Resolved Question: Needs help with names?
I’m writing a story set in the fictional New Jersey town of Blaire in the county of Monmouth, it is a small waterfront town which deals mainly in summertime tourism and fishing. It is considered a small town yet has an Elementary, Middle and High School, Hospital and it’s own permanent fairground. There is a waterfront promenade with cafe’s, stores and hotels where most of the younger people in town get their jobs. Behind that is a small shopping district and a large suburban area, the story is set in 1970 and I need names for the various places.

1. A Crab Restaurant, family oriented place with a big plastic crab on the face of the building.

2. A cheap gas station with a 50’s style diner inside one of those metallic buildings with the booths and the bar.

3. A pleasant looking waterfront hotel with shuttered windows and potted plants, all the rooms have peppermints on the pillows of the beds.

4. A rather greasy spoon fast food restaurant with a clown as it’s mascot, has a drive through and sells hamburgers, onion rings etc, menu very similar to Dairy Queen.

5. A sprawling country club with a spa, golf course, tennis courts and swimming pool.

6. A small funfair amongst the rocks besides the beach, away from the water. There is a small wooden roller coaster, ferris wheel, a tunnel of love, food and game stalls, a carousel, a crooked house, ghost train and a zipper ride.

7. A family owned pharmacy/drug store.

8. A seedy looking Pawn Shop.

9. A classy looking Coffee Shop with dark leather seats and black and white photography on the walls.

10. A tavern with an inn above, pool tables and a juke box, is known for attracting bikers.

11. The town hall where they hold meetings, have theatre plays and host talent shows and the local beauty pageant “Blaire Teen Princess”.

12. A rather pleasant looking, but slightly run down cinema with 3 screen rooms and a big awning with the magnetic letters on a white board, usually shows matinee.

13. A big drive in cinema on the edge of town which shows horror and sci fi flicks, a popular haunt for teens.

14. A pizzaria with white, green and red tiled walls and a pinball machine up front, the owner is a friendly yet slightly unkempt Italian.

15. A little club with a open mic stage for karaoke, poetry and stand up comedy. Sells hard liqour and the menu mainly consists of seafood.

16. A hardware store, slightly big and has a large parking lot. The owner has a shotgun in his office and has a penchant for making sure teenagers stay out of trouble.

17. A small nightclub on the water front with a bright and zany interior and a dance floor, a mirror ball and a stage for up and coming bands. Owned by a woman called Pinky with pink hair.

Thanks so much for helping me out guys!
the place where they hold Town Hall meetings isn’t the town hall, if it was that I wouldn’t of bothered to list it. Something like the Howard Building or Thymes Theatre
No. 17 is ‘The Flamingo’

No. 16 is ‘Jack’s Home Saloon’

No. 12 is ‘Mainstreet Matinee’

No. 4 is ‘Pledger’s’

No.2 is ‘Cooper’s Gas’ and the diner is called ‘Audra’s’

No. 12 is ‘The Blue Moon Drive-In Cinema’

Resolved Question: Do you think our Immigration laws are too tough?
The shoe is on the other foot and the Mexicans from Sonora don’t like it.
State of Sonora is angry at Influx of Mexicans into Mexico.
Nine state legislators from the Mexican state of Sonora traveled to Tucson to complain about Arizona ’s new employer crackdown on illegals from Mexico .
It seems that many Mexican illegals are now returning to their hometowns and the officials in the Sonora state government are ticked off about it.
A delegation of nine state legislators from Sonora was in Tucson on Tuesday to say Arizona ’s new employer sanctions law will have a devastating effect on the Mexican state.
At a news conference, the legislators said Sonora - Arizona ’s southern neighbor, made up of mostly small towns - cannot handle the demand for housing, jobs and schools it will face as illegal Mexican workers here return to their hometowns without jobs or money.
The law, which took effect Jan.1, punishes employers who knowingly hire individuals who don’t have valid legal documents to work in the United States
Penalties include suspension of, or loss of, their business license.
The Mexican legislators are angry because their own citizens are returning to their hometowns, placing a burden on their state government.
‘How can they pass a law like this?’ asked Mexican Rep. Leticia Amparano-Gamez, who represents Nogales .
‘There is not one person living in Sonora who does not have a friend or relative working in Arizona ,’ she said, speaking only in Spanish.
‘Mexico is not prepared for this, for the tremendous problems it will face as more and more Mexicans working in Arizona and sending money to their families return to hometowns in Sonora without jobs,’ she said.
‘We are one family, socially and economically,’ she said of the people of Sonora and Arizona
Wrong!
The United States is a sovereign nation, not a subsidiary of Mexico , and its taxpayers are not responsible for the welfare of Mexico ’s citizens.
It’s time for the Mexican government, and its citizens, to stop parasitically feeding off of the United States and to start taking care of its/their own needs.
Too bad all the US states don’t pass a law just like Arizona . Maybe that’s the answer, since our own Congress will not do anything!

Too strict?……
The above laws are current immigration laws of MEXICO !!!
These sound fine to me, NOW, how can we get these laws to be
America ’s immigration laws??
WAKE UP, AMERICA -
we are losing our country………
sourcecode
With all due respect.
We are not all “Immigrants”

Most of us may be considered “Legal Immigrants”, or descendents of “Legal” Immigrants.

I have no prejudices against Mexicans. I’ve enjoyed many visits to Mexico.
Prior to their current President, nothing was accomplished for the people. Lots of graft by the government.
(OMG, that sounds familiar).

I speak also from conducting a bit of business there. (Thieves), although we know not everyone is.
