THE HOLIDAY EXODUS HAS ARRIVED...

4th of July falls on a Saturday this year and as a result, many of you will be taking off to parts unknown (I've always loved that term), beginning today. Most of you have Friday off so it makes sense to take off today to squeeze in an extra day of R & R. With the economy being what it is, I'm intrigued to see how many people actually leave the area this year. Sure you'll have the usual trek to the Hamptons or the Jersey Shore, but I get the feeling that longer jaunts will be minimal this time around. Folks are going to be a bit more creative in their holiday celebrating.

One big change this year: The Macy's Fireworks Show will be on the Hudson River as opposed to its normal place on the East River. This gives the folks on the West Side of Manhattan, New Jersey and to an extent, Staten Island a great show while the East Siders, Queens, Bronx and most of Brooklyn will be out of luck. Oh well, when you're dealt lemons, you make lemonade. Hopefully the weather gods will cooperate and give us a good weekend.

Pub Trivia brought us a lot of new faces, which is always welcomed. We always appreciate the regulars who come by week after week; but it's always good to see new blood to bring some competition to the Trivia game. This week's theme was USA, in honor of the upcoming Independence Day Weekend. Among the new faces: lots of hotties and of course, I always welcome that.


Guess who won? ANGEL and her crew (aptly named "Billy Mays Hayes"). Good job by them and for winning, they qualify for the upcoming Tournament of Champions in August. Hopefully they will be around by then to compete.
