Marioville! Sports, Politics, Humor and more... / commute via the shuttle bus from to jfk

« on: November 29, 2012, 12:42:25 PM »

anyone commute yet from the east side in rock? 


mta seems to say that A service from the east side is replaced with a shuttle bus operating NONSTOP between mott and jfk.  the idea for points in between (67th) seems to be you hop the H shuttle east and then catch the bus back west. 


this doesn't seem reasonable.


i'm hoping that someone will tell me that the shuttle bus is actually making stops at all the stations between mott and jfk.

Main Room - General New York Surf and New Jersey Surf Discussions / tips for the surf campus class of 2012

« on: August 30, 2012, 12:22:05 PM »

labor day approaches.  with it a swelling heard of wide eyed graduates will test their chops in the fray of a rapidly changing ocean environment.  and though the growing season is tolerably comic, we see more and more and more that the fall harvest is bloody and sometimes worse.  with this in mind, and with the increased pool of pay to players preparing to make their mark, i begin a list of tips for the surf campus graduating class of 2012.



1 - school is out
2 - your tuition does not gain entry when school is out
3 - think of "your" surf school spot as a summer fling with an older girl  "...oh boy that was fun.  wait.  why is she ignoring me?  who are all these guys with their hot rods?  is that a switchblade?  geez - i better move on..."
4 - you still don't know what you are doing
5 - it is ok to get up early, drive all the way to the beach, sit on the beach, watch other people surf for hours, and then walk down the beach to some distant uncrowded location before you work on your paddle out
6 - there are sticks and other hazards out there which you should identify before you get out there
7 - when the ocean kicks up - you are a hazard out there

Marioville! Sports, Politics, Humor and more... / Rockaway + babies, seeking advice

« on: December 30, 2011, 10:23:32 PM »

Hi All,

I'm recently moved to rockaway with my wife and we're putting  down roots in a hurry.  First house, fixed mostly up this summer and first  baby, delivered a month and half early about a month ago. He's healthy and he likes the beach.

So...I read the occasional post about  someone becoming a new parent.  Now that I've got one, I am interested  in what others have figured out about raising a kid out here.  Its parenting stuff.  Anyone have a good daycare, know of a mom group looking for a new member, got a good pediatrician, figured out school stuff, anyone in need of premie clothes...

We're new on all fronts and welcoming any advice.

Nick
