When I first started to ride around the system, a few times I did it with friends. Actually, that time it was probably before I was 13 or 14. We told my mother we were walking to the movie theater in Ridgewood to see a movie. Instead, we hopped on the subway and rode the M to the L to the G to Forest Hills and saw the movie at the Midway Theater at Continental Ave. On the way back we took the E to the A train, the A to East New York, and then the J to the M. We were perhaps 11 or 12, and my mother would probably have killed me had she known we were "alone" on the subway, and in Bushwick and East New York no less!! Especially considering what both of those neighborhoods were like in the early and mid 80's. |
