Expanding Full Metal Jacket Ammo
I don't see much sense in getting wrapped around EFMJ in NJ unless you have a carry permit. If you don't have a carry permit the limited times you can transport or possess a handgun, you can have hollowpoints. The only scenario I can see for most in NJ is if you have a FID and carry an unloaded PCC in your car.

Tropical Storm Ida Ravaging NJ
There was a Port Authority Officer who shot out a window so he and a bunch of people could escape on 9/11. Nothing happened to him. I guess Hopewell and Port Authority have different rules.

Tropical Storm Ida Ravaging NJ
It's all about elevation. I'm only 14 ft asl. Sandy saw houses 200 yds from my front door loose their first floor. I was fine. Climate change? Real. But using fossil fuels has little to do with it, if anything. The tree huggers in the 70s were talking global cooling. Guess what that wasn't the end of us all. Cooling and warming are cycles the Earth goes through. Whatever we do has little to do with it. FWIW, the winter of 1940-41 in Europe was so cold most of the English Channel froze over. The Brits were concerned the Germans would just drive their tanks over the ice. Elizabeth had a response issue because Fire Dept HQS was flooded. Not normal but I've seen a photo of them flooded out in the 70s.

The sizzling ribeye is on the standard menu. The Filet isn't served on the sizzling platter.

Favorite Steak House
I have a friend that makes lobster mac and cheese. That's the only way I've had it. You can't fully cook the lobster or it will be rubbery. I had a choice between lobster or peanut butter and jelly in college. I was good at what I did. I gave away lobster. I knew a multitude of ways of doing lobster. My favorite is taking a crusher claw from a 8-10 pounder and barbecue it.

FWIW, a friend of mine, who's very, discerning, loves the sizzling ribeye at Klees Bar and Grill in Seaside. They bring it out on a sizzling platter like Ruth Criss at half the price. Filet Mignon on the specials menu is the same. I know many people, who think they have money, insist on spending big bucks or they feel they aren't getting anything.

Just another example of taking advantage of any crisis.

Only a sprinkle of rain and a little wind for a short period at the mouth of Toms River.

Movies where the remake is better than the original
I started reading Fleming Bond books when I was 11 or 12. Your youth may have something to do with your appreciation of the Bond books. I was referring to the fact I am quite certain you're much younger than me. Fleming wrote Bond from 1952-1964. We had the Cold War, the Red Menace, doing duck and cover drills, etc. The sex in Bond books can be found on network TV but was very risqué for its time. A lot of other things were much different that today or 30 or 40 years ago.

Movies where the remake is better than the original
I read all the Fleming books back in the 60s. Perhaps you're too young to appreciate them as you're unaware of what things were like in the 60s. That's why I like "Dr No". Pretty much followed the book.

I have to give him credit. When Jeff Bridges delivered the line in True Grit, "Fill your hand you son of a bitch", he was as good as John Wayne. A hard act to follow.

I have a project rereading all the Fleming Bond books.

I disagree. Mark Wahlberg is far from Michael Caine.

Movies where the remake is better than the original
I agree most remakes such. There are exceptions though. True Grit is one. Jeff Bridges did a good job. I'll throw in not a remake of a movie but of a TV show I enjoyed The Equalizer. They changed a few things and the 2nd one was a bit weak but Denzel Washington did a good job. I think he's one of the best actors ever. Never saw one of his movies where he didn't do a good job.

Hollow Points
I agree with you.. Never said it was illegal. Many look in the statutes for something that says use of hollowpoints for SD in your home is legal. Just advising the OP not to bother looking for that.
-
Hollow Points
Do not look for anything in NJ law that says it's legal to use hollowpoints for self defense in your home. NJ law says nothing about this.
-
Hollow Points
You can possess hollowpoints: 1. From place of purchase to home. 2. In your home. 3. To and from your home to a range. 4. IIRC to and from hunting.
