The Big Apple: My Top 10 Observer-ations

10. Got my bag checked and my toothpaste confiscated at D/FW Airport. Do I look that guilty?

9. I'll never get tired of flying into New York. That skyline is one of the best views on Earth.

8. Nothing more unnerving than the cab ride from LaGuardia Aiport into the city. This one was $35 and full of unscripted double lane changes and, of course, not a lot of chit-chat with the driver.

7. Staying at a Mid-town Manhattan hotel not far from Times Square and/or Central Park and, yes, Seinfeld's "Soup Nazi" joint (It's actually called Soup Man). My perch is across from tiny flats that probably cost $1 million. No thanks.
