I spent my childhood in northern New York State, and like many kids, bugs and other critters fascinated me.

I like a New York accent.

For me, fashion begins in New York.

I'm the most independent and conservative Democrat in New York State.

In New York, there are so many potholes, they're like craters on the moon. That's another traffic thing.

I miss New York terribly. There is no place like the city. I miss people-watching. I miss the nightlife. I miss the food. There are so many options in New York City.
