TNL/NYC December Get-Together (Saturday, 12/20)

Last time I was in NYC one day I walked from 48th Street to 80th street and back plus about 5 blocks over, with my son. Then that same night walked from 48th to Lincoln Center and back. What a bunch of girls you all are.

I regularly walked from the Kinokuniya on 49th to Thailand Café down on 2nd and St. Marks, and then i'd walk to Sunshine Cinemas down on Houston, between 2nd and 1st. And then if i felt like it, i'd walk up to Forbidden Planet, and then to Yu-nee-un Square, my wheel needs repair to catch the subway to Jamaica and walk another 8 blocks back to the closest place i could park my car and wasn't afraid of my shit getting stolen by Ashen Victor.
Ya'll's a bunch of lazies. I bet you all have big butts and soft hands.

what are we talking about anyway.

Why would you walk when the subway goes everywhere and costs like $2?

why are all you dinnermashers still talking about walking

This. I plan on taking a day or two during the week when nothing is going on (assuming that I can arrange it all) and exploring the city all by my lonesome. I wanted to do this last time but then all of a sudden there were a million TNLers and we all wanted to drink. Nice.

But you are right, continuing on with that walk was the biggest failure of the event. I really should have just gotten on the subway. But, it built character and gives us something to remenice about six months afterwards.

It was the only hiccup of the whole thing.

I didn't mind the walk.

Bull fucking shit, a quarter mile. A quarter mile is nothing. It was way longer than that, dude.

Bahn was kidding. It's about 2 miles, I think. Maybe 2.5 if there was some lateral movement. Long walk, not ridiculous, but uncomfortable in the scorching heat. I've done it, but only at night.

Let's make the next get together in mid-spring please, like April so it's not ridiculously hot.
