Capalbo's Restaurant
I was a big fan of Capalbo’s Restaurant, and really sorry to see it go; the local dining community never really gave it the support I thought it deserved (probably because it’s SO DANGEROUS to go to a restaurant on S. Clinton Avenue… please, people – get OVER yourselves, already). Anyway, anybody know what former owner Jason Kuey is up to?

What would you do with $116.5 million?
Click here to read about the Cape May couple who stepped forward to claim half the record recent Mega Millions jackpot, estimated to be worth $116.5 million before taxes. What would you do with that kind of money?

Does anyone care about Trenton's litter problem?
Because of unfortunate circumstances, i am now one who must walk or take a bus if I need to go anywhere. It is not unlike me to pick up trash from Trentons church yards, sidewalks, and uncover with my feet the accumulation of "trash" that covers our drainage areas on the street corners. Everyone complains about the flooding on the streets and sidewalks, but dont do a thing to prevent it from happening. Where are our heavy rains, and spring thaw supposed to go, if it cant get through to the sewers? I am middle age, and have a very hard time now bending, because of recent injury, but my disgust with people and the way they treat their neighborhoods is just too much for me to ignore. I passed three young teenage girls one day who stood talking, and as I passed by them, one girl just tossed her potato chip bag to the ground, "didn't even crumple it first!" just threw it down like that is where it belonged. Is this the way they are brought up? Do their parents do the same thing? I stood waiting for a ride one morning in front of the apt. building where I live, when one of my neighbors left, and went across the street to his van. I had noticed him carrying a bag, and a newspaper under his arm. After getting inside his van and starting it up, he opened his door, and just tossed the entire newspaper into the street!!! I cant put in print the disgust I felt at that moment. This was a "grown man!". I know I cant change the world, but I would love to see people young and old, start using the trash cans that are on alot of the citys streets! If there isnt one nearby, WAIT TILL THERE IS ONE! I've walked up some of Trentons sidestreets off of W. State St. and it actually looks like a dump truck overturned and spewed trash all over the place! Show a little pride in where you live folks, and stop making the city streets look like giant dumpsters!

Does anyone remember the song "Blow Blow, Old March Wind?"
This is a question for anyone who attended Mott School in the early '50's. Does anyone remember the song "Blow Blow old March Wind?" Does anyone remember the rest of the words to the song ? I would like to have them.
How difficult is it in New Jersey for a father to win custody of his children?
Former New Jersey Gov. Jim McGreevey is attempting to win custody of his daughter and get his estranged wife to pay him child support. Are men ever successful in winning these kinds of custody fights, or do the courts automatically side with the mother? Will McGreevey's homosexuality affect the case in the eyes of the law or a judge? Is there any precedent?
