That video put my story into perspective. I'd have a bass anytime over a rat. I have never seen an animal like that and hope never to see one. I hope you bring enough money for taxis. It cost now $2.50 just to sit in one and the fare per unit is outrageous. Here you can check the rates.:

Keep in mind that one unit also counts as every minute that the car is moving at under 12 miles per hour, which happens to be most of the ride in Manhattan. Let me know when you are here. If I have a light schedule in school we can meet if you wish.
