There are some nice family Italian restaurants in Bayonne, or there were
the last time I was there.

All I know is a guy I knew from Nutley - Joe Cafone - used to say,
"What - you from Bayonne or sumptin'?"
It wasn't a compliment.

6. Bait Nancy Pelosi Certainly attracts the sharks.
7. Shingle Maker Harry Reid Looks like he has shingles so he may be the expert

Well thought out, Admiral.
Might get them past Sanibel, if they leave at first light.
Wish I could see them off.
Oh, forgot to mention the boat's name.
Mary Celeste. It's just sorta nice.

I'd take Sarah, leave everyone else in Ft Myers, and teach her Intra
Coastal navigation on the off watch.

PS, those Chrysler gas engines are going to drink a lot, especially if
we get lost and take a wrong turn towards the Bahamas. Please send
one or two a fully loaded credit cards.

No where did he say the food was any good. He just said the restaurant
was nice. I wonder what he means by nice?

If I was in Ft Myers, I would head south to the Keys or the Bahamas. I
can't imagine any reason to head north to any sort of sewer like NJ. I
wouldn't take any politicians, because I would like to have friends of
integrity accompany me. I *certainly* wouldn't take any trashy Jerry
Springer folks like Sarah Palin or loud-mouthed blowhards like Bill
O'Reilly.

I'd probably start selecting my crew from those folks at Bahia Mar
Marina in Fort Lauderdale. *I think slip F-18 *would be a good place
to start.... there are a lot of neat folks that hang out on that house
boat that *would* make an extended cruise a lot of fun.......

So, you would take Pelosi over Palin, and Olbermann over O'Rielly? A
corpse and a panty waste over a "living woman" and a real man?

Wow!?
