[jonthatjon]

I say from now on Todds in charge of posting meets weekly...afterall it was originally his idea so its only fair....that and I would like to see some girls show up  (around my age lol) 

[1st grade Yoer]

Yea, because the one that comes around my age is a fool. ::cough:: Chris! ::cough:: 

[METALhitman]

hey im not a girl.
just for reasons un-mentioned does not mean im a girl.

and there is another inside joke between me and derk mon.

but that will remain unknown to all. and is inappropriate for the board.

[madcow]

Hey  -
Got some sleep and feel a little better now.
Sorry for the name calling. My bad.
And I really don't don't care who started the meet or what it's called - as long as it's a name that sounds inviting to EVERYONE.
"Brotherhood" - altho' well meaning and maybe descriptive of the bond that we all feel , is just way too testosterone filled for my liking.
If I were anything other than a teenage boy ( or mutant ninja turtle ) I would be totally turned off  to meeting in Union Square to yoyo if it meant enduring a "brotherhood ".
 As someone who is committed to the idea of World Peace thru yoyo play, I beseech you to find a name that doesn't exclude anyone . . . INCLUDING old ladies. ( I might not mind meeting one of these " old ladies " )
 "Brotherhood " reminds me of  . . the Army, the Crusades, the Mafia, Crips and Bloods, Starsky and Hutch . . . just to name a few of the connotations that really turns me off.
As I read this, I think to myself - " Is this guy serious ? Is he Nuts ? "
well - Yeah. This is not supposed to be a drunken back slappin' secret society.
If you really need one if those - start yer own. It's a club I don't want any part of.

[METALhitman]

[JScruffy]

When you get off the Staten Island Ferry you can get...

(yellow colored line) - R or W lines at the Whitehall St/South Ferry Stop to 14th St. Union Square by taking the uptown train

NOTE - There is also a South Ferry stop for the 1 (red line) which is a different subway stop.

Detailed R line info - http://mta.info/nyct/service/rline.htm
Detailed W line info - http://mta.info/nyct/service/wline.htm

If you check out maps.google.com and search on NYC...you can zoom in on the streets around where you get off the ferry and it shows the subway stops on it so you can walk to them easily.

Sorry if this was information overkill but wanted to make sure you had it all covered just in case.

[TAB]

"Mom, I know you're going to hate me for this, but being that we have nothing else to do tomorrow, I was wondering if you wanted to drive me to NYC where you shop for 4 hours, while I yo-yo with my friends."
[Incredibly long pause]
"No."
