My mother is a member. Also, although people often talk about "the Brooklyn accent," studies have shown there's no such things, just different variations on "the New York accent."Moving with Mitchellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12954028272162285597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2367834014770669778.post-41067891875636311342014-11-18T04:56:54.810+01:002014-11-18T04:56:54.810+01:00Woy is the word of the day here in AZ.Woy is the word of the day here in AZ.Ur-spohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04237644452200889946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2367834014770669778.post-70097660531184835302014-11-16T04:02:46.951+01:002014-11-16T04:02:46.951+01:00I spoke with my sister who works in that area of N...I spoke with my sister who works in that area of New York for JASA.

You probably already know much of this, so forgive me: New York City is made up of the five boroughs: Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens [The] Bronx, and Staten Island. <br /><br />"Manhattan Beach" is a neighborhood in Brooklyn. <br /><br />If you live in the borough of Manhattan, your address is New York, New York. <br /><br />If you live in Brooklyn or one of the other boroughs, your address is the name of THAT borough. People who live in the area, say they're going to "The City" when they go to Manhattan. "Do you live in The City?" "No, I live in Brooklyn." <br /><br />Clear as mud, huh?Moving with Mitchellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12954028272162285597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2367834014770669778.post-69671167614559012032014-11-15T19:30:40.825+01:002014-11-15T19:30:40.825+01:00Bob:
