Sounds good? Are you serious? More Italian? As if we don't have enough Italian at the Jersey Shore. If another italian restaurant opens around here I'm going to wack myself! Try a care-ful re-read. My tone was not breathlessly "excited." That's reserved for private moments. I said "sounds good" as it should, coming from an official city update. But I was looking for more details from this group, hoping, for instance, that a "building construction supply co" would not be any of those box chains. No need to "whack" yourself. "An Italian market" ain't an Italian restaurant. I was hoping to drop bucks here, instead of at "Taste of Italy," Nino's, Sal's, et al. when looking for some take-out like mama used to make or imported prosciutto, provolone, etc. NYC's Balducci's was great when it remained in family hands; then they sold out. Actually, Wegmans does a good job stocking quality imports, but a small "market" in AP within walking distance would be great. Look for "DOP": "product of'" not "imported from." End of today's lesson on reading and Italian markets. [EMAIL PROTECTED] (mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]) also wrote: Very sad that people like Mario .... "People like Mario," (a.k.a. "Machinegun Message Mario," "clown," "Feste") are fortunate enough to have expendable income, and we'd rather drop it in Asbury Park than elsewhere. Not so sad. It was sad when long-time residents like me had to leave town to buy much of anything, and people would ask, "Why do you live there?" Now they still say, "I should've bought there"! Am I serious? Would I kid you, Joe or Jason? ************************************** See what's new at http://www.aol.com
