Er.
Right.
Well.
Needless to say, there should be a picture of New York in the dictionary next to 'distraction'.
I was reading the back of a F.Scott Fitzgerald novel the other day. I can't remember the exact wording, but it was along the lines of:
'Fitzgerald, along with Hemingway, Pound, Ford Madox Ford and their contemporaries were part of the group of Americans who, aided by the strength of the dollar after World War One, discovered Europe in the 20s...'
Which is quite a feat, considering we already had the whole flags issue covered.
Well, continuing that spirit...
Guys, I have to tell you that I've found this wicked little place on the North end of the East Coast of the United States of America. It's called New York, it's really quite impressive...quite like home in a lot of ways, but everything is very different. Things can be quite cheap if you know where to look, especially with the exchange rate, and the people are out of this world. You should come and discover it with me.
Oh, and if I was ever to live here, which I can kinda see happening at some point, and I manage to get any writing done at all, then keep your eyes peeled for my picture in the dictionary next to the word 'determined'.
and being of the dictionary persuasion myself, i can assure everyone that pictures of new yorkers would then be found next to the word "thrilled".
Just remember Dorothy, if you want to stay don't click your ruby slippers three times. This way, you can stay as long as you like!
Please have the flying monkeys stop in Denver and pick me up.

They can stop to refuel in Southampton if they like...
perhaps they could stop off twice in Cambridge?
You tried Starbucks yet. It's like the got the idea from London or something.
New York? So it's like York, right, but they've just repackaged it a bit. You know, like they did with Coke, calling it New Coke?
So confused, so often.
Yeah but then coke dropped New Coke and Coke became New Coke and Old Coke became classic coke and where the hell is pepsi in york?
Pepsi in York?
