Attaboy Red Wings. Now bring the pain to the infernal Blackhawks!

Time for Jersey City, After Dark

The quiet before the storm

The ballots are set for Tuesday and here we sit the Sunday before the most seminal mayoral and council elections in years, probably decades. Some of the candidates were out and about yesterday and today. Johnny bumped into Ward E candidate Fletcher Gensamer who was giving the glad hand at Wonder Bagels this morning. What a very nice guy with a definite vision for Ward E. Not to say we're endorsing him, the Jersey City Desk doesn't do endorsements because we feel these are our neighbors and friends and choosing one or the other publicly just isn't what we're about.

The hour grows near. What are your thoughts two days out Jersey City? Are your candidates looking strong?

Saturday Night Moonlight Movie Clip time. Tonight, Chicolini takes the stand:


Time for Jersey City, After Dark

Johnny's crack research staff of interns has unearthed this gem

Footage from the VERY FIRST Newport 10K waaaaay back in 2003. You can clearly see the limitations of the technology back then.

The 10th annual Riker Danzig Newport 10K wound its way through a rainy Jersey City this morning

And how about we start Saturday with a few pics from the race. Congratulations to all the runners and a special thanks to all the volunteers who registered runners, handed out water and helped set up the course. A great Jersey City event!

TIme for Jersey City, After Dark

Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with MARTHA AND THE VANDELLAS!

Detroit! Did you see those Red Wings win in overtime again tonight? A little Motown love with Martha and the Vandellas and 'Dancing in the Streets' which tonight would be Fort. St and all around The Post bar.

Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with THE VELVET UNDERGROUND!

This normally this is where Johnny favors you with wise-ass comments about the band or performer before posting a video. Lou reed scares Johnny to this day. He's just gonna play 'Sweet Jane' straight way.

Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with PAT BENATAR!

Pulling down the curtain on another music series is the very sultry Pat Benatar with her smoky lounge-inspired title track from the album True Love. There you go, now you've got the attitude, go find yourself a smart cocktail with your name on it. Skedaddle.
