It’s located along the Delaware River, and despite manchu-mustached park rangers and typically lame lifeguards, it’s a nice spot for families to spend the day and enjoy some swimming and grilling. When I got there I was so bummed that [...] Continue Reading

Posted on 31 July 2010 by Joe Dimeck
The unemployment rate might have dropped down from its 9 year high of 10.1% in October 2009, but there sure as hell are a lot of people, who can’t seem to find work.

Welcome to 2010
Since everyone is overly optimistic about 2010, I’m going to be the Joe Biden to everyone’s Obama. After all, the year just started and I think it’s a little premature to say things like “Happy New Year!” We did the same thing at the beginning of 2009 and look how that worked out. So, in [...]

From 2009 to 2010 #1
Delivering Chinese food on Tuesdays was a fun gig while it lasted. Now, in this new year my jacket will not reek of eggrolls and lo mein. And while that was bad, it was another memory of being a delivery driver that was far worse than a smelly jacket or a non-tipper. It was the [...]
