Observations and Rants of a Native New Yorker: March 2009
http://observerants.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Observations and Rants of a Native New Yorker. Thursday, March 19, 2009. Something unique happened to me today. Now, allow me to clarify what I mean by the title of the post "The Flushing Effect". No, it has nothing to do with being in Flushing Queens for an extended period of time. It also has nothing to do with bathroom activities and/or equiptment. What it has to so is with the side effects of a prescribed medicine I was taking. A little over a week ago, my doctor prescribed Simcor. I read the descrip...

Observations and Rants of a Native New Yorker. Saturday, July 11, 2009. XBox360 Trials and Tribulations. So after 6 months of smooth gaming with the XBox 360, my voyage has hit a bump which feels more like a brick wall. I bought the XBox360 as a family present for this past Christmas. Now I've heard about all the problems the XBox360 had with the Red Rings of Death (RRoD). So off we went for a smooth 6 month gaming tour, when the weather started getting rough (Boy that sounds familiar, LOL). After going ...

Sometimes my travels on the NYC subway system leads to memorable and forgettable experiences. But this particular trip brought back memories of my youth in riding the subways during the dog days of the 80's. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Subscribe To Observations and Rants.

Observations and Rants of a Native New Yorker. Friday, November 14, 2008. The Bird of Prey in The Bronx. Labels: Bird of Prey. Wednesday, November 5, 2008. History was made November 4, 2008 11:00pm EST. I know that in my last post I mentioned the reason as to why I had my doubts on whether Obama could win the election. There's no need to re-hash what I said but I'll be the first to admit I was wrong (thankfully so). Or as I prefer to list myself as: A Realist, hate to be a buzz-killer but the time for th...

Observations and Rants of a Native New Yorker: Frugality Sucks and Its Really Hard to Keep To The Plan
http://observerants.blogspot.com/2015/01/frugality-sucks-and-its-really-hard-to.html
Observations and Rants of a Native New Yorker. Friday, January 16, 2015. Frugality Sucks and Its Really Hard to Keep To The Plan. As I've posted in recent weeks, I've been trying to find ways to lower expenses and save money in a financial situation where I am not making as much as I have been in the past few years. A couple of nights ago, the weight of my goal hit me squarely in the face when I found myself re-routed due to train construction. By Caroline Harper. Here is how the journal is described:.

Observations and Rants of a Native New Yorker: May 2008

Observations and Rants of a Native New Yorker. Wednesday, May 28, 2008. Panhandlers, Judgments and The Iron Horse. While riding the Iron Horse back from work this past afternoon (After taking the work keys with me) I noticed that there were panhandlers on the train. Now seeing panhandlers on the train is not a rare sight. But who they are is what made me think about something Professor Lobel mentioned in my American Urban History class this past semester. In my mind, the first thing I did was look at him...

Observations and Rants of a Native New Yorker. Sunday, September 13, 2009. Stories from the Bar on a Saturday Night. And I retort that I would never touch a TV in a bar if I never worked there. The dude waves me off like its no big deal and half-assedly asks if I can raise the volume. Any guess on my answer? So we have a line for the men's room (as is prone to happen on busy Friday and Saturday nights). Friday, September 11, 2009. September 11, 2001-September 11, 2009. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Observations and Rants of a Native New Yorker. Saturday, July 12, 2008. Bobby Murcer, Rest in Peace. Today marks a sad day. Bobby Ray Murcer has passed on due to his battle with brain cancer. Another one of MY. Monday, July 7, 2008. Been a while since I've ranted on something appropriate of a rant. Here goes. It must be a Bronx thing. This whole idea by people of varied ages that they are ENTITLED. It sucks that I, as a fare paying member of society, has to take a back seat to some punk ass person who is...

Observations and Rants of a Native New Yorker: December 2008
http://observerants.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Observations and Rants of a Native New Yorker. Monday, December 22, 2008. The Need for Gloves on the Iron Horse. This is the worst time of year to be down on your luck. In reality, any time of the year is a hard time be down on your luck. But in my opinion, Christmas is really bad. We (hopefully) all have good memories from our childhoods during Christmas. So to have nothing while watching people walk around with bags of gifts can really be demoralizing. But I digress. Sunday, December 21, 2008. She laug...
