This really is the kind of stuff that keeps boomers "educated" huh?
Remember when OurTown had funny jokes and recipes?
car thiefs are starting to ship stolen cars overseas now avoiding VIN flags if they sold them in the us
I know people have been doing this for years but this is becoming a trend of a lot of YN car thiefs who used to post striker vehicles on facebook marketplace with the "iykyk" tag now seeking to ship cars overseas to get higher ticket prices

hudsoncountyview.comTom Kean Jr runs away from questions after photo op in Sparta while his CoS aggressively records
Congressman Tom Kean Jr runs away from questions after a short photo op in Sparta while his Chief of Staff, Dan Scharfenberger, aggressively films the members of the public asking the questions.
This is not appropriate behavior for an elected official and his staff. The funding for Sparta's pump station improvements was announced back in January but he waited until October to make a big show of it? The timing seems extremely convenient for someone running for reelection.
Look who else was there. Sussex County Commissioner Jack DeGroodt & Sparta Councilman Michael Sylvester who are also running for reelection.
If Congressman Tom Kean Jr. actually cared about his constituents, he would have come prepared to be asked the hard questions and defend his actions or lack thereof. But instead, he smiles for a picture, hands the check off, and vanishes once again. We didn’t expect anything different but this seems the only thing he's consistent about.
Congressional District 7 has not had a voice in Congress under Tom Kean Jr. and they certainly haven't had an advocate.

Caught this incredible sight over New Jersey this morning! 🌙🪐 That bright “star” hugging the crescent Moon is actually Jupiter. I happened to photograph them incredibly close together during the October 6 lunar occultation. Pretty wild thing to catch just looking up at the right moment! 📸✨
Considering to move to North Plainfield - NYC Commute Options?
Hello fellow commuters!!
Looking at homes in North Plainfield, Scotch Plainfield, etc. but work in the city, are there any preferred commute options from these towns?
I know there are very few express busses that run on Rt 22 but looking to understand train options as well.
Thanks in advance!
Do you see Stockton University closing?
Hey, everyone. I’m a junior at Stockton University, graduating Spring 28. If you haven’t seen the news about it, the university announced today they were laying off 21 staff positions (14 faculty, 7 professional staff) due to ongoing financial issues. They took out a 24.6 million dollar deficit for FY 27 and will run out of money in their operating accounts by FY 31, I believe, if they keep burning money at this rate. Anyways, it’s definitely been a huge concern on campus. A lot of people are going to worst case scenarios (myself included) and are preparing to get a degree from a university that closes which is another issue, but others are suggesting that since Stockton drives a lot of jobs in the area the state will force a merger with Rutgers or Rowan like they did with NJCU. What do you guys think? I’m in the camp that the state might just dissolve the university.
