“My family is coming to visit from Brazil. It’s not a holiday down there but they like the idea of Thanksgiving so they come up here to celebrate. There’s no change of season where they live so they really enjoy seeing the leaves changing colors on the trees.”

“That I survived Hurricane Sandy. Fortunately, no one close to me was killed but some of my friends in New York were devastated. My heart goes out to anyone who was affected by it. I hope they can rehabilitate their lives.”

“My wife and I just got married in New York. It’s been great. Married life doesn’t really change you but it’s good to have the recognition. I just got on her health insurance as her spouse. That was exciting.”

“The election is over, and Obama won. The TV ads didn’t bother me, but the uncertainty of who would win was getting to me. Now I feel much better about the economy. Things are looking up.”
