Wassup! Sam here doing his one of many homework’s. Well I checked out that website, http://www.forgotten-ny.com, and found some pretty interesting stuff there. It’s weird because you don’t really notice how strange and crazy New York City is until you stand aside and look at it. Even though we all live in the same city there are so many things to see in New York City. You can literally take a vacation in New York City even if you still live in New York City because the 5 boroughs that make up New York City have many different sceneries and cultures.
The website, http://www.forgotten-ny.com, seems to be a website devoted to the different landmarks in New York City both old and new. The Board members of this website also talk about many issues that New Yorkers face daily. Subjects vary from the infamous new constructions of 3 family houses being built all over Queens to the disgraceful Porno Stores near Times Square, Manhattan. In addition, we see some things that we, New Yorkers, take for granted. The website points out many landmarks such as old roads, buildings, and houses that have been in New York for decades. There are many different topics that, although seems stupid, are really quite interesting when get to read it. For example, there may be an article about the city that you live in. After reading that article you will never look at your neighborhood the same way because of the history or issue that comes with living there.
What I really liked about this website is that they have a section devoted to the crap in Queens called QUEENS CRAP. Here we see many articles about how the city is destroying Queens by building good-for-nothing structures. But this week they ran the article about the 6 foot long Thresher Shark that washed up onto shore at Rockaway Beach. It’s so cool how there’s sharks in New York. It’s nice to know at least something NORMAL lives in the waters of New York besides 3 eyed fish and fish with two heads. But the shark didn’t live because it washed onto shore again but this time it was dead. By looking at the picture of this 6 foot long shark it reminds you of JAWS. I was just hoping that this shark wouldn’t go on a killing spree like JAWS did. This really shows how New York City is very interesting. We have unusual things such as Tornados ripping roof tops off in Brooklyn to Sharks swimming in Queens!
