Good one! But I think she's not seeing it. I'm a little curious what bathroom she referred to in her original post. Do you think that bathroom where she's finding those liquor bottles and homeless people in that smells like a public bathroom is in her own house or would that be a public bathroom that she's hanging out in?


Good one? I guess I'm not getting it? Was there a joke there? I said JSQ smells like a pubic restroom, and it's in the restroom inside JSQ (you know, the only bathroom there) where I'm finding liquor bottles....well, airplane size liquor bottles....just gotta get that little taste I guess.

So much outrage over a childish, cowardly act? Is it because the offenders are probably white and are supposedly destined for bright futures? Meanwhile kids are beating the crap out of other kids in our other city schools. I see very little outrage over events at Dickinson, like it's expected and therefore acceptable. As we saw in our most recent election, sometimes the so-called best and brightest are neither.

Wow there is some annoying behavior going on in this thread. I wonder if it wouldn't make more sense to simply start a new thread with a title like "What has Nidia Lopez accomplished in Ward C"? And then her supporters could step up and articulate exactly what she has done or in which ways her policies had made a difference. And wouldn't it be better for the upcoming runoff election if we knew what Mrs. Lopez intends to do if elected? I myself could never imagine WANTING to be an elected representative of the people, but if I did I can't help feeling I would be out there doing my best to explain myself.

Refrigerator - recommendations?

Looking to buy a new fridge - don't need anything fancy, just something that can last a long time.

Can someone recommend a model that you have good experiences with? I looked briefly online, but there are so many choices, don't know where to start.

Thanks in advance!

PS where are some good places to get reviews on appliances?

You might not feel that way if you backed a loser who got 2nd place with 12% in a field of 15 candidates. That person might stand a great chance of winning the runoff. Look up how Schundler won a special "no runoff" election with 17 percent of the vote in field of 19 candidates. This is why instant runoff makes so much sense.

Jersey City police are searching for three men they say opened fired on a building on Summit Avenue Thursday night.

One the bullets shattered the window of a woman who lives on the second floor, police said.

The shooting occurred in front of 1166 Summit Ave. at 9:34 last night. The woman who reported her window shattered told police that she heard multiple shots fired.
A man who was
sitting outside on Summit Avenue at the time told police three men walked up to the house and one of them pulled out a handgun from his waist and fired eight shots at the building, reports state.

No one was injured, reports said, and two bullets, one from a second floor hallway and one from a first floor apartment were recovered.

The three men were only described as wearing black hooded sweatshirts with their faces covered. Anyone with information on the incident is asked to call (201) 547-JAIL.

Sounds like the drive-by shooting the three Hoboken guys did in the Heights a couple of weeks ago when the 72 year old grandmother got shot.

I asked you first what Lopez has done for her ward. You say you aren't affiliated with Lopez, however you were more than willing to work on Fulop's ticket as a volunteer which would probably mean that if you did volunteer, you were toting Lopez's name on your little ribbon.

I have been a huge Fulop supporter, however the only person that I refused to vote for on his ticket was Lopez.

If she was standing in front of me in Ward C or anywhere I would have no idea who she is. In fact, most of her neighbors when shown a photo of her while campaigning had no clue who she was. That's pretty bad that as a lifetime Ward C resident (with the exception of a short stint in Ward E) I can easily identify all of the other council members but not my own council person.

While I had no intention of voting for her, I think that not showing up for a debate was pretty disrespectful to her supporters.

Rich has been an activist in his neighborhood for a long time. Not only is he the president of his neighborhoods association but he was a police officer here for many years. He raised his family here and even after retirement from the JCPD still resides in Jersey City. He also volunteers his time at the local animal shelter, a place that needs to see the face of our city government more often.

I'd love to see what kind of "help" you received from Lopez that has truly benefited your neighbors aside from yourself. It sounds to me that you are either a mole or just a buster looking for trouble. Every post you make in this thread is some sort of softball question asking "prove to me why you are worthy Mr. Boggiano" even though you are clearly a Lopez supporter.

Why don't you walk over to his house and knock on his door and speak to Rich? Better yet, why not catch him while he is out on foot for the next month campaigning? I am sure he'd love to talk to you in person.

Stop asking stupid questions. Go to Rich Boggiano's website. Watch the videos, read his agenda. Educate yourself on where he stands. He shouldn't have to tie your shoes and button your shirt for you if you're old enough to vote.

Great! Tell me how Mr. Biggiano has been an activist in the Square. I would really like to know. Because I'm involved in three groups here and he's not in any of them. This means he and I do not run in the same circles. And that means I don't know anything about him. So instead of looking at whatever I ask as a threat and resorting to juvenile tactics (my questions are far from stupid), why don't you tell me about what Rich Boggiano has done for the Square?

Here's a primer:

Rich has impressed me a lot over the years with his thoughtful responses on JCList. I don't get to vote in Ward C, but if I did, I'd give Rich careful consideration.

No, but if you've been following the stories about the cheating and stimulant abuse at Stuyvesant, you'll know it can have it's own extremely dark side.

The title if this thread is 'Rich Boggiano for Jersey City Council Ward C', isn't it? I came here to read why he deserves my vote. All of the posts bashing Councilwoman Lopez don't tell me a thing about Rich Boggiano. I can see by their venomous writings by some they think the title of this thread is, 'Write why you hate Councilwoman Lopez'. Quite frankly, their posts tell me more about the author than it does about Councilwoman Lopez and nothing about Rich Boggiano. The 'burden of proof' is on each candidate to demonstrate their qualifications. And this thread is not about Councilwoman Lopez, it's about Mr. Boggiano. I want to hear about Rich Boggiano. I have been in the Square for almost one year now and have never heard about him before this race. I've been in Jersey City 20 years and I know nothing of him. It's not like he's famous or anything and I don't hang around with you, his friends, so go ahead, tell me what has he done in the Square, for the residents, so those of us who don't know him so can learn about his contributions. I'm ready, willing, and happy to listen to you.

JCCheerleader - At this point I'm confident you are someone closely associated with my opponent and not simply an ordinary voter who is a fan of her as a politician. Your attempt to portray yourself otherwise is disingenuous.

In the past 40 years, I've earned my reputation as a fighter with allegiance to a single group: My community. Not the city or county government. Not the HCDO. Not the political boss's that come and go.

I'm proud to be Ward C's independent voice. I dare say most voters agree with me based on the results last Tuesday where I was up against a well financed incumbent candidate on a very popular mayoral ticket. I agree with Steve Fulop on many many things, but there's a really good chance he's going to throw a lot of money into defeating me on June 11 because any mayor would rather have a rubber stamp than even the slightest risk of dissent. That's his choice to make, but I'm not the kind of person who backs down from a good fight, especially when it comes to my community.

Actually, I'm not. I am relatively new to the Square after having been very involved in the Heights community as a volunteer for over 19 years. I am not campaigning for anyone nor am I related to anyone who is running. I have no relatives in Jersey City beside my husband. I also pay a lot of taxes and get very little back from Jersey City in the form of services.
I believe that whomever gets paid for the job of Councilperson should contribute more than I do as a volunteer. I did not support Bill Gaughan or campaign for him yet I will always give him credit for what he did for the Heights community. I am doing the same for Councilwoman Lopez and will do the same for you if you're elected.
I am asking you these questions because this forum is a great opportunity for you to show me-a person who votes on a candidate's merits, what you're about. Instead of looking at me as one of the negative persons who like to make personal attacks at our candidates, look at me for what I am: a taxpaying good citizen who wants to vote for the best candidate for Councilperson. Why don't you go back and re-read what you've written and then what I've written in response. You'll see that I want nothing more from you than information on your skills as a Councilperson.
