Bonus points: A few more things just about me.

I love Manhattan. My favorite landmark is the Chrysler Building. My favorite tourist attraction is the Staten Island Ferry.

I've been to Coney Island. I love the Roller Coaster, the big star Ferris Wheel, the Freak Show and Nathan's Hot Dogs.

I've gone to the top of the Empire State Building at 10:00 at night.

I've been assaulted at gunpoint twice in my life.

I've had the same wallet since 1974.

I'm superstitious.

I literally bought the tshirt off Abbie Hoffman's back for eight bucks. He told me Mick Jagger had lousy pot and tried to get me to go back to his hotel room. I didn't go.

Jimmy Carter kissed my baby when he was campaigning for President. Our picture ran on the wires all over the world. I still have a copy.

I worked with DNC spindoctors to get John Olver elected the first time.

I talked to Mike Dukasis regularly when he was governor of Massachusetts.

I've talked to the Dalai Lama on the telephone.
