If you were acting anything like how you act here, I don't think anybody is surprised that someone tried to stab you.

Did I ever tell you the story of How I almost got stabbed at the st. george's library? yes, SI is the worst! even worse than the bronx or e. queens. It's worse cause they have really stupid crimes. Like in the bronx they will mug you for money. In SI they beat you up cause they don't like your baseball cap or something retarded like that.

Personally, I prefer to use the Ikea water taxi when the cops chase me.

The kids pobably figured the cops would be too mellowed out by the slow, relaxing, picturesque ride to want to arrest anyone. "There go our suspects! Come on, let's get -- hey, look, the Statue of Liberty..."

"ha! those coppers will never catch us on this...slow moving boat that has only 1 destination?" i guess they didn't think their cunning plan all the way through.

What happened to the days of getting into fights and then buying the other guy a drink afterwards?
