Get Out Much?


When I first moved from Staten Island to New Jersey people would ask, “Where are you from?” I guess my accent had “This guy is not from around here” written all over it. This question came from the very sheltered people who have never traveled over the Outerbridge Crossing nor the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge. And, of course, their answer was “No” when I asked if they have ever been to Yankee stadium. Did you think, at that point, I was going to ask if they knew what a johnny pump was?
