How bad will traffic be driving from D.C. to Southern Long Island on New Years Eve? Avoiding NYC? -

Going to Islip... How long in hours

It really shouldn t be all that bad until maybe when you get past Kennedy Airport. The Van Wyck has a tendency of getting jammed up at that spot. Assuming that you are going to take the Outerbridge into Staten Island, over the Verrazano and then the Belt to the Southern State. It takes a good three hours from DC to Staten Island then figure one more hour to Islip.

it s not possible to get to Long Island without going through NYC (not counting taking a ferry from bridgeport CT but that s way out of the way). However, the Goethals bridge, the SI expressway, the Verrizano bridge, the Belt parkway and the southern state are the mots direct.

Im thinkin bout movin 2 Tx and Ive narrowed to Austin or Houston. anyone know bout the country music scene? -

I am 28, have a pretty diverse resume, would be moving alone except for my huge dog, and I love country music. Any advice on Austin or Houston?

Move to Austin its the Live Music Capital of the World! Austin has a big country scene also.

If you love country music, Austin is the place for you. The Broken Spoke is one of my favorite places to go when in Austin.http://www.brokenspokeaustintx.com/Gruene Hall is another good place to go. It s about an hour south of Austin.http://www.gruenehall.com/

Well, for country music, Austin.For everything else, Houston.

Austin!

Austin is best for musicHouston is best for jobs

I ll have to agree with all of the above.

Beverly Hills High...? -

Really anxious/nervous. We re moving to Beverly Hills and I ve been thinking about how Beverly Hills High is going to be. Anyone go there? Tell me what it s like? How the schedule works? :]Thanks so much.

Guess what Aubrey? Beverly Hills High (if you really are moving there) is just like any other school. What made you think it would be any different? Have you been watching too many of those stupid (scripted) MTV television programs? You go to class, the instructors try to teach you something, and you go back home. Just like at the school you now attend. Just curious. You ve asked 61 questions , and 45 of them tend to be in the What is your opinion of my song? category. Perhaps I was wrong about you watching too many MTV programs, you re obviously watching too much of American Idol.Addendum: Gee, we all (so far) have gotten thumbs down . I guess she doesn t like hearing the truth.

I believe the other posters are pretty close to the mark. I had a friend who went there awhile back, and it s nothing terribly special, although it s certainly a BIG step above schools in LAUSD. The remark about the student cars being better than the faculty is spot on. Back then, the only place you d find more BMW s was at USC or the BMW dealership. Schedule? You go to each clase for about 45-50 minutes, just like every other HS.Really, don t be nervous. It s just like any other high school. Just find your niche and put in your 4 years.

i didn t go there but i went to another high school in OC which is also wealthy. many high schools in So Cal are pretty much the same you have rich kids with nice cars and middle class kids. you will have your drama and all that stuff, like any high school. i answered this question before and trust me no matter how many times you ask you will get the same answers. good luck

i have a friend who goes thereits a nice school, most kids there are equivalent to private school kids, very affected by moneyand even though everyone has nice cars, parking is a *****my friend has accumulated 14 parking tickets over 2 years, be careful

I went to BHS 7 years ago. I agree with above poster, there s nothing special, it s just like any other high school.

I worked with a guy that went there.. he said that there was nothing special about it, other than the student body had nicer wheels than the faculty.

BHH is just like any other school except the kids are more rich.

it wasnt as cool as i expexted

i heard it is like any other school
