I'm slowly munching my last bite of it and inevitably I ask. Why is it that we can order a hamburger at most restaurants, but the only place we can order a hot dog is at a baseball game or the streets of NYC? I'm sensing some serious food discrimination here.

How about changing the sequence of calling the months?
I often wonder why we don't re-arrange the regular Jan-Dec sequence of calling the months to synchronize seasons across continents. For instance, why can't December be experienced as a cold winter month in Australia, like it is in London or New York. If you live in Australia or some place else in the Southern hemisphere, when it's winter in Europe it's the opposite in Australia (summer). But if we just change the sequence of calling the months, December would move to what is now June and be as cold and winter in Australia in December as it is in London or New York! :)

Referring to having the air-condition on during the hot summer months at a very low temperature. This is typical if you work in New York. When I did my training there, the air-con kept the office so cold that I was freezing to the point I had to have a blanket wrapped around me all the time. I was told a cold office keeps employees awake. Is that true? If true, this is crazy, sick and inhumane.
There is a difference between keeping cool and freezing to death. That difference should be no no more than 10 degrees Celsius but the New Yorkers seem to surpass any reasonable expectation of coolness! Or maybe this is how New Yorkers train for the coming Ice Age :)
Other than that New York is a great city!
