Hurrican Sandy My family and I are grateful for being safe after the tragic hurricane that has destroyed Rockaway as well as other beach communities. In retrospect we consider ourselves very lucky and will overcome any losses that we have suffered. I have written a memior of that night, and the kids are going to write about the remarkable and uplifting days that followed the Hurricane. Click here for the first installment which describes our night during the hurricane. |

Our wedding song, by Jorma off the Quah album
Flying Clouds I’m singing everybody knows it’s true The way I feel ‘bout you Got no mind for wasting time Feeling like I do Now I feel like only smiling And living by your side Our course is clear We see it here There’s no more lonesome rides Heading for our destination The past is out of sight Yours eyes in mine Their fires entwine We’ve finally seen the light I’m singing everybody knows it’s true The way I feel ‘bout you Got no mind for wasting time Feeling like I do Heading for the sunshine country Going with the wind The love we know Can’t help but grow As life comes rolling in As life comes rolling in |

Stop the Presses! Shed Expansion Project
Near Completion Without Necessary Permits! Under the cover of darkness the illegal Shed Expansion Project has been ongoing despite a stop work order from the Racos Administration. Frank "Cement Head" Murphy has denied any knowledge of the construction, or the need for an environmental impact study. When questioned Muphy was quoted as saying, "how about I impact your head Sica." The work site, a former nesting area for the endangered Piping Plover, has been shut down since the Jets lost to the Colts in late January. Murphy said the plans were to build the SJ Memorial Cultural Center, and was made possible by a grant from SSI in the name of Sloppy Joe Marino. click here for more stories and pictures. |
