We berlong

I've been saving this story up: Two days ago I was walking home from a haircut and on Houston and Elizabeth I heard a tiny child say, "Are we on the Lower East Side?" His mom replied, "I am NOT going to answer that question."

Now I'm in Berlin and it's fun. I guess I miss America, but the boys here are cute and the beer tastes better. Plus, I like how pressure-free my life is when I don't speak the language.

Is it really racist if I say that Berlin is kind of the Portland of Europe? I guess maybe it's more accurate to say that it's the Kelly Taylor of Germany. Or, maybe, the Coney Island of your mind?
