At least it's prompting debate.

Ugh. That belonged in the weird news thread. Mom looks hideous, and I say that not usually caring what people look like and never clicking on links to anyone's booking mugshot. But that link is almost not safe for work. You should be neg-repped. Oh wait, we don't have that functionality anymore, so I'll have to go with Thumbs Down Guy:

Apparently, you've never seen the Flyers play.

My old dentist's office is about 150 feet away from there!

So much for airport security vetting:

This is awesome. Well done.

I love the little touches. When Booker catches the baby he Tebows with it.

AG news source, for all the fun & games.

That's depressing reading.

This is discouraging to see.

"A lot of the details have not been worked out," he said. "But Roche has a rich, long legacy in New Jersey and is committed to Clifton and Nutley and this part of New Jersey. That commitment is unwavering today and in the future."

I think they once employed 10,000 at the Nutley campus. Pharma jobs have been moving at a rapid rate OUT of NJ

Last night Jon Stewart ran a segment on Christie's declarations as pro-gambling and anti-pot.. It was hilarious... Can't get it from my office computer...

Yeah, but will Christie get up and make a statement such as "screw them, we don't need them if they don't want to be here."

A few friends & family among them. It was a massive complex. Handwriting has been on the wall, for a few years.
