    Interesting/informative/entertaining. Excellent video tour of exteriors & interiors of buildings. Drawings from last century enabling viewers to better understand what the orator is describing. Ahhh-!!! A Sabrett dog wagon-!!!🤗. Haven't seen one of those since " Chicago land ". Even purchased a " Chicago " style dog-!!! 😉. " Chicago " Land has an interesting meat packing district/only more so-!!!🤗. Never got the opportunity to consume a Sabrett dog off one of those vendors in ( N.Y.C.)😭. Now I'll never know which city serves better " Sabrett dogs-!!! 🤔. How about a documentary about . .A tale of 2 Sabrett vendors-???🤔. I often have wondered how many Sabrett dog consumers have died from Sabrett hot dog poisoning over the years-???.😇.

    Interesting video, a fresh air breath of NYC. The human dignity of freedom of expression, have you seen Washington Square? In the inherent thankfulness, thank you for your consideration. Good today of days, in that it is obvious, beyond the human condition in history immemorial, in natural language recorded human history, let one God be Sovereign and you be steward of yourself, simply put. Does God and someone's rights from the Creator being God have the fact, that human dignity is expressed by God given, image and likeness of God? Yes. No human being person individual has the right to implications to stir up instigation against another individual by it has happened in human history, and recorded in natural language. The vehicle for "recorded" natural language in human history is "text." That helps prevent accusations of implications on one God, of the idiomatic needs to be by human agency to bring the hyperbole, an extreme ironical satirical parody, *my God is bigger than your God.* Does this help me? Yes, God is leading, as in recording natural language human recorded texts in human history, thus my personal beliefs can hold up the 1st Amendment Establishment clause, not just Congress, this context, in that my word is bond, in this text, this is not to promote my personal beliefs. I hold to, in fact, that natural language texts of recorded in human history in natural texts, -[even by human interference such as follows: | This is your past, this is your present, | now this or that implication - this is your life, | - behaving like the thought police];- By that life I live is my lifelong sojourn of daily journeys, until I breathe my last earthly breath;- Thereby, it can be expressed, [not claiming to tell my belief system to hold up the 1st Amendment Establishment clause, by God is sole judge in recorded natural language human history], - that by recorded natural language in human history perspective, - an only by the perspective of having been recorded, - and handed down in each codex, for example in human history, - thus a *historical perspective, not promoting a religious expression, for the purpose of letting one God be God as recorded in human natural language history;- In a voluntary expression of human agency to have recorded in historical perspective of history, each Testament of texts in natural language called, The Bible, or The Holy Bible. Thus no one is responsible for someone having "inference," - or "inferences" or to have "inferred" something;- This in regard to me, thereby, an oath is an oath, by God, so help me God, thank God, this is true, - for only historical perspective natural language texts in humanity having had these natural language texts in recorded history. Interested in this approach? Not forming a context of promoting religious expression for the purpose of upholding the 1st Amendment Establishment Clause - can help the free exchange of ideas, however, in promotion there are some who can help, whom I've tried to contact. 🕊Good today of days. P.S. there are promoted by-laws, not just vision statements.

    If you ever make your way to Vermont, there is a city called Rutland, it has the highest concentration of Italian immigrants Per Capita next to NYC, we also have the 3rd oldest Italian American club in the USA. Ted's pizza opened in 1958 and has pizza that is similar to NYC, I lived in Astoria for 3 years. The sauce, whole milk and smoked pep is just perfect! All the ingredients are house made with recipes that came from the Vignoe family who I believe moved to Rutland from Brooklyn in the early 1900s.

From Germany, to Italy, to France, Australia, the PI’s, Japan, Korea, and the US of A, some places come close but the standard bearer is NYC. I’ll let you fight which Burroughs has the best.
