Then we actually saw the owner of the house and her daughter outside and asked her about the dog and she said she had not seen any stray dogs. She did not mention being a dog owner. We then went to the Neptune Police Department to see if they could do anything, but the officer behind the desk was not helpful in the least.

We have been by the house off and on all day and have posted flyers on poles surrounding the house. The house is on the corner of Heck and Myrtle and has a chain link fence around it, giving a good view into both front and back yards. We plan on continuing to drive by the house and post more flyers around it tomorrow and Friday. We might do a stake out -- the dog has to pee! If anybody can help us by driving by this house at any point in the next couple of days, we would be so grateful. Again we don't know for sure if this is her, or if there is a dog in that house at all, as we haven't seen her first hand.

Mario, No disrespect, but a picture, does not replace reality. There are red yield signs, on Rt. 33 West, making the dominant, county road, the yielder, instead of the inner circle, stopping, than proceeding with caution, traffic permitting. The flow west stops, causing a back up to Wyckoff Rd., where the traffic signal is. Imagine, approaching the Collingswood Cirle/roundabout, or whatever the latest trend, is. On the opposite eastbound lane, same thing! There's more traffic, going west and east than north and south, clogging up a main artery, which was tricky before this latest *uckup, if you pardon, the gutter language, but to a driver, it's scary as hell! You don't want to be rear-ended for YIELDING, nor do you want a left sided fender-bender, for the inside lane car, having the right of way! Either way, no matter which way you enter this roundabout mess, guaranteed to make a professinal driver wince, going around, will either end in a whew or an aw-shit, that was close, situation, if you manage to dodge the proverbial bullet! --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: In a message dated 11/24/2007 11:11:09 A.M.

It has always been the rule, that you yield to the left. The trouble is that most people don't understand that, nor do they really understand what yield means...you judge the pace of the traffic and proceed in matching that pace. Instead, people stop dead in a panic. One favorite example is the exit 88 Parkway Northbound entrance...holy hell that one is hairy and it's a simple merge that people can't negotiate. If people were competent drivers, circles would be a wonderful thing. The reality is, most people can't drive, they just aren't competent. Jughandles are a great invention, they don't allow people to do stupid things as easily. They can be annoying, but they serve the lowest common denominator very nicely. One thing I wish is that NJ would just have a standard and apply it uniformly. Now you have jughandles in some places, circles in others and fully signal controlled 'normal' intersections with turn lanes and direction signals. It's bad enough being a 'local' to these variations, people from out of the area have no hope. I've quit riding my motorcycle here, I've given up. The average driver is just so incompetent that it's not worth the risk to me. On Nov 25, 2007 2:12 PM, 2fine4u [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Mario, No disrespect, but a picture, does not replace reality.

When I first moved (back) to NJ, I asked someone about the jug handle thing and he told me the insurance companies lobbied for them because they were going broke paying for left hand turn accident claims.

All-too-common misapplications of Merge, Yield, and Stop Similarly at the western-most exit from Sea View Square Mall onto Asbury Avenue. Yes, a stop sign, but for the access lane which is separated with a solid line; not all lanes need to be clear. If people were competent drivers, circles would be a wonderful thing. The reality is, most people can't drive, they just aren't competent. Worst are those driving, but preoccupied with jabbering on their cell phones: my pet peeve. But I don't see it as just a Jersey thing. **Check out AOL's list of 2007's hottest products. (http://money.aol.com/special/hot-products-2007?NCID=aoltop000301)
Re: [AsburyPark] Re: A Shift, but for Some Drivers, a Vicious Circle - New Yo...
More recent fun has been to take the yield/merge lanes at intersections that have been yields for years and stick a stop sign in them. Intersection at Sears and Route 35 in Middletown is an example, the right onto Kings Highway from Rt 35 South is now a stop instead of a yield. It's happening a lot with the jughandles too, many that were a yield at the outflow are now a stop sign. Trouble is, many of them are angled so severely that once you stop, it's really difficult to actually look back to the left and see if anyone is now coming. Yahoo!

From _http://www.state.nj.us/mvc/pdf/Licenses/Driver%20Manual/Chapter_4.pdf_ (http://www.state.nj.us/mvc/pdf/Licenses/Driver%20Manual/Chapter_4.pdf) Circle Intersections There are not set rules for driving into, around and out of a traffic circle in New Jersey. Common sense and caution must prevail at all times. In most cases, the circle’s historically established traffic pattern dictates which driver has the right of way. If a major highway flows into and through the circle, traffic from that highway usually dominates the traffic flow pattern by commanding the right of way. Traffic control signs, such as stop or yield signs, at the entrance to the circle also govern which driver has the right of way. Never enter a traffic circle without first checking all signs and determining the intentions of motorists already in the traffic circle. If a motorist is in doubt concerning which vehicle has the right of way, exercise extreme caution and remember the basic rule governing uncontrolled intersections: The vehicle to the left shall yield the right of way to a vehicle approaching from the right.

[AsburyPark] Snynaxis Opening Monday
This Monday is the grand opening of Snyaxis formerly Red Fusion. They are a Mediterranean /Greek restaurant serving a very authentic fare. I had the pleasure of being a part of the private opening on Saturday and I was very pleased with the menu items that I tasted and the staff and management in general. Try it out and see if it is for you. They take reservation but you can also walk-in. I think the owner told me they will be closed on Tuesdays.
