OK Hudson County and the surround, today is Small Business Saturday
So give the big box stores a chilly shoulder today and especially avoid the one who doesn't want to pay workers too much and then hands then food stamp and welfare applications on payday, it's a Small Business Saturday. There is no shortage of wonderful and worthwhile small businesses to shop at around the area. They are probably hurting more than usual after the big storm.
If you're gonna drop some cash on a gift why not buy it from your neighbors? If they do better, you do better.

Johnny's break-up letter to the Duane Reade Pharmacy
Dear Duane Reade/Walgreens,
Strike three. Three times in the last month you have been handed a prescription from Johnny, prescriptions he is told by his doctor aren't all that uncommon. In fact the last prescription he got on Wednesday he specifically asked his doctor if Duane Reade should have this particular drug onhand. He assured Johnny they should. "It's pretty common."
Fast forward to today. Bzzzzzzt. Nope, "We don't have that in stock, come back Monday after 2pm." Isn't that special? A med to help with pain and discomfort, just come back Monday, MONDAY after 2pm. This is the third time in the span of about a month he's been told to, like in the Wizard of Oz, "Go away and come back tomorrow." Or in this case come back next week.
So Duane Reade and your new paymasters at Walgreens, this was it. Johnny will happily find a new pharmacy. You obviously can't handle the needs of the community pharmacy-wise, so a new pharmacy is needed. He can't wait three days for his meds. Nobody should have to.
One more note for the folks at DR, this also means Johnny will stop at a local bodega for chips and what not on those nights he gets off the PATH and he needs chips or some bread or a beverage. He'll choose to pay more at a local business because after Monday, Duane Reade is persona non-gratis. If you can't uphold your most basic store tenet don't expect Johnny to do it either.
Vaya con Dios Duane Reade.
Sincerely,
Johnny

One more time with the Sanchez fumble from last night
Because it's just not often you see a highly paid QB get blasted into the turf by the ass of his own lineman, and then have the resulting fumble returned for a touchdown (New England scored 35 points in the second quarter while holding the ball for just over two of the fifteen minutes involved). This clip is an instant classic....of fail.
The spire that will sit atop the WTC is on the way
The spire that will sit atop the 1 World Trade building which will give it it's iconic 1,776 feet in height is on the way by barge, being delivered in eighteen sections. The Associated Press picks up the story:
Eight of the sections are being transported via barge 1,500 nautical miles south from Canada on the Atlantic Salvor. It left Quebec on Nov. 16 and is expected next week at Port Newark in New Jersey.
When the time comes for the sections to be installed it will take about three months to complete. The spire itself will stand 408 feet in the air from the top of the WTC.

Late night open thread
We hope you're one of the lucky ones who can sleep until the 12 o' clock news comes on tomorrow. If not, we're like sorry and stuff.
