Family is from Roosevelt, LI until they moved to Smithtown, LI. My mom ended up coming to down to Jersey where I was born, but I still have family around Baldwin, LI. My mom was a big NYC person though, so my entire life was spent between the three places and I have always considered my self at least half a New Yorker. Anyway, before life's curve balls took me out of the scene, I worked and played in the city on a daily basis, and was even looking to move there. Unfortunately, those curve balls got me before it could happen and I am stuck in f'in Virginia...
I want to go back so bad, but it's hard to do when you have a wife and kid that aren't from there. I visit as often as I can though, which isn't enough for me, but is better than nothing.

Infospace is the goods. I was in Spanish Harlem like 2 weeks ago looking for a good car service to take me back to Brooklyn, and that app came through in the clutch.
