The Air Up There

Whatever happened to Minute Bol? He has to be one of the most
underrated actors of all time. I'm just saying.....

In the air somewhere over the Atlantic right now. Relax. Relax.
I'm not posting from here. I'm simply writing a note and will post
when I land. You happy?

It's been a nice flight so far. I slept for about the first hour,
watched 17 Again(that critically acclaimed cinematic adventure
featuring Matthew Perry's character being able to go back and relive
his senior year of high school......quite imaginative plot. Where do
they come up with this original stuff? Some would say that this type
of movie has been done before, but I would say that those that are
saying that are just jealous THEY haven't been able to go back in
time.), and dozed on and off for the past few hours. I'm banking on
that we have about an hour left to Philly.

Speaking of Philly.....that's a pretty solid nickname for a city.
What are the top city nicknames?

Let's see(in no particular order):
1. LA is solid. Saves time. Good name recognition as well
2. Hotlanta is ok. It's fun and all but saves no time really.
3. Sparkle City for Spartanburg sounds nice, but really couldn't be
further from the truth.....although Spartanburg is really making a
nice turnaround. One other problem with this nickname is that it is
one syllable longer than the actual city name.
4. The Queen City for Charlotte. Too long but ok otherwise
5. NYC for New York. It's a big nickname for a big city. I like it.
6. The Sweaty Armpit for Teaneck, NJ. Enough said. Spot on.
