that would have been scary, i agree. but nothing other than cookman changed? that's a gross exaggeration. the change to the whole place in the last four years is immense. i don't think wanting a cleaner place is bad, i just wonder about people who move to a place wanting it to be different than it is. kinda stupid i think. i moved here knowing what it is, accepting it and loving it.
yeah i am more concerned about having cameras on loffredo, bruno, saunders, johnson, and MY favorite wackjob..zyla, you can throw in the russell character, than some crack buyer and purchaser behind some shady store that no one with insight and intelligence would visit. --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, Gary Wien <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I haven't been mugged or victim of a violent crime myself (been > coming to Asbury since '76 or so) but I have had the pleasant > experience of having several bottles thrown at my car by a group of > kids on a street corner one night within the last two years.
