I live and work in New York. Though, the beaches around Narragansett, Rhode Island are among my favorite other places to be.
I also really like metaphors. Here's one I made up: "A fish on the hook isn't the same as one in the boat."
As for coffee, I get beans from the Black Cow, brew it, chill it, and pour it over ice--black. Also check out my pages on Digg and Reddit.
