Random Travel Observation (TM)

Wandering about the streets of Newark yesterday, I suddenly realized: There are no tourists here.

A "Well, duh!" inducing moment, I know, but when you're used to being waist-deep in them, it's quite the novelty.

UPDATE: I should also note that after thinking it over and from something I saw let fall on teh blogs today, I am just about positive that I was on the same northbound train as Jonah Goldberg. In fact, I almost asked, but Real Life Robbo's Eleventh Commandment is Thou Shalt Not Make A Fool Of Thyself In Public, and I didn't want to risk an error.

Which is the same reason that when the oldest girl tripped over Glenn Reynolds laptop bag at a Knoxville Panera, I apologized and moved on without asking for an autograph or a blended puppy shake. One cannot get gushy over these things.
