So yesterday I landed at the JFK and the wife and I took a taxi to our new apartment. We've never seen the place and my buddy is the one who hooked us up with it. He said the rent is cheap, utilities included and it's in a nice neighborhood.
He wasn't lying about any of that. It's a cheap and a nice apartment but today, I've just gotten finished taking a little walk and it feels just like Beijing. Hell, I don't mind a bit and the wife has easily grown comfortable already(y)

CENTURY 21!!
That store seriously stressed me out. Great deals if you don't mind sifting throuhg all of it and THEN waiting 30 min to get into a dressing room.

Cool, thanks for the advice. Yeah, my wife's uncle hooked us up with a Chinese taxi company and it's cheap and every car is a Lincoln Town car. They come rolling up to pick us up looking like the Chinese mob.
As a matter of fact Paul, I just got finished stuffing my face with some noodles and preserved duck eggs....Yummy!
I do have a question though. Throughout all of NY, is it common to hear jets all the time? I feel like Earl's dad here.

yes. and helicopters. i swear, we have more helicopters per square mile than an average heliport.

I obviously have never bought drugs.

My inlaws live in a normal Northern Virginia suburb (could be compared to "The Burbs" suburbs but more the houses are a lot closer together) but one of their neighbors has a helipad in their backyard. And every so often you hear it take off and land. Its like, whoa, and shit.

...so do dime bags just get smaller and smaller as inflation continues?
I see the same size nickel/dime bags on the sidewalk or whatever, but I assume the quantity packaged has to keep getting smaller.
Won't a dime bag eventually be, like, enough for a one-hitter?

I wouldn't have any idea where to look as of yet but, as soon as I do know, I'll hook a bro up.

Sure, just tell me what kind. I'll have the wife pick one out. I'll also pick out a dime bag.. For myself. If it's a $20 dime bag, then it's gotta be some danks.

i often wondered the very same thing. depending on the quality though, ive seen $20s containing as little as .75 grams to 1.3 grams. more or less.
