    Nick will you forgive me if I stayed at the Surf Club when I was a youngster and partied there in my high school days? My excuse is that my Dad was was best friends with the owner. Please forgive?

    Yes, you are forgiven ... if and only if none of your friends have an Italian flag on the back of their cars.

    And I'm probably no better since I worked two summers at Water Works.

    No way (that's the Bloomfield area anywho). I guess I'm forgiven.

    And you're forgiven for wroking at WW.

    Gotta love the snow condition forum ... where Jersey people come together to admit their nefarious Jersey connections and a group hug ensues.

    When we say Water Works, are we talking Seaside Heights Water Works???


    <cough, cough.. and Sussex County... cough, cough>

    I'd be intrigued to hear the North Haledon connections though.. good friend from college haled (ha) from there.. graduated HS 1994...

    Yes, the Water Works of SH. First summer was fun - 18 and getting hit on by 16 y/o's. Second summer was equally great but it was instead 12 y/o's and that got old after a few minutes. Also, about 95&#37; of the patrons didn't speak English so when I was manning the slide and told them to wait, they would jump in 10 at a time and snap someone's neck. Good times.


    I also did some time at Jenks the Bar. That was crazy fun.




    And since this is a NJ thread .... I'll be in Montclair tonight for drinks for all interested parties.

    Working at WW sounds quite like working at Action Park. Ahhh... summers past.

    Dang, was up in Montclair last night looking at a condo in the hood. You should have heard Aldo's message.

    Hey, so did you go look at that place? Umm... I'd make sure I got to know the area first before... well, it might.. well... you reall don't want to be there... Needless to say, not putting a bid in!

    How long you in town?

    Montclair is a great place to live. Good mix of people and culture ... probably the best of its kind in NJ.

    I'll be in town until late Sunday.

    Depends on the area. I went to TSC so can comment that Trenton is indeed an armpit... Hamilton/Ewing/Lawrence are the proverbial tracks.... and if you lived on the other side of those bounds, then it wasn't necessarily that bad!

    couldn't agree with you more, but I gave up trying to tell that to anyone not living in the area...

    My main gripe is how boring it is. Until it snows, that is. Then I drive out of town.

    I had to wiki him to find out who he was...but yeah, I got out in '80 - as soon as I could hitchhike west.

    Michigan? I think that's one of the few states that even people from Jersey bust on!

    (hope school is going well)

    And NorCascader... wazzzzzup?

    Rainy and foggy here today - - pushing away to hot and humid (?!?) in the afternoon. I anticipate this is going to be one of those years where it is mild, mild, mild, mild and then WHAM winter hits ya.
