Nov.04.2009 Good Luck, Mr. Christie. We're All Counting On You. I'm proud of my fellow New Jerseyans today. Congratulations to Chris Christie on winning the gubernatorial race (alas, it will be quite some time before I get to use 'gubernatorial' as much as I have in recent days...). Anyway, we'll get back to Chris Christie in a moment. I want to temper my pride...	Nov.02.2009 Vote Early, Vote Often (OK, Just Kidding About the Often Part) November 2. Day of the Dead in Mexico. While that sounds creepy and may invoke images of restless spirits, vengeful poltergeists, animated skeletons and lumbering zombies, the reality is that all that occurs on the Day of the Dead is that dead people are entitled to a free dessert at Applebees....
Oct.30.2009 Fantasy or Reality? Jon Corzine, Nancy Pelosi, and Slutty Halloween Costumes I'm going to borrow a format from one of my favorite fantasy football weekly articles and use it for politics and current events. The format is called Fantasy/Reality. The gist is, I take a statement of conventional wisdom and describe why it's either fantasy or reality. Simple, right? Ok, let's go...	Sep.21.2009 New Jersey and You: Flawed Together So, the Giants won week 2 last night at the Dallas Cowboys' debut of their new billion dollar stadium. All is right with the world. At least that's what you think until you stumble upon something like McDowell Mountain Ranch Real Estate and realize, wow, there is a simpler world out there than the...
Sep.18.2009 Come On Guys, Could You Vague This Up a Little For Us? - The NJ Governor's Race It was just a few days ago when I said I regretted never learning how to play piano, and now I find myself online finding sites that will help me learn piano chords, how to improvise without sheet music, and how to properly flip your tuxedo tails before sitting on the bench. The last is trickier...	Jul.17.2009 You Want the Truth? You Can't Handle the Truth. I'm going to say this and it's going to shock some of you. Others will not be surprised and, in fact, will say, "Well, yeah. We've been saying that all along." Ready? Obama has lied to you. Period. Let me ease you into this. Let's start with a small blatant lie before we get to the biggie...
Jul.13.2009 NJ's F.R.A.U.D. Volume 2 - Yes, Governor, That Means You. Welcome to the second edition of F.R.A.U.D., recently re-named to stand for "Frequent Reminders About the Ultimate Douchebag". Now, for those of you who do not like my use of the term "douchebag", please be advised it was the tamest of the options I had come up with. Also, it...	Jun.26.2009 Maybe the Amish Have it Right Wait, did something happen to Michael Jackson? Of course, I'm kidding. I know he's going on tour. What? Something ELSE happened? Really?? I hadn't heard. Well, this makes for a great distraction from Pelosi rushing through a vote on the 1200 page cap and tax program that Congress had a whole 24...
