[QUOTE="taitzu52, post: 2481242, member: 21465"] Jim Poole steps off of the train into the bustle of Grand Central Station, not for the first time. It has been quite a while since he has come to New York, and as before things change quickly in this town. He collects his trunk from the baggage car, and calls over a valet. "I'm headed to the Amherst hotel." he says straight to the man, his Midwest accent coming through all too easily. The colored man replies that there are cabs on the ground level, and proceeds to wheel Jim's trunk up the platform, and out to the main plaza. Again, it is a throng of people, each with their own agenda, each with a meeting to get to, a lover to greet, or a train to catch. Jim Poole just smiles a bit and follows the man out onto the street. New York has changed a bit. A lot more automobiles are on the street now. So many in fact, that they rent themselves out as taxi services, like the coaches a few years back. Some are so bold as to advertise their services in bold colors emblazoned on the side of their autos. [i]Henry Ford must be bendin' his britches over this[/i], Jim thinks, seeing cars that are a color other than black for the first time. The valet loads his trunk in an auto, and he tips the man some coin. In a thick Eastern European, perhaps Jewish accent, the cabbie turns and asks, "Where to, buddy?" Jim smiles as he sits back, and says, "Amherst Hotel." He cab takes off like a bat out of hell, and after one of the wildest rides in Jim Poole's life, he pulls up outside the Hotel lobby. A bellhop retrieves the trunk engraved [FONT=Century Gothic][b]J.R.P.[/b][/FONT] from the back, and with the clink of some coins, the taxi tears off again. Jim steps into the grand lobby, and approaches the front desk. "Afternoon." he says, taking off his hat. "My name's James Poole. I believe I'm expected?" [/QUOTE]
