Just go to www.ahnj.com for directions/info.

MISTER Brenton, is "around 4pm" still the depart time? I will expect a large scotch and peanuts upon departure.

Man up! Less than an hour for me. Actually passed right by it on Saturday. If I'm lucky, my car will be operational by this time; been in the shop over 2 weeks now - will have new a/c and hopefully no more oil leaks.

For those of you so inclined, there's a decent liquor store on the road you turn on from Rte. 36, just after you get off 36.

If it takes you 4 hours to go 200 miles, you need trade in your unicycle for something with a little more power.

I'm gonna need to load the cooler in Maryland if the drive is this long. I should be nice and hammered by the time I get there. Drinking and driving is legal in the Nation's Armpit, no?

Sir, you are speaking to the pilot of the World's quickest N/A E500. Should be about a 3 hour drive for me.

Yeah, now that it's getting closer to that time, I STILL have not figured out if I'm going or not. So, what is the max. cap. for this boat anyway? If I DO show up, could I be denied due to too many people on the boat as it is? While I'm asking questions, how "low-brow" is this event going to be? I'm not exactly high-class, so I'm not sure if I'll "fit in".

We all drive Mercedesesesesz, how fancy could it be?

I'm guessing I'll be the only one on board with clean underwear. You'll be fine.

After a four-hour drive without stopping, I'm highly skeptical.

Pete, I wouldn't worry about either being too low brow or the charter being too full; neither has ever been the case. So don't let anything scare you away, other than the fact that it's a group of guys all heading off to sea with dirty underwear, alcohol, fishing "poles", and one working toilet.

High Class!
Beleive me those 2 words CAN be used for the normal group, but NEVER EVER NEVER arranged alongside of each other as in "High Class" Class(less) High maybe.

Nice bunch of people show up at the Park in Edison, I am guessing the fishing crowd is just as Cheesy! No really.

No Denial as far as I know.(Except Chucky if Tyro has his way with him!!!)
