The Beer Garden

by

I went to the last Beer Garden in NYC yesterday. John, Zee, Dave, a friend of Johns (forget his name all the time) and I went over to Astoria for the good food and nice alcohol. it was the perfect day for hanging out in the shade while drinking and doing not much of anything else.

We picked out a picnic table in the shade and hung out for hours. The sausage was fantastic. The drinks were cheap (for NYC). We were buying huge pitchers of good beer for $12. I was able to have my Jack & Cokes for $4. We had a good time.

I was so stuffed when I left. I just love BBQ. I couldn’t pass up some sausage and then cheese burgers. We were there for like 5 hours. We had to eat!

It was a great day to be outside!!!

Mobile Phone Etiquette

by

Even if Sprint isn’t your provider (there not mine), you should take the Sprint Wireless Courtesy Test. I scored a respectable 84, but it suggested some minor changes to my behavior. I probably wont change. I do allot of the “wrong things” when I answer calls for work issues. I know I shouldn’t, but if they are important I will answer.

You will be surprised what is considered rude by others. Living in NYC I see rude people all the time. Its not that New Yorkers are any more rude than other people. Their just happens to be so many people around, that one out of 100 on a subway car will be rude. It is just the law of averages! In a small town with everyone spread out, you get a smaller chance of someone being an ass.
