First NYC disappointment: Empire State Building. Even as tourist traps go, it's a painful tourist-trap experiience. I'd recommend avoiding.

I like to compare air travel to boot camp. Let's see: carry heavy loads, be ready to sprint randomly, food and water depravation. Yup, works

Like Honda Insight's "leaf-ometer" that tells me how green my driving style is, but I seem to consistently hit a wall after 1 row of leaves.
