djh101,

You ever think that maybe the owner of the tow company is just doing his "racket (job)" just as you do every day? Its people who like yourself who are the tools. Not some guy doing his job that you dont like.

A Mans legal job is not a racket just because some tool like yourself is not educated enough to relize the facts of life.

Know the facts before you going running your mouth like a bored housewife who gossips all day long.

I'm amazed how many compliments this place is getting. I was so excited to try it after reading all the rave reviews and my roommates and I were so disappointed. The fish taco was bland, the burritos were nothing but spicy ground beef wrapped in a soft tortilla and the enchilada was the size of a deck of cards (for about 6 bucks I expect to get enough food to at least begin to satisfy my appetite). The food wasn't necessarily bad, but honest to God, I would have been happier with taco bell food. Bubby's burritos, baja, white star, isabella's...anywhere else that has that kind of food is so much better in my opinion.

Excerpts from the New York Times:

"...pushing sewage up through toilets in Jersey City.."

"In Hudson County municipalities like Hoboken, Bayonne and Jersey City, the heavy rainfall caused sewer systems to overflow, forcing water up through toilets and bathtubs and causing sewers to back up onto residential streets and major roadways.

"The water has no place to go," said Joseph Beckmyer, chief engineer for the Jersey City Municipal Utilities Authority.

As a result, Mr. Beckmyer said, untreated water was being dumped into the Hudson River, as permitted by the state's environmental regulations. Several large blockages of storm drains were probably contributing to the flooding, he said. Work crews were trying to unclog the smaller drains, but engineers will have to wait for the water to subside before clearing the larger ones, he said. "

Back to your question, dojo-mojo:

At least half the street at the corner of Grand and Grove was under water during the worst of the storm. It stayed pretty deep for a few hours following too. It was about a foot deep in most places in the street and probably 4 to 8 inches covering most of the sidewalk heading up Grove St. toward York St. Luckily, none of this came into our place. The only weird thing was that the sewer backed up into our backtub... left some pretty nasty residues there! Also, following the storm, we tried to flush our toilet and it overflowed terribly...not because it was clogged, just because the water had nowhere to go.

But...it's all gone now!
