She's funny, and a good writer, too. It's been getting some play recently. I used to drive in Manhattan, so it has exceptional signifigance to me.

Enjoy!

Gorram Ohio drivers! My wife and I are headed to NYC and we'll... be... driving. I drove last year in April and kissed the ground and hugged my wife when we got to the hotel. "Never a-freaking-gain!" so we're gonna drive again this year :)

Once we get there it's pretty much a lot of cabs (we walk a lot, but some places are just too far and it's vacation afterall). We have learned some great new "phrases of greeting" and "deeply personal suggestions," that cabbies will share freely with just about anyone who comes within earshot. They are a generous bunch!

So do you know what those drivers are saying in hushed voices into their cell phones late at night... not in English??

Isn't she great?
She says it like it is, and she's spot on in every way.
And if you know NYC (like I do) it's even more fun.
