Hello ~~  If you like my blog and it is useful to you, please consider buying my ESL book. It's very funny and useful.  The Book is called: New York City Sucks, But You'll Want to Come Here Anyway.  It's also very inexpensive - I kept the price low ($3.50 USD). Unfortunately, it is only an e-book at this time.
