As I mentioned yesterday, this past weekend, I went to the East Regional games in Newark. I stayed with a buddy of mine named Dave who lives in Hoboken and is a natural at video shuffleboard. Having never been to Hoboken before, my only frame of reference was the
Mad Real World sketch from Chappelle's Show. I assumed everyone drank banana cognac.
I wasn't all that off, at least on the alcohol front. Hoboken is basically a square mile of bars and restaurants. Dave lives on the main drag. About a block from his place is Carlo's Bakery, which is the bakery from
Cake Boss, a show on TLC that I've never seen. Apparently, I am the only one. At all times of day during business hours, there is a line about two blocks long. It crossed streets, but they can't block the intersection, so there are just hundreds of people lined up next to a Walgreen's. These people are idiots, especially considering they can just turn east at the Walgreen's and see a real landmark.
Needless to say, I ordered the Tron Special.
