Loisaida is a term derived from the Latino (and especially Puerto Rican) pronunciation of "Lower East Side", a neighborhood in Manhattan, New York City. Loisaida Avenue is now an alternate name for Avenue C in the Alphabet City neighborhood of New York City, whose population has largely been Hispanic (mainly Puerto Rican) since the late 1960s.

On the Flight from Dubai to New York...
...they served Gefilte Fish.
I landed in New York, sailed through customs, and then took a connector jet down to Dulles, where I was picked up by a morbidly obese taxi driver.
I hadn't seen anyone obese in two weeks.
As the sun set, we drove to Winchester, Virginia in a mini-van with broken air conditioning.
