    Gas prices are so high so let me spend $7k on a Geo instead

    $7300 for a 96 Geo?? yikes! even without the price of gas where it is I don't know if that makes sense. I'd love to find a Hybrid minivan for the family. haven't seen anyone make one yet. 4 kids and their stuff just about fit in the Grand Caravan and its whopping 18 mpg around town...

I have always thought privatizing state parks, or at least putting them in the hands of...

    Article about NJ parks closing due to budget cuts

    yes they are. I heard a poll yesterday that most New Jerseyans want cuts in spending. The reality is, they want cuts as long as it doesn't affect them. the executive branch has run amok. Governors and their appointees bring in their pals to fill positions, all fine and dandy until the end of...
