 Hey, do know anyone that needs a bridge?  I have a nice one right
 between Queens and Brooklyn I'm looking to sell ;)  Or, if you
 prefer, I another on in the San Fran/Bay area!

Even though I was born in NYC, and worked in the financial district (which
is on the far south end), I can't claim to know too much about how the
boroughs work.  Nevertheless, I'm pretty sure that the bridge we're
talking about goes from Brooklyn to Manhattan.  ;-)  [That's why you see
all those pics of the WTC workers leaving on the Brooklyn Bridge.]

Okay, you're correct, I was speaking of that bridge and 
mis-identified the boroughs (or is it burroughs?).

However, I must now ask:

IS there a bridge which connects Queens and Brooklyn?

The BQE, as it's identified in traffic reports: The Brooklyn Queens
Expressway.  See http://www.nycroads.com/roads/brooklyn-queens/
NB: I know almost *nothing* about Brooklyn -- the last time I was there
was when I fell asleep on the subway and missed Wall St.; for all I know,
this road dumps cars straight into the East River.  But I do seem to
recall that this is probably the correct answer to your question.

So, I did accurately portray what I have for sale then :)

I could be mistaken, because I have only been to Long Island a few 
times, but IIRC Queens and Brooklyn are (for the most part) adjacent 
regions on the same chunk of rock.
