Hi Paul…

I caught some action down at the Shark River Inlet. The Army Corps of Engineers has started dredging the inlet…and this ship is vacuuming sand up off the river bed, filling itself up (low rider), and then, I think…taking it off the coast, dumping it and then coming back in for a little more sucking up! 

I bet they found a few clams and an old sneaker or two down there. It was a raw windy day down on the ocean …but the beat goes on……..

—Bob

    Bob. Alliteration is always a spicy meatball. And yes, wise-cracking is the best form of cracking.

    I thank you for 4 exclamation marks and a fine photograph. “Suck up” indeed. Maybe they’ll find Jimmy Hoffa. I’m watching the Sopranos again, and in an early scene, a wise-guy takes an involuntary leap into the Paterson Falls, so why not the Shark River inlet?
