Now Hoboken Voyager

The famous Whitman quote that resonates with the promise of discovery is not just for classic Betty Grable flicks, it promotes the fun of ferrying across the Hudson to cutting edge, exciting and full of wonder Hoboken. See, the beautiful metrosexual but apparently heterosexual couple, hipsters for sure but with good jobs and solid, upstanding consumerist values. Reinventing the Commute – have New York City at your back, a pretty gal next to you on a rail and an expensive watch on your wrist, of if you’re a woman take the ferry and you will meet the man of your dreams, wearing designer sunglasses and an expensive watch, standing right there next to you where you can lean together on the rail. The big apple is behind you, the weather is always warm and sunny, especially on the waterfront. Return home to Hoboken were not only all your dreams will come true, but the special discoveries only available in the birthplace of Sinatra will all be yours. Just look at all the exciting events in Hoboken that are to be held, there, right there, see... on the right hand side of the couple you wish to be. Holy God, it’s Blank! BLANK! Nothingness! That’s the Hoboken dream for you, that’s how the commute has been re-invented. You will no longer exist! This ferry does not travel from riverbank to the other side then back again. The river the Hoboken Ferry crosses is the voyage from existence into the void. Take the PATH, it’s safer. Abandon your yuppie dreams, Now Voyager, unless you prefer the reality of non-reality!
