And there are at least two new verses to QV floating around in my brain. One about waiting (Penelope), and one for Colleen's recent experiences (which I haven't found a hook for yet).
Growing up on Long Island, I usually went to Gem Electronics or Lafayette. But sometimes there were things I couldn't get from them, or that I knew I could get cheaper on Canal Street. (Of course, I had to get an adult to drive me to any of these places.)
As for being "related somehow"... while my biological ancestry is almost entirely New England WASP, I have a "brother" - I explain it by saying "we were born into different families by mistake" - who's a nice Jewish boy from Queens, now living in Dallas. So we could be cousins or something ;-D

Dear Goddess - my husband grew up on 231st St. in the Bronx!
(And I have vivid memories of Radio Row!)
