Look. More photos.

Listen, I told you I take a lot of photos. So while I try to get back onto a regular bloggin' schedule, please enjoy these random photos of the Jersey Shore. I couldn't sleep one morning while the heat wave was in full effect. So I headed to the beach around 9 a.m. before it got really hot, armed with a camera and $7 for a beach badge. Here are some of the photos. Enjoy.

On TV: Mr. & Mrs. Smith

What follows is something I tried to post on Bob Ingle's blog on September 13th. Bob had a problem with it. Do you think the following is all that bad?

"As a matter of fact, I saw a fireman in a TV interview on 9/11 who said knowing what he knows now he would not have gone in. You can keep the steak."

I never welshed on a bet in my life, Mr. Ingle, and I certainly won't start with the likes of you. Do you have a name for this coward / alleged fireman that, as per you, would, now, refuse to search for his potentially injured brothers in the rubble of the Twin Towers? Provide a source for your claims and I'll contribute the cost of that steak I promised to the Lunch Break soup kitchen in Red Bank. I'll even send the certified check to you first, and you can mail it to Lunch Break yourself. Hell, if I have to pay out, I'll even scan a copy of the check and post it here in PDF format.

"No emergency worker should ever have to think twice about it."

Think about what twice, Bob? That the possibility exists that one might actually get hurt or even die while making their living as a cop, fireman, EMT or Marine? That their job might involve some element of danger? If so, you've been sitting behind that computer in your ivory tower way too long, my friend. You ought to take some time to actually talk to the working people that suit up five days a week and make their living doing just that. Risk is part and parcel of being an "emergency worker." It is in the job description.

"I'd like to see the evidence used to reach the conclusion the air was safe."

The air wasn't safe. If Whitman claimed otherwise, then her remarks were idiotic and negligent to be sure. Do you really need someone from yet another government commission to tell you that, or are you really just looking for any excuse to bash the Bush Administration? I think you aren't at all interested in these "emergency workers" that you you feign concern for. I think you, like these congressman you spoke of, are far more interested in bashing an Administration that you don't particularly like. I think you have your own political agenda.

"Kids were going to kindergarten in south Jersey on a site contaminated with mercury the state DEP had on its danger lists but dropped it."

Mission Control to Bob: Come in Mr. Ingle. We seem to have lost you in tangent space somewhere. Lest you forgot, you began this thread talking about Special Prosecutors and Christie Whitman's alleged "crimes." Now you are rambling on about kindergarten and mercury levels? Far be it from me to disturb your incoherent rant, but are you all there, Bob? One martini too many at lunch, perhaps?
