	♥ 7:11pm Gary: Henry and WR! That show was largely focused on 1930s to mid-20th Century; this show is mid-20th Century to more-or-less present

	🇰🇷 ♥ 8:11pm Ike: Hi! I love Flushing but I don’t get out there very often. Only made it to Flushing Mall a few times. On my last visit a few weeks ago, I was glad to see that the New World Mall food court was recovering and that the New York food court on Roosevelt was doing OK.
