RE: The Stupid. It Burns -- Andrew Cuomo Makes Sure NY Will be a Wasteland
For the last few decades we've called Houston Texas 'New York City South'.
Some NY refugees aren't bad people..once they get deprogrammed. Many times the transition period is hard.
I grew up in the Hudson Valley, I definitely needed some deprogramming as an 18YO. Now? I debated going back there for my mother's funeral... that's how much I dislike NY.
I'm near Saratoga but went to college at HVCC!
funerals are for the living...
your mother is dead..she doesn't care.
are there any living that you want to impress?
Nope.. that was the real problem
if there is no one you feel the need to impress..and you don't want to go.
DON'T.
I agree, but a funeral can also help some people get closure. I prefer to think of loved ones who have died as still living, but that I just have not had a chance to talk to or visit in a while. After all, my own life will pass, but in a blink in the grand scheme of things and I will see them in Heaven (If I get in, that is!).
yup..do what you think is right.
always.
I'm in NY and counting down my years until escape like a prisoner with a piece of chalk on a rock wall.
consider that this winter is a mild precursor of the immediate future..
