I liked it. I just wish he would have asked us for better footage.. we of course shot it on a very nice camera. But that was all part of the joke, so whatever... hehe. Hey Jeff, yea.. I know about the history of New York.. although I guess it didn't come off that way since others have made similar comments to yours... I just wondered why the website? And why demand it back now? Seemed like an inside joke among friends to me... Ha ha.. I saw the Daily Show clip. I liked it. I just wish he would have asked us for better footage.. we of course shot it on a very nice camera.

I just thought I would get on here and bloggit all to hell. I haven't been sick since I was a little kid. I thought it was odd that I wasn't then upon giving a blood test it was discovered that I had an exhorbitant amount of antibodies in my blood. I have the hereditary existence of antibodies of my entire gene pool. Needless to say they won't let me give blood. They say my blood might hurt someone by essentially giving them what I have a natural defense against. It's kinda cool in a dark way to be poison. Stay healthy & happy! Hi Amanda,

New York was called New Amsterdam first when the Dutch bought it from the Indians for beads. A quick check of new media like wikipedia or google would have given you the answer. Try not to let the reporter gig make you into the online version of a local newsperson. Local news should die a slow death not be reborn on the internet. I'm supportive of you and your attempt to challenge old media, so please take this as constructive criticism.
