1DE's Beach Thoughts
Just got back from a little over a week at the beach house. The wife and kids are now firmly entrenched there for the summer. I have to pick up the mail and the dog tomorrow. I wanted to post some random thoughts that occured to me while in Ocean City, NJ.
1) Never put your camcorder, digital camera, and 35mm camera all together in an impossibleto forget place while planning for a trip. You will forget them and end up using a cheap disposable camera instead.
2) Spandex is a good/bad invention.
3) Bikini's should come with mirrors!
4) American's have no sense of shame anymore.
5) Some one please tell the French-Canadians that thongs and speedos at the beach are for WOMEN ONLY!
6) Just because you are Italian and used to tan like a god when you were young and healthy doesn't mean things don't change. When you are older, in not such good shape and pastier USE Sunscreen.
7) Italians can get sunburn.
8) All little kids really do pee in the ocean.
9) America is not segregated by law anymore, but by choice. I was very suprised to notice the lack of any African-Americans while there.
10) Beach Tags are a rip off!
11) Ocean City is run by morons!!!
12) Ocean City is building a beach front high school that is outragous in size and scope on the backs of all absentee owners like me! Their taxes are evil!
13) The little old lady crying about losing her home over property taxes deserves no pity! Until this years reassessment in OC, her full square block property was assessed at around $7,000.00 a year. She now has to pay $40,000.00 a year in taxes. I love seeing all of the townies crying about how their taxes have gone from $1 to $2k up to $3 to $5k. Welcome to my world! Now the townies have to pay the same as us "landlords", guess what? My taxes there went down $2k!
14) The cleaning people for my parents beach homes are a racket. They make $100 per cleaning that takes them less then 1/2 hour!
15) Renters have no respect for anyone elses property!
16) OC, NJ is the wetest dry town in existence!
17) Was I that big a jerk when I was a teen ager?
18) Too many rent a cops and not enough real cops on the boardwalk.
19) The only people smoking on the boardwalk were the ones not old enough to do so.
20) The 4th of July brings out every moron who ever visited "South of the Border"!
21) We have made life to safe! Accidents were God's way of killing stupid people. Watching a kid with a roman candle in his hand running down a crowded beach made me almost cheer for it to blow up in his stupid face!
22) Ocean City police are out writing parking tickets at 5:00 am! They tow at 6:00 am! Not me, but funny to see! They are also ungodly loud!
23) America is fat!
24) The ocean is always breath-taking!
I'll post other stuff later, like a ne AO hat I had made at the beach and some pictures.
