Who else wants this stupid storm to blow out to sea before it hits New England? -

I do! Need to leave the house tomorrow morning at 6:45. I feel a lot of moisture in the air though so I m not counting on it :(

i really just want it to melt Report Abuse

I did but it already started a little heavy. I hope it clears off fast. I m also hoping for some rain so it d not too icy on the road.

I m kinda thinking it will be nice to have a white Christmas! :-)

Need information for new years eve in times square!? -

me and 3 other friends (4 total) are going to times square for New Years eve, and we re not sure what would be the easiest way to travel into the city. i looked around saw either the train or a bus. would the bus be worth it? the bus would leave from philly, so we d only have to drive an hour then get on a bus compared to taking the train from msu. please let me know what you think.Dont tell me not to go and give me reasons why it isn t worth it and try to talk me out of it. i dont care and WE ARE GOING

The bus will be full of drunk irish. Thats not racist, its a fact.The best thing would be the subway from grand central station. Fast and cheap and somewhat clean.Just watch your wallet in the crowd at time square

Both the train and the bus will arrive in town within walking distance of Times Square. The bos comes int Port Authority Bust Terminal which is basically one block west of Times Square. The train will come into Penn Station, about a half mile away. Pick your poison.

Take the train, its only an hour travel time each way on Amtrak. If that s to expensive, then take SEPTA from Philly to Trenton and then NJ Transit to New York City.Good luck

I usually drive into Jersey City and take the PATH train in NYC. From there just take the appropriate trains to where ever you want to watch from.

Do people think new orleans is a slow country place? -

ignorance, they believe what they see in the movies, everyone has alligators in the back yard and says cher.anyone who has ever been anywhere other than Bourbon street, the airport or the superdome, know what a wonderful an unique place it is.

I think that New Orleans is thought of a city with a slower pace compared to other cities, but New Orleans wouldn t be considered country by any means.

New Orleans is definately slower paced than Boston but it still feels like a city.

Well I am from New York, and yes people here would consider NOLA to be a slow-paced city. Although many are jealous.

HELL NO I AM FROM NEW ORLEANS AND BELIEVE ME IT AIN T SLOW ONE BIT.

quot;resort under 5 hours from chicagoland areaquot; So does anybody have any reviews of Mt. La Crosse ski resort (WI)? -

I am looking for a ski resort with long runs within 5 hours of the Chicago-Land area. I have been skiing out west (Ski apache, Powderhorn) and found them both enjoyable. Clearly we have nothing in comparison to those but looking for something to keep myself fresh, and to satisfy my craving for skiing. I looked up this resort and it looked pretty decent. If not any other reviews? (i have been to alpine valley, devils head(good), and villa olivia.

i do know

Urban style photos in LA? -

I want to shoot some photos for a fashion store in LA.I m new to town and I really don t know where to go.I want city like, urbal feel of atmosphere..not too bustling with people but nice architectureor very pretty cottage like housesor any clean and nice looking neighborhoods..I know downtown is good-but does anyone know of any specific streetor a specific place where its neat to take pictures?

What about the Wiltern? That s pretty cool. Or just about anything on Wilshire. Great art deco archiecture between downtown and Beverly Hills.Larchmont area has cool houses.Make sure you have a permit. A permit is required for commercial still photography. Avoid heavy fines and penalties. http://www.filmla.com/getting_started.ph��(I m not associated with these folks, but did see a photo shoot get shut down right in the middle. The photog started to put up a stink, and the cops started treating him like he was bin Laden. Moral of the story: Get a permit.)

hmmm, I have taken pictures all over greater LA with tripods and a commercial looking set up and never even knew a permit was required for professionals stills, and never had ANYONE SAY ANYTHING TO ME ABOUT IT...I am going to guess you are shooting for some kind of urban pioneer/Ed Hardy type fashion and not some high end Rodeo Dr. type fashions....I would go to the northwest fringes of downtown (near the old trolley tunnel). I think you could get some good pics there. (Hint--take some BIG guys with you---LOL)....Good shooting, hope you get good light....

You can try the Angelino Heights area between Sunset and Temple Streets near Douglas, west of Downtown; and yes just like the person mentioned above watch out for the Photo Police.

What was the temperature in austin tx lastnight? -

just wanna know how cold it got last night and where i could find the answer.

My thermometer here in Travis Heights recorded a low of 37 degrees. You might be able to find the answer to these types of questions at Weather Underground (wunderground.com) or the Austin American Statesman s weather section (they have a guy named Bob Rose who does a blog that has day by day breakdowns).

It got to 45 in Lakeway.

Is it feasible to stay at Sea-tac overnight? -

So I m gonna be overnighting it in Seattle to catch a flight the next day. Is there anyplace inside the airport where I could stay. I know some international airports, mostly in Asia, have like little hotels or atleast showers for travelers who are overnighting it in the airport. Is Sea-Tac like that? I m doubting it since it is in the US, but maybe someone knows. It s just too bad I can t use the USO anymore since I m out of the service.

There are no overnight hotels/showers or the like at Seatac other than the USO. But there are numerous hotels just outside the airport and most offer a 24 hour shuttle to/from the airport that would take less than 10 minutes to get to.I recommend reading through the reviews at the web site below to get a real idea of what sleeping at sea-tac would be like.http://www.sleepinginairports.net/list.a��
