Things I Think I Think

Just some musings and observations about 'the World' from a semi-fanatic.

  1. Luna Park Pool Closed

    Live from the Boardwalk Resort... We swam at Luna Park pool yesterday but the Keister Coaster slide was closed (it was supposed to be refurbed in February).

We'll head over to Stormalong Bay but it will probably increase the crowds there - especially if it hits 89 degrees today as expected..

    I know a lot of folks like the longer lead time but I, for one, do not. Six months in advance, park hours are not there or very suspect and I have much less of an idea of where I'll be or what (or where) I want to eat.

    Personally, I'd prefer it be same-day ...

  5. Yogi Lives!

    To misquote Mark Twain, "The report of Yogi's death was greatly exaggerated".

    For the many, many helpful readers that emailed me to call attention to the line in my recent column (A Fantasmic! Fiasco) that referred to the "late Lawrence 'Yogi' Berra", I thank you. As we all know, Yogi is alive and well and living in New Jersey. Trust me, as a life-long Yankees fan, I knew that.
