director "fired everyone" and replace with the tv studio reporter with these

"idiot"
"mindless zombiz"
paranoia machines"
george bush loving"

reporter that does the news "dont get me wrong but i taking about the reporter that "OVERHYPE" everthing and fear us that another WWIII is coming out way

there are still reported i like but "not the one kiss cbs you know what"

I understand that you were unable to understand the woman, but I can hardly understand anything you have typed in the last 2 posts. I'm not trying to be a jerk but practice what you preach. Grammar is a part of the English language too.

I could hardly make sense of the posts either. You really ought to get better at your own English before saying that others' is bad.

Why do they pipe steam around? New York isn't steam-driven, is it?

BBC said:

Millions of pounds of steam are pumped beneath the streets of New York to help heat and cool thousands of buildings.

The pipe's apparently 83 years old. :/

Hello....kettle???

This is about the most hypocritical statement I have ever seen. You have some nerve making fun of someone else's grasp on the English language when you obviously have let it slip through your own fingers.

^^^ or maybe never had a firm grip to begin with?!

Eh, I think the point has been made to Rigs (though I agree with the irony).

That steam pipe has been a little while back now hasn't it? Something exploded over here near Dallas, TX just recently. I was across the county making a delivery with my friend. I was probably 15-20 miles away and it was a thunderous boom. At first I thought it was a storm rolling in, then I thought I hit something, and then I could see an ominous cloud of black smoke in the distance. I believe my initial thought was "aw, no". Turns out the only route to my destination was around that area and it was blocked off and traffic diverted for miles and miles and miles all day long.
