Bookmark and Share
Three restaurants in Blackhawk Plaza will hold a fundraiser tonight for victims of Hurricane Sandy. A percentage from the proceeds from lunch and dinner at The Little Pear, The Prickly Pear Cantina and Ferrari's Cucina Italiana will be donated directly to the relief agency Convoy of Hope.

A percentage from lunches and dinners sold on Nov. 12 will be sent directly to Convoy of Hope and people can also leave checks at the restaurants made
out to the organization.

No thanks---don't want to inadvertently help anyone who may have voted for the Socialists. Let their dear leader save them---give "dem" obamaphones! Oh wait---he's back on the golf course.

Mr. Mason,

As with most natural disasters, Mother Nature is equitable in her distributed punishment to all, Socialist and Corporatist alike. Having lived in NJ for many years and known many good families that live within the Hurricane affected areas, you sir, have offered nothing more than a grossly ignorant comment.

Regardless of who was impacted, perhaps you should think about who may have owned many of the multi-million dollar homes that lined Jersey's Shore and protective barrier islands before spewing the first thing that came to mind. In a sad twist of your words, most of those impacted souls were red-centric, successful Corporatists, Financiers, Retirees and not the blue-leaning purported Socialists that you are wishing more sorrow upon. Many have lost a lifetime of accumulated 'success' in just one storm.

Thank you Sylence for a voice of reason. Wow. To make this a political issue is beyond me. I'm pretty sure Mr Mason has never been up to his chest in water in his home. You are a sad small person to take this to this level. I know karma has something special in store for you.

Thanks Rodney for your charity. Corrine and I had a lovely lunch at the Little Pear today. Thanks.

In my culture, Ms. Claudia, u r the one who will be hit by the karma because you brought it up. I will pray for you. I do not understand your freedom of expression then others threaten or wish harm.
