Not only the most famous Quickie Mart in the world.
But next to the original statue of Buddy Christ!
What can I say?
There are some amazing things outside of Lakewood!

That statue in front of the bearded guy in the yellow robe looks almost lifelike.

Looks like a bad mix of Jerry Garcia, Shrek, and King Kong Bundy.

A hint of Wilford Brimley.

Thanks for helping me with an ongoing debate I have been having with Mr. Slife.
All, I knew Lou Albano, he was a good man. I am no Lou Albano.
No crime in New York. This brand new Ford GT40 was sitting on the street running, with the doors unlocked. At over $100,000 and a 0 to 100 mph time that is breathtaking I was amazed. It sat the for the ten minutes we checked it out.
All in all I was very impressed with the difference betwenn New York of the 70s and now. The government really understand Safe, Clean, Fun and it is paying off big.

Jim, I'm impressed you could hold your pose long enough for the artist to depict you behind that dog.

I am equally impressed that you thought I was behind the dog and not the dog!

Today we headed south down the Jersey Shores to Asbury Park, Ocean Grove and other points. This included time at...
The Stone Pony which is where Bruce Springsteen was the house band for many years before being discovered, and...
The Wonder Bar which had the longest bar in the America, over 1.5 miles long, and was where Bruce Springsteen discovered Clarence Clemons "the Big Man."
