  1. Legion,

    Here is your original post, quoting Heritage Foundation. Please note the use of the phrase POVERTY LEVEL in item number one, which accounts for the largest number of “uninsureds” they are allegedly debunking, mainly 20 million.

  2. Ditto – If you’re up on really obscure films I was comedy doctor on. Privilege, Bliss of Mrs. Blossom, The Jokers, & a couple of well-known ones – Dirty Dozen, Countess From Hong Kong. (And I carried tea on Blow-up just to be on the set.)

  3. actually, a lot of pleasant venues in north brooklyn. i’d be up for it if i could walk. i’m fond of the dumpy but mellow abbey bar. we could pick someplace nicer for a w-burg gathering though.

  4. HOBOKENROCKS, people thought Greenville was scary then too, but it wasn’t if you lived there. I walked myself to kindergarten and to my grandmother’s house on Ocean Ave., and fifty years later, I’m still here!

    Thing about the high property taxes in Jersey is, you can reconcile yourself to them if they are a substitute for private school tuition (in the areas that have great public schools), but I don’t think the public schools in JC have ever been any great shakes, so paying a lot of taxes there could be a problem. Then again, if you get a great brownstone in the Heights for under a million, your mortgage could be low enough to afford private schools.

    Used to enjoy your posts about the stock market….
