    Bird ID

    This little girl walked up to my wife and kids at the bus stop today. It was not afraid of them at all. That's the curb next to it for size.

    Deal struck to hike NJ gas tax 23 cents

    My work car is a VW Golf wagon. We have a fleet of 5 VW diesels and are dealing with that whole mess. We should fare well with this buy out though. Most are well over 200k miles.

    Young child drowns in Lake Absegami

    Those scenes never leave the memory I still have dreams from past calls that heavily impacted me and haven't run a call in almost 15 years. Make sure your nephew doesn't hold it in.

    Ghosts in the Pines?

    Twice I've almost hit an owl or large bird at least. It went over my hood and nearly blocked out my entire windshield. The first time it happened I saw it take off from a mailbox. The second time it came out of no where. It's not as exciting as saying I saw the Jersey Devil. Back in the day...
