[maninwhitedress]

NYC is the city that makes people lonely.

[elviradark6]

i'd say so,

[maninwhitedress]

It made me lonely back in 1979. Now no body talks to me and I'm all alone youtube. Angry and in a white dress.

[elviradark6]

yep, that i want to borrow

[flyngsnow]

Nasty City living but it's home eh?

I was there twice in the late 70's, but it was a City then and most don't change much.

Never again will I live in one, to old and cranky and don't like being pushed as you may have guessed.
