Stranger in a strange land

Big Apple cred: I occasionally worked in North Jersey and Midtown in the 1980's and 1990's, and even took the subway to a night game in the Bronx once (once is enough, right?). Used to take the Ben Franklin out of 30th Street at 7:30 (remember when trains had names?) and sometimes would beat my coworkers from Flushing to the office at ESB. Afternoon Congo had me back by dinner time.

 

That said, I am a Philly boy who actually loves NYC, for the simple reason that if there was no NYC, all those Gotham crazies would probably live here!

 

Oh yeah, my father worked at Budd Red Lion, birthplace of the many stainless steel beauties still plying the rails.
