[AsburyPark] Re: AC - Asbury Park Parallels
Nice thought, but the thing about living here, is WE have to worry, since a 13M deficit, will result in loss of some services. I just hate it, when someone posts that we shouldn't worry about how Asbury Park looks, just fiddle while Rome burns, huh? If you don't live here, please keep your cheeky little criticism to yourself! If you want to visit, just visit and don't come down or up here, with a pen and pad, to note what you don't like about this town. It's bad enough, when we ourselves KNOW what SHOULD have been done, was illegal to have been done, taking liberties with property you DON'T own, just because you developed a portion of the City. Nobody elected YOU, Mr. Developer, so please heed the laws like everybody else! Some of us DO frequent the restaurants, shops and what have you, but there are those who just can't afford the high priced drinks and what passes for food! I'm not one of them, but I sometimes feel like I'm being fleeced at the door, so I go elsewhere! A woman's perogative. Some of you snotty nosed, corporate types, won't be able to afford it either when you retire! No, I don't go to those early bird senior places, yet! I found myself in a modest priced restaurant one day and the waitress asked , do you want the senior special? I looked puzzled at my spouse, wondering what the waitress was talking about, then she realized, I didn't either and explained that on Wednesday, Seniors get a discount! Yep, it was Wednesday and I didn't know these deals existed! I began paying attention in restaurants since my hair IS gray! I hadn't really thought of myself as a Senior until that moment. Oh well! Anyway, Asbury Park USED to be affordable to any income. It no longer is, so for those of us who have 10 plus years invested in calling this place, home, I hope you see the point I'm making. If AP keeps pricing out long-timers, the economy will force many of us to leave and then you bottomless pits of money can have the place, to yourself! So what happened to the 1st Ave. Pavilion, that USED to be the Senior Center? Inquiring minds want to know! --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, marioa...@... wrote: And if you can't afford any art, try some coffee at Asbury Park Roastery.

The unions are the reason Obama is in office you will see how much he throws thbeir way when he is in office. Don't expect any change he has all insiders in his administration. He will be a little lighter in the wallet Blago got caught selling his Senate seat no cut for him. There was always a lot of crime by those left behind becauee they are owed, they are entitled. This is true even when the economy is good. Haven't read anything on this board about those that were left behind that were mugging people in AP during the black out. The greedy were stung by Madoff. He will be sorry the people he crossed will kill him. You don't like Condi Rice because she can speak English and can complete a sentence without throwing an Ax or a duh in there. The same is true of Colin Powell neither of which you can hold a candle. Maybe Bush should have selected Fat Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson they would have represented the US much better. Maybe Jesse Jackson Jr could have bought the seat like he tried to do in Chicago. Yes indeed people elected Obama because of his vast experience after all he was a communite organizer. All I can say is I hope some of you, or your families, cross paths with the people that are released from Gitmo. Probably the last thing you will see before the end. America is all about money. Work on getting some instead of whining about it. When Obama is president who will you complain about? Blacks are the only minority in the country just ask them. That one way ticket is still here waiting. How about Africa? They don't care if you are black there they will kill you anyway. Still hating the country.

There's a LOT of crime, committed by those who feel left behind! Those of us who aren't overtaken by the false images are the conscience of a country and government run amok, which is why Obama won the election. The American people aren't asleep because we voted with our feet. As far as extraordinary thinking, thank Bush for thinking that he can run a country on less taxes for the rich, okay? That's why 750 Billion was given away to Wall St. and the industry that could use some help was told to go to hell! Bush is still running amok, giving part of the 750B to the auto industry! All of the positions HE gave, were to his friends who had NO expertise for the agencies they were hired to run! Ask Condi Rice! She can play a MEAN piano, but has NO expertise in the State Department! She's too busy proving that she's worthy! Same for the singing Attorney General from Missouri, who placed drapes over statues he found to be racy in the Halls of Justice, or the short Alberto Gonzalez who thought it to be perfectly normal to torture prisoners at Abu Graib and Gitmo! No dear, Bush executed a smooth coup d'etat, when he took office, thanks to his father, the former head of the CIA and the Carlyle Group, okay? He couldn't do it for himself, but he sure gave Junior what he wanted, so appearances aren't what they seem. The Bushes set about to destroy any semblance of a democracy here and in the Middle East, by occupying countries they deemed to be THEIR Manifest Destiny! It's what entitlement is all about!

I'm not surprised you don't get my ramblings. I was responding to Jack. He regularly expresses concern about materialism/over consumption and the like. Commodity Fetishism is a term coined by Marx to describe a part of the behavior that seems to concern Jack. It was helpful to me to read about it so I wanted to share it with him. Great thinkers, different ideas often shed light on issues. Carl Jung gives me some comfort, Paul Krugman...I like to share. yes, I regularly have fun. I enjoyed a little of the Cameo last night a little of Paradise. Sometimes I don't have fun. Often the day is filled with the ordinary concerns of feeding, clothing and sheltering myself. yeah i should probably pay more attention, though i don't care about the time lines, AP continues to get more beautiful all the time. The lights are really pretty right now. i would care about gross malfeasance, which may or may not be happening. its jersey after all. its the US after all. the entire planet is in debt so 13 million in AP isn't going to make me lose sleep. i'm not gonna freak over the budget when few others seem to be. did you read it? The things that have concerned me have been the community. the lower income people. Is there enough care and reverence for them. I have learned that there is a huge amount of community care in this town. I feel pretty confident that someone doing the best that they can with shitty circumstances is cared for here. Is that care the best it could be? probably not. Our entire approach toward social justice could use a revolution. I loathe the help approach, I think people help others so that they can feel better about themselves as opposed to seeing others as ourselves. its a big question, how best do we serve. you could have a lengthy series of discussions on it, which I would love. I am still fantasizing about idea festivals. I just care about different things than you. and I am in love with AP. Maybe you have difficulty with love. Maybe your sad because you don't love your town. Like one of those people in a passionless relationship enviously watching a juicy couple dig one another. AP is the hot couple. You and your town appear to be loveless. yeah we have our issues and you and your mystery town have yours. i don't actually think you are a genuine person coming from a genuine place. some kind of schemer stoking shit perhaps. who knows. im gonna get back to lovin the town i live in. warts and all. thats what love is newbee. and the world could could use lots more of it. --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, New Beetoap newbeet...@... wrote: So..., Have you asked any questions lately?

Re: [AsburyPark] Re: AC - Asbury Park Parallels
The hits just keep on coming. I wonder what the guy in the Mercedes is doing these days? What makes you think that if you have money you don't question anything? If you want to keep it you better question everything! Americans have become very lazy and relationships require work. A computer you can turn on and off.

Isn't this a symptom of a cultures reliance on a consumer mentality? America is all about money. We worship it more then we worship our own history. It also may be the case that American's care less about historic buildings then they used to because our entertainment choices are moving more toward passive stay at home thing. Our youth is happier online then in the real world. I saw results from a poll yesterday that showed about half of us would rather give up sex then the internet. I recently got the current issue of Weird NJ and there was a depressing article about the current fate of Waterloo Village, which is very similar to Allaire State Park. It's currently rotting away and abandoned since last year, because of NJ budget cuts. --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, wernerapnj wernera...@... wrote: Demolition of cultural and historic sites in the name of Redevelopment. 2008 NJ Endangered Historic Site: http://tinyurl.com/6ywp8n To be demolished: http://tinyurl.com/5z79l3 Werner Yahoo!

Once they make the road WIDER further cutting off /east /west access, they'll hire new consultants to come up with a plan to make it safer to cross - like making it narrower. Lots of money in the fund that has to be spent otherwise the casinos will be asking for it back.
