Charlie,
I live in Cypress Hills, just about on the Queens border.
Most people have never heard of it (which is OK with us).
It's south of Glendale and north of Ozone Park. Where do you
live now?
Thanks for the heads up about your books. Sounds like the
kind of stuff my wife and I both enjoy. I'm going to pick up
a few next time I order from Amazon.
