I Don't Give A Bleep About New York Taxi Cabs

I am mad about these dang gone Taxi drivers in New York City that don't know where the Hell they are going. My sister just called me from New York and was telling me that she called a taxi to take her from long island to Brooklyn. Now if you are a New Yorker you know that there really is one true straight shot...but this dude must of thought she was a tourist and want to show her the whole damn city before he take her to Linden Blvd.

She told me she was screaming at him to turn here, turn there an he was just ignoring her. Then when he stopped the cab he wanted to charge her "rent money!" WTF? I lived in New York for over 17 years and even though some things have changed, a lot of things have not.

When he finally reached, she flew out the cab. The man was yelling,"you ain't paying," I am calling the cops. She flipped him off and told them him call them, because when they look at the meter they are not going to believe you picked me up in Brentwood. She said he kinda muttered something and then drove off.

Now they have this thing called, "Cash Cabs." It is a game show and you jump into a cab only to find out you are game show called, "Cash Cab." The host is this dude called, "Ben Bailey." Then the lights come on and scare the BeJeus outta yah. Now if I am in a hurry to get to work, don't be scaring me in your taxi. Then I pee pee myself and your show gotta cleaning bill..it is just too crazy.

Then their is this other crazy show, that use to come on HBO, "taxicab confessions." This is a show where folks want to just tell all their bidness. I think folks use taxi cabs as confessionals.

I Don't Give A Bleep About-AirlineWars

I am trying to go to New York in July. Why is it so difficult to get a plane ticket from now, for less then $600.00? From California to New York $600.00 (oneway). Are you kidding. I went on Priceline, United Airlines (that was a mistake), JetBlue, Southwest (which strangely does not go to NYC, even though I flew on it last year to NYC). So I tried all these airlines and I think they were talking to each other. Same fare.

Finally, I found one on CheapTickets.com. Of course I have to leave at 1am to get into New York some God forsaken time the next day (therefore wasting a whole day) but I got one that was reasonable. What is reasonable, $179.00 round trip. I put that credit card number in so fast, I think I got carpal tunnel typing.

I understand about the fuel issue, but I mean the gasoline stations are doing us in, the taxi service has gone up, what are we to do. Ride a bicycle to New York City? I mean they are not feeding us anymore. God help you if you didn't eat before you got on the plane and worse yet if you didn't take a snack. The airlines will throw stale peanuts at you forever. It is sad.

I use to love Planters (not anymore). What are we to do. We are just lonely peons. So if we have to travel, I guess we have no choice, but to fork up the dough.

I don't Give A Bleep-About The NYC Jeweler

Good old New York City, only in New York can a business man (a Jeweler) could falsely report news (involving a terrorist plot no less) and feels he can get away with it. Wednesday, a Jeweler was sentenced to six months in prison and fined $5,000 for falsely reporting that 5 Arab men had plotted to bomb the subway station.

Rimon Alkatri also faces deportation to his native Syria as a convicted felon.

See why I don't give a Bleep-because he is stupid. Do people feel America is that damn gullible.
