oh yeah, Staten island has changed a lot. There is a lot of commerce here now, brooklyn people have moved down here. Staten Island became hot once Nascar was making its way here but I guess the way things got Nascar isn't coming here anymore.

I heard about that---could you imagine how bad traffic would have been if Nascar would have gone there--plus there's not enough hotels

Former Staten Island guy here!
Mom is still there. I still go down to visit. It was a great place back in the seventies and early eighties, But it started to change and I was glad to get out.
But hey, Nice to meet some alumni of "THE ROCK".

Just moved here from Washington State. I'm in the Coast Guard and 33 years old with no friends out here yet. But I'm hopeful.
