Shoretalken: If You Will It, It Is No Dream
· Hi, it’s 19 degrees out. But guess what? Only 105 days until Memorial Day. It’s time for some Shoretalken. Start thinking about what your favorite Shore town is, and then vote. The winning town sees rentals go through the roof, asshole infestations in every beach and bar, and 50% more likelihood that you could, in a more unguarded moment get slimed by John Bolaris or Pat Burrell there some time in late August. Remember: It’s 19 degrees outside. You should be so lucky. [KYW]
· As I write this, I’m wearing UPCAKE EARMUFFS. Go ahead, baby, stick your tongue in my ear. Sorry. I just channeled Bolaris. [DownTheShoreWithJen]
· Let me make it up to you, ‘cos I’m a big spender. V-Day weekend at the Congress Hall on winter special. I will love the Zelda Fitzgerald out of you. [CongressHall]

Maybe it’s my tendency to love on the underdog, but give me Asbury Park any day.
Many, many fewer kids, lots o’ the gays, and cheap, plentiful bars.

BTW: Damn good shell hunting this time of year. Channeled whelks and cat’s eye snails galore.
