holy crap what did you get charged with?
Were you at a private or charter school? Since otherwise, it'd take forever with the NJEA protecting you.

Rickels was the worst. We had a store near us, the joke was that as soon as an employee knew their department, they moved them to a new one. They deserved to go out of business.

I think they had yellow carts for getting wood and my father called them banana boats.

I worked there in the 1970s. Had to close off the lumber department on Sunday due to blue laws.

They grow pretty slow. Same height since I first saw them in 1974. Not enough fertilizer.

Snakes are common throughout most of new jersey. Even urban areas will have snakes in parks and wooded areas.

I remember when Home Depot moved in to our area, Channel Home Centers lost a lot of their business. Rickels then bought all the Channel locations. It seemed only a few months passed and Rickels had going out of business sales. It was sad that Godzilla stomped on the little guy.

Reply to comment by wasitme317 in Safely getting to new jersey from JFK late at night by [deleted]
Not true. An Uber with a NYC TLC plate can pick up drivers in Jersey, but Jersey drivers can no longer pick up in NYC without a TLC. I've gotten NYC TLC drivers MANY times. I once got picked up in Jersey by a TLC going to JFK and the driver explained the rules to me during the hour car ride. I used to live in Jersey right outside the Lincoln Tunnel and have had many TLC Ubers out in that area. I sometimes get them now out in the suburbs about 45 minutes from Manhattan, 30 minutes from Brooklyn, and 8 minutes from Staten Island.

This.
I have a friend flying in from the EU soon, and I told them to fly in and out of EWR. They wanted JFK because of the price, but I wouldn't be able to pick them up from JFK and told them so, many times.
They coming into EWR.

Cat problem, not possible. You simply have potential friends and companions.

Reply to comment by EntranceMoney7855 in How did Clark get to become the most racist town in New Jersey? by dowagiacmichigan
Yup. My answer to OP was going to point out the “mostly old school Italian American” population of Clark. My ex’s stepfamily is from Clark and, more than once, I’ve heard at the dinner table references to the neighborhood potentially “changing”. Can’t imagine the convos when I wasn’t around.
