During the war years, while I was in grammar school (St. Mary’s), all the fellows were in the service, and the Men’s Guild evolved into the Junior Guild.

Football players continue with relief efforts in New Jersey

Ewing, NJ … Outdoor holiday lights mean a little more this year than in seasons’ past. While they are symbolic of celebration and festivity throughout the country, they are also an indication of something even more essential in the state of New Jersey – power.

It has been six weeks since Hurricane Sandy touched ground and ravaged communities in the tri-state area. Normalcy has been restored for most New Jersey residents, but for many, the road to recovery continues to be long and arduous.

Obama Won… Don\’t Complain

source Project 21 December 7, 2012

by Bob Parks 

 

Obama\’s victory means four more years with no hope or change.

When I think about what the future offers, it reminds me of the last thing I said during my closing remarks at a 2008 debate for state representative in Massachusetts. I said: \”If you like the way things are, vote for the incumbent… and don\’t complain.\”

Liberals, you got what you wanted — and there\’s no doubt that Obama\’s friends in the media properly informed you.

Gloat… and don\’t complain.
