@KurtDeimer When you coming to @starlandNJ ?

[Ocean County History @klopeks]

@OneJerseySchorr I thought it was just my polling place. You're saying the whole county doesn't?

[Ocean County History @klopeks]

@KurtDeimer is why you always get there in time for the opener. Great show tonight at @starlandNJ, thanks for hanging after to chat with the fans.

@joe_d_budd The fact this game is happening at all is the miracle.

[Ocean County History @klopeks]

@joe_d_budd but a few months ago we never though we'd get this far. I still consider this season a win.

[Ocean County History @klopeks]

@SteveConteNYC Always makes me think of Arlo Guthrie. "I mean, I'm sitting here on the group W bench...."

so I guess people have been saying it for a long time.

[Ocean County History @klopeks]

@SteveConteNYC Too bad I'm on the East Coast. Any chance of new shows on this side of the country?
Seeing you guys on the Monsters of Rock Cruise at least.

Today in New Jersey history:

September 14,1944: The “Great Atlantic Hurricane of ’44” struck New Jersey with ninety-six-mile-an-hour winds and generated a storm surge that lifted vacation cottages off their foundations and deposited them blocks away and wrecked boardwalks all along the coast.

The @dbeaver_news chatbot gives up before you can even ask it a question.

@PlaydromeLanes Did not expect this to yield zero results, but it looks like you're right.

[Ocean County History @klopeks]

@OneJerseySchorr Thanks for the clarification. I had no idea that it was no longer called Kimball, or that they had gotten rid of the maternity ward.

[Ocean County History @klopeks]

@SteveConteNYC Agreed. I'm actually listening to @SteveConteNYC 's Concrete Jangle right now.
