At the post office in New Jersey, the guy behind the counter sees the return address on my package and proudly tells me he's an Italian American from Brooklyn. He looks around the room, leans toward me so no one should hear, and in a thick NY accent he whispers, "I like livin' here," he says, "Ya know, it's clean, it's nice for the kids etc., but New York? Over there even the STUPID people are smart!"
