Yesterday was a horrible of flying. After getting dropped off by me moms to the airport at 6 in the morning, I slowly but surely slugged my way to my gate. We all board the plane at the right time and literally as the last person sits down, the continental crew gets on the intercom to say we are delayed 2 hours. This delay meant i had time to go into the northwest airlines world club with 2 other program managers and have a few early morning refreshments (bloody marys and toast.... breakfast of champions). At 930, we board the plane again in hopes of taking off, but once again, we board, get halfway down the runway and pull off because we have been delayed another hour, and this time no club to go to. Shit. Well we eventually take off and they show the same movie i saw on the way to Hawaii so I ignore it, and watch The Prestige on my computer, good flick, and Hancock, dec flick. Once my computer dies 3/4 of the way through The Prestige, they announce to us that we are flying in a holding pattern, which means we circle over Pennsylvania again and again until we can fly into Newark. This holding pattern lasted close to 2 hours. By the time I arrived into Newark it was around 6:30 or 7 and I was tired but redonkulously hungry. Continental, the airline i flew with, is a killer airline by the way. Its the only airline that still serves food during its long flights. They gave us a breakfast meal that was damn good. Anyway... Once i dumped my shit (take as you want to) in the hotel I had to make a trip to White Castle....damn son. It was good. The burgers were cheap, 65 cents, although smaller, and the fries were really good too. I got 3 burgers, a spicy burger, a cheeseburger and a regular burger, a fry, and a medium drink for 5 bucks. God Bless White Castle. I can see why its stoner food. Each burger only costs a small fortune, and if you go to white castle you can order like 7 or 8 burgers thinking oh my god thats a lot of food, but infact its not the same size as a regular burger but ya know...... hence in Harold and Kumar when they go in and order like 40 burgers and 10 fries, it might be feasible to eat. I think I have friends who would be up for the challenge of eating that much food. In any case, it was good.
New Jersey isnt so bad, but then again I am sitting in the lobby of a holiday in by the airport and have only experienced the teachers in the seminar room and the white castle employees so far. One thing i kinda wanna see is an oompa loompas, as steve calls them, ( see link, www.hcwdb.com and find orange faced spikey haired guys.....) They are the douchiest of the douche in NJ and I kinda wanna see one cuz theyre just shit-tacularly douchee. I go to Cherry Hill, N.J. tonight, and will probably pick up my NJ shot glass there or something. Tomorrow for lunch, or maybe tonight we will see, I am going to another place shown on the travel channel for eatin Philly Cheese Steaks in Philadelphia, which is like 5 miles from Cherry Hill. I look forward to that, and then take off to Champaign tomorrow where I drive all over the middle of Illinois. I need to get a shot glass there too. Somebody remind me to get a shot glass there. Aight, im out my son. Chunkin the deuces from Newark, New Jersey....

you forgot the link of the oompa loompas...
Matty D... NJ that is my hometown!!! Philly cheese steaks, the best place to go is downtown Philly. It is called Pat's Steaks. (It is next to Genos, but Pat's is FAR BETTER!!!) As far as Cherry Hill hope you were treated well there, that is an okay part of town. Otherwise, best of luck in Newark (aka the ghetto) and if you need anymore hot spots to check out, let me know :)
