1. The traffic along Dallas Road moves at a snail's pace which clogs up the works not unlike the frigging zebra mussels!
2. Diesel fuel fumes add a certain "je ne sais quoi" fragrance to the air.
3. Oodles of foreigners feed the "starving" seagulls while the rats go hungry!
4. Herds of tourists, sporting humongous ID badges dangling from their chests, parade in single file along Oswego Street.
5. Blue fumes emanating from tour buses compete with hot air from the legislature.
6. Happy, helmeted Vespa vistors (aka bats out of hell) appear out of nowhere.
7. A slightly confused soul stops and asks you, "which way to the drugstore?"
8. A gigantic gaggle of gigglers gather at "Mile Zero" for a photo op or an impromptu sing-along version of "Koom-Bay-Ya".
9. Locals have to dodge the new piles of horse-apples on the roads.
10. Three long blasts on a horrid horn tend to break the solemnity of the cool midnight air, shake residents out of their comfy beds, and wake up the darn dogs if not send the cats scurrying beneath the sheets for cover!
