“Act of Valor is one of a kind and it is fantastic. For a cast of Active duty Navy SEALS they were not bad and the action scenes were exciting and very realistic. This movie shows the real tactics that Navy SEALS use and to be honest i feel really safe knowing they are out there. What you get is an incredibly slick piece of entertainment that has total authenticity to its action. The action set pieces are incredibly well made and you really do get an accurate idea of what it must be like to be right in the midst of the type of firefights that these guys have to endure. From what I understand, this is the first feature film from directors Mike “Mouse” McCoy and Scott Waugh, though you’d never know. The action scenes are extremely compelling and the whole thing is edited with a tight pace. It gives an idea of what the media does not know about what is going on in the world. This movie, is inspiring to be a better American. The story line was pretty exciting as well.” ”Act of Valor” is a very entertaining and unique film. It’s distinctly made (at least to me) outside of the Hollywood system and yet it’s action can stand head and shoulder with films like “Black Hawk Down” or “We Were Soldiers.” This is real stirring filmmaking and needless to say (though I’ll say it anyway), highly recommended.”Act of Valor” is a very entertaining and unique film. It’s distinctly made (at least to me) outside of the Hollywood system and yet it’s action can stand head and shoulder with films like “Black Hawk Down” or “We Were Soldiers.” This is real stirring filmmaking and needless to say (though I’ll say it anyway), highly recommended.

Useless Information REMEMBERING THE STORM OF ‘62
The anniversary of the Storm of ‘62 brings back a flood (no pun intended) of memories. I was a senior at Wildwood High School and our basketball team was poised to repeat as Group I State Champs. The storm struck a week before the South Jersey Group I final in Camden, and it was so bad that our all the gyms in Wildwood were being used as shelters for those people flooded out. Needless to say, we didn’t practice for the entire week and went to play South Regional and we lost by 1 point. Oh, the would-of ’s and could-of ’s of life. Kind of put a damper (no pun intended) on the season. A lot of people suffered far worse fates than our basketball to be sure. Wasn’t even a hurricane, just the perfect storm of Nor’easters when the moon and earth aligned against us. We lived on 18th Street in North Wildwood right above Ocean Avenue and it was the first and only time the ocean actually came up to our driveway. My mother owned the “Sea Edge Motel” on the beach at 15th street and it suffered a lot of water damage to the first floor in addition to about a foot of wet sand covering the parking lot. The bottom floor of the motel was never the same. My plan that Spring was to play baseball, but with all the damage to the motel, my mother needed me more than the baseball team did. Ed Gallagher was the baseball coach and he knew I wanted to play, so he told me that I didn’t have to practice everyday and I could play in just the games. It was a nice compromise that suited my mother. Ed Gallagher was a great guy and great teacher. He used to tease me with “Vogel, you’re the worse baseball player I’ve ever had.” He was probably right and some of our pitchers (actually two, Buddy Gatewood and Bill Mitchell) might agree, especially Gatewood, a fastball pitcher that opposing batters would rocket line drives to center field that I sometimes caught, sometimes missed. I could fall asleep in center field when Bill Mitchell was pitching because he threw nothing but “junk” and everything went to left field. Anyway, everyone has memories of ‘62, some good, most not so good. But I was a senior in high school so it is my frame of reference.

This Recession has hit everybody so hard . . .
• My cousin had an exorcism but couldn’t afford to pay for it, and they re-possessed her! • A truckload of Americans was caught sneaking into Mexico. • A picture is now only worth 200 words. • When Bill and Hillary travel together, they now have to share a room. • The Treasure Island casino in Las Vegas is now managed by Somali pirates. And, finally . . . . I was so depressed last night thinking about the economy, wars, jobs, my savings, Social Security, retirement funds, etc., I called the Suicide Hotline. I got a call centre in Pakistan, and when I told them I was suicidal, they got all excited, and asked if I could drive a truck.

An Irishman who had a little too much to drink is driving home from the city one night and, of course, his car is weaving violently all over the road. A cop pulls him over. “So,” says the cop to the driver, “where have ya been?” “Why, I’ve been to the pub of course,” slurs the drunk. “Well,” says the cop, “it looks like you’ve had quite a few to drink this evening.” “I did all right,” the drunk says with a smile. “Did you know,” says the cop, standing straight and folding his arms across his chest, “that a few intersections back, your wife fell out of your car?” “Oh, thank heavens,” sighs the drunk. “For a minute there, I thought I’d gone deaf.”
