Anyone want a Diner for free?

Recommended Posts

I used to live rite across the street from this diner.  It is in really rough shape and most likely will fall victim to the wrecking ball.  It would be nice to see someone relocate and restore it.  Unfortunately Wawa is involved.  They dont wait for anything when it comes to construction.

A Wawa takes 3 years to build in NJ...It's not like anything can happen quickly in NJ when it comes to commercial development. And Wawa is pro concealed carry where allowed. 

Not around here they dont.  Once they get their approval they move FAST.  They will spare no expense to get a store open quickly.

Reminds me of the Toms diner on Route 46 in Ledgewood. Pretty sure it was in the Cyndi Lauper video.

 

Unrelated, but you HAVE to try White Manna.

Yes, The diner at the Ledgewood circle, across where the old drive-in and some go-go bar that had smiley face logo was. Was in a Cyndi Lauper video, my uncle used to own the Sunoco gas station on the corner in front of the strip mall where Ramseys (?) and the bowling alley was. Its been about 28yrs since then, I think. man it been a while wow

Wasn't the hub cap place across from Baker's Basin, around where the red roof is?

I thought he was further up by the quaker bridge mall?  That whole corridor of rt1 has changed so much since I was a kid.  I remember when most of the htings on Rt1 one werent.  That diner has been there forever though!

I do remember the junk guy at the Ledgewood circle. He was somewhere between the strip club and McDonalds. If you Google it you can find him.

 

I was young when they got rid of the circle. I'm going to guess 10 arbitrarily. I remember bugging my parents to always bring me there but it was always a firm no. One of my friends went there and bought a Schwinn Stingray, I was obviously jealous. Junk places are cool.

 

Also the original Sandwiches Unlimited was right there too. I remember being there once and it was old and hokey IIRC.

 

Edit: here's a link. I would format it but I'm on my phone

    • I very seriously doubt this has anything to do with terrorism.    1) Harbor pilots are VERY seriously vetted, and highly trained. Not to mention extremely well paid. My experience knowing a few of them, and knowing how they are recruited and screened tells me that there is a slim to highly unlikely chance that a harbor pilot would have participated in anything like that.    2) Maintenance of foreign flag ships is well known to be dubious. Especially these days. These were NOT US flag, Jones act sailors. It was (to my understanding) a largely Indian crew on that ship, with a Ukrainian Captain. Indian crews are not exactly known for being stellar.    3) The bunkers (fuel) these ships use is ‘Bunker C’, which is a heavy, dirty fuel oil that can, and usually is, pretty contaminated. This stuff ain’t your car grade gasoline or diesel fuel. It’s nasty.   It requires nearly constant filter changes and maintenance to the engine/generators. The ship took on fuel prior to departing port, which would stir up all kinds of shit in the fuel tanks, which would contribute to particulates in the fuel lines/filters.    4) I’d say the posting of the chief engineer for Maserek above was pretty spot on as far as chain of events.    This was a shitty accident, with horrible timing and outcome. Not a terror attack. 
    • I saw Lara's interview on Bannon's War Room, and that gave me pause for thought. Her conjecture depends primarily on the veracity of her sources. Regardless, if it's not applicable in any way to this ship disaster, the methods described seem valid to me. And worthy of consideration for the future. As I said before, IMO something is coming.
