What’s your favorite workout dvd?

I like Dance it Off (Jennifer Galardi), Winsor Pilates, and New York City Ballet Workout II.

What are the truly sensational and cheap SECRET treasures for a New York City adventure?

I’m a Midwest transplant in Texas. I absolutely adore NYC and have done the tourist thing. Empire State Building, Natural History museum, Chinatown, Macy’s etc. I’ll be staying at the Times Square Marriot for a week which will take up my life savings. I want to be right in the middle of things. What is the best use of my time? I’m 55 and my son is 19. A poetry reading? A gallery opening? The pickle vendor? Argue with a taxi driver? Tai Chi in Central Park? I want to feel like a true New Yorker for one week. How can I feel the true spirit and essence of New York on a budget?
