This just caused me to look at the Mega bus- I could take the bus to NY, get there at 1, buy fabric, and come back at 5 for very little money. Of course it is 14 hours of travel time to spend 2 hours shopping!
I like money better than people. People can so rarely be exchanged for goods and/or services!

JetBlue between JFK and ROC is actually pretty cheap.

They have gone up- The Mega bus is about $40 and drops off within walking distance of the garment district. The plane is about $350, and then the cab to and from the airport.

ROC is the Rochester (NY) Airport code. I used to be able to get a round trip to NY for $99, but no longer...

I'm seeing prices of about $77, each way.
ROC = Rochester International Airport.

I am taking Amtrak today! I'm hoping that leaving at lunch will mean Union Station is slightly less hairy than it usually is the day before Thanksgiving.
Realistically, Union Station probably will be super crowded, super hot, and smell weirdly of SpaghettiOs.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Mmm....SpaghettiOs...

I wish I could justify taking Amtrak more. I love train travel. But especially in the NW, driving is just so much easier/more worth it--you don't have the same issues like driving into New York, with traffic and parking.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I'm staying here for Thanksgiving.
ION, I like this awesome headline:
Coming tomorrow: Hot Sun-on-comet action
Tomorrow, Comet ISON is due to fly closer to the Sun than Encke, during a much more active time in the solar cycle. Scientists are anticipating an awesome collision, like spectators at a demolition derby.
