The Little Sandwich Shop isn't so little anymore
How about that, The Little Sandwich Shop on Grove near Newark has expanded and has added seating! How cool is that? Already some of the best tasting sandwiches in town and now a place near the Grove St. PATH to sit down inside and enjoy them? Well played Little Sandwich Shop, well played!

Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with US3!
This song now is just over 20 years old and it still sounds fresh as the day it came out. Guess good horns and jazz samples featuring Herbie Hancock's 'Cantaloupe Island' never go out of style. With Mr. Gerard Presencer on trumpet, here's US3 with 'Cantaloop (Flip Fantasia)' kicking off the Music Series tonight.
Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with THE MOODY BLUES!
When Johnny was young and heard this song, 'Question', by the Moody Blues, as a young music sponge he sure thought a "thousand million questions" sure were a lot of anything, questions or not.
Now Johnny's probably heard this song a thousand million times and it never disappoints.

Get on out the door to get your party on after grooving to The Jackson Five and 'The Love You Save'
So Jersey City, what are you doing this weekend?
Since the weather is going to be spot on this weekend, Saturday sunny and 70º and Sunday 76º and mostly, sunny Johnny thought he'd pass along this handy dandy guide from NJ.com as to what's going on in Hudson County this weekend that might interest you.
See you all back here tonight for the Music Series or as news breaks.

Now THIS is some soccer news; David Villa is headed to NYC FC
Johnny's fave-o-rite player and Spain's all-time leading international scorer, David Villa is headed to NYCFC according to a report on ESPN. David Villa played this last season with La Liga champions Atletico Madrid after playing the previous three seasons at FC Barcelona and scoring in the Champion's League Final against Manchester United in Barca's 3-1 victory in London in 2011.
El Guaje (The Kid) is known as a striker with an amazing nose for the net from any angle from any distance. He led the Wold Cup in goals in 2010 as Spain won the whole thing. Mr. Villa, show us what fans can expect:

Lukas, dude, you gotta slow down on the 5 Hour Energy drinks
Or booze or pills or meth or whatever the hell you were on and then some.
Dateline Manasquan (and we admit we don't get out to Manasquan as often as we'd like): One Lukas Iorio, a former Region 2 champion and two-time state qualifier wrestler at Bergen Catholic had himself one busy night Sunday along the Manasquan boardwalk and surrounding area. Get out your scratch pad or calculator or even follow along in your heads as you count the crimes:
Witnesses said Iorio approached the cart as it was being driven on the beach by a member of the Manasquan Beach Patrol about 8:30 p.m. and jumped feet first through the plastic windshield, landing on a front seat, the release from Police Chief Elliott Correia said.
Correia said he then assaulted both occupants of the cart, forcing them from the vehicle. Witnesses said Iorio drove the cart toward the inlet “at a high rate of speed while swerving at pedestrians,” the release said. He hit and injured a 49-year-old man who twice tried to avoid the cart, Correia said.
He eventually crashed the vehicle into a gazebo, but then ran to a nearby bicycle rack where he apparently tried to steal a bike, the release said. Iorio then punched another man who had apparently came to see if he was OK following the crash and also tried to calm him.
Iorio then fled into a backyard, entered a home through an unlocked door and came face-to-face with its occupants, one of whom, a 72-year-old resident, he repeatedly punched in the face and head, Correia said in the release.
That's a lot of wrong right there. Iorio was subdued by the 72-year-old man's family and beach patrol employees. OK, did you keep track of the crimes? Let's see how you did compared to the charges laid out:
Carjacking, burglary, resisting arrest, four counts of simple assault, one count of assault by auto and two counts of criminal mischief. He also was charged with driving under the influence, reckless driving and leaving the scene the scene of an accident with personal injury.
If stupidity were a game Mr. Iorio just hit a Yahtzee.
