Mom & dad were married in NYC, worked in Manhatten and lived in Brooklyn.Mom was pregnant with me and my dad got a new job at Newark Airport and they moved to Newark, New Jersey and I was born at Beth Israel Hospital in Newark, and I am not even Jewish. Having left New Jersey as a pre teen and moving to California with my mother I never was in Brooklyn or New Jersey long enough to aquire the accent of either of those cities for which I and others have been most grateful. :wah:

Gee lon, I had my chemotherapy at New York Methodist (in Brooklyn) & I'm not Methodist! Go Figga (that's written in Brooklynese).

Wow - I was born at Dartford General Hospital - and I'm not a General.

OK if we are being silly.....I was born at The Woolwich Hospital for Mothers and Babies, and I am neither either.

Ah, but you WERE one of them at the time - therefore you passed the entrance exam.

Well the amazing thing for me is that I escaped being circumsized for which I am most grateful,. though born in a Jewish Hospital

You're kidding right? That can't be performed without parental consent, so it's your mom & dad who should be thanked!

These days it's all down to the cutbacks.
