“Now why would they name a beach in California after a place in New York? Manhattan Beach! Talking about New York - did you know that Broadway runs along the entire length of Manhattan? Once Queens got connected to Manhattan by subways and such, it became Boomsville and the site of two World's Fairs. My sister and I roller skated in an exhibition at the New York Plaza of the World's Fair in 1939 -1 mean 1964-65! Really! We did a group number dressed up as the Beatles, and skated to the song 'I Wanna Hold Your Hand'! If you ask nicely and I find it, I can send you a picture to prove it!”

3) Proceed outbound on the LAX VOR “076” radial
