Me: Yes I am squirrel how can i help you?
ST: Well we are having a blood drive at the Main Place mall (in Big town)
Me: I am sorry that is two hours away from where i live

ST: Is it always 2 hours away?

Maybe she was thinking of traffic?? I hear in certain parts of NY a ten minute drive can take an hour at the right time of day. Does the Red Cross really make calls that late at night? sounds a little fishy.

Yeah the vampires can call up to 9pm since a lot of ppl aren't available at work and hate leaving messages for some reason

as for traffic, in the "big city" *coughBuffalocough* traffic jams are usually a 10 min delay.

Ah. I'm sorry Squirrel. I'm from little ol' Utah, What I know of New York state is limited to The Statue of Liberty, GTA, and what I see on the news. I've been forced to conclude that anything outside of NYC is forgotten and unloved.

NYC and LA combine to form the capitol of the world. The rest of us are just accessories... like little dogs in oversized purses.

Maybe she meant to ask if that was including traffic conditions? I wouldn't consider it terribly sucky.

I know, right? Mind you, Albany isn't exactly the most exciting place on the planet.

Actually, The Statue of Liberty is property of the *snerk* great state *snerk* of New Jersey.
