OMNI NJ TOURISM REPORT: Newark actually has a few things going for it, good Spanish/Portugese food (which I'll enjoy friday with my accountant and friend, Frank) the NJ Performing Arts Center, several hotels to crash, The Budweiser Brewery on the highway. And if want to get out you can go to
NYC ro the Meadowlands or Atlantic City (not my can of Pepsi though.)
Trenton's a capital and went there once and did that.
Camden has the Aquarium and Campbell's SOup.
It's second in Jerzee party towns.
But the ulltimate party towns:
2. HOboken and the bar and club scene.
1. Jersey City, where the signs read "Proud to be the home of the World Famous and well loved... CATMAN."

I meant for YOU to see the Vet, not YAZ & EDDIE.
You meant to say "HOME of a few thousand happy people and a few Soreheads like Catman."

Well...
Say what you want about Jerzee. Don't forget I'm originally a Brooklyn boy, so I've passed on my share of NJ Jokes.
But, my town is the home of the only five diamond Hilton for quite a distance, the only mall in America that doesn't look like every other mall, the #1 high school in America, the #3 school district in the state, a commuter rail that gets me into Manhattan's Penn Station in 40 minutes, and enough squirrels rabbits and deer to make me forget about civilization for a while.
Not to mention a 10 minute drive from the dreaded yet handy EWR.
Then again, I'm not one to brag.

In reply to MileKing's post - TWA and its evil spawn, TWE, play that lame routine ALL THE TIME - your flight is mysteriously canceled only to find that the next flight to your destination was underbooked - total malarkey!!!!!! Maybe the new regulations proposed by Senators McCain et al will put an end to this!!!!

OMNI: NJD -- you wouldn't be related to one of my customers in NH? I received a long missive about the joys of NH yesterday -- quite similar to your extolling the joys of NJ...
My reply:
I play golf. In January. In shorts.

Thanks, NJD--The Hilton Short Hills looks impressive, but it's still not in Jerzee City. I am pleased that y'all have something like the SHHH and so close to EWR. The next time I am FORCED to spend the night at EWR, I will go to the SHHH.
