    Totowa, NJ...basically the West Virginia of New Jersey.

    Hardly. It's just west of Paterson, NJ. Not exactly known as a "great place to live" and it's honestly on the fringe of the "Great Paved North" that is the Jersey City/Newark Metroplex.

    It's an hour and a half from me the way Google drives. The way I drive, about an hour.

    Don't worry, I'll protect him. I'll just push you in front of the stray bullets coming out of East Orange.

    now boys,

    Totowa is a pretty safe town, very suburban...at least as far as NJ goes. It's a nice cushion away from Jersey city ,Newark, and East Orange thats for sure..

    you South Jersey boys are a hoot ;)

    He'll be at his prime fighting weight, and with the cardio to go the distance. Not to mention his head will still be the same size, and it has it's own gravitational pull, so I'll stick with Lou.

    I'm glad this year's Polkfest was a success! Seeing the pictures of all of you is really fun! I missed this year after attending the previous two at Ted's place and Polk HQ/Al's house. Polkfest and the Forum members who attend regularly are something special. I look forward to seeing everyone next year a Lou's.
