    Original Burlington County Courthouse

    It was not in Mount Holly, but in Burlington(the original county seat) At the corner of Broad and High Streets. I shot some tape of all four corners yesterday, but does anyone know upon which corner it stood? It was built in 1693, by 1795 it was so dilapidated the county freeholders refused...

    Sunrise Affordable Homes?

    good advice. Our builder came highly reccomended by out realtor (I do business with her husband on a regular basis) she no longer reccomends him. I believe he bit off more than he could chew and got taken by the buidling boom. Still, he could have done a better job than he did.

    There are a number of Modular builders in the Scranton area, many near Lancaster (employing many Amish carpenters) and several in the Williamsport, Muncy area. (I've heard Contempri is one to avoid, no specifics were given or I just don't remember them) Shorten Homes has some nice models and...

    Governor Corzine Crashes the Pines...Literally

    What I heard was the red vehicle (no one seems to know if it was a car, truck or small suv) cut off a white vehicle, which the trooper then tried to avoid. Governor was not wearing a seatbelt, and any guesses at how fast the motorcade was travelling? or will that question never be answered...

    Man finds ancient cannonball on shore of Toms River.

    I loved reading the comments about it.... headline:"washes up.." article: buried in 2 feet of sand" I guess they missed the class in college about reading the article before you write the headline.

    Centralia

    That was a Bizzare movie, I can remember Ackroyd's character rolling over in bed and firing a few off... and the "things" that lived out in the "yard" were just freaky. I was in Centralia back in the 80's when I worked in TV news, that too is kinda bizzare.
