As you are from RI you may not understand that we who live in Upstate are frequently asked where we are in "the city". We are 7 hours or more away from the city, and we are not "the city". We may love NYC, and we may be in complete appreciation for their situation, but we are Upstate. We are proud of those things that make us unique. We are wine country. We are wilderness. We are the Finger Lakes Region. We are not NYC. The entire state is great, I love NYC, I lived there for a while, but as an Upstater, I can say there are a lot of us who do not want to be thought of as being in NYC.
And yes, "Flushing" being related to a toilet, seems to be funny to me! I'm not implying Flushing NYC is a bad place, it is a play on words. If you have no sense of humor, I suspect this is a bad place to hang.
The last thing I would want to do is disparage anything in NYC. I support NYC. I'm a New Yorker who understands that diversity is what makes us great, it is what gives us the strength to endure.
And yes, I thought it was funny and demonderrick must have because I just noticed his reply was "going down" the same sort of pipe.

You got me then, I'm sorry!
Sometimes my sick mind takes control of me and I just jump to the end of the thread to post a funny reply. Hey, it ain't easy living with a strange sense of humor!

Derrick, understood, so is somebody driving you from Flushing to the airport? Going back just for the holidays? Let me know what time you will be around here, hopefully we can go get something to eat before you leave or something.
