Rutgers Nation Stand Tall

We didn't make it to the Orange Bowl. But we finished 10-2 and the coach stood up and stayed in New Jersey. So many positive things have come from the success of 2006 for the program. We the fans must support this team and take pride in the great State of New Jersey!!!

History for the Soul....

December 7th is the day that will last in imfay. I now add to that memory the night the Titus Marker was dedicated. The Middlesex County Freeholders along with the Cultural and Heritage Commission dedicated the Titus Marker at last nights meeting. I called upon a small group of people who have supported me in all of my efforts to share this moment with me. Dorothy the educator who keeps my lectures flowing correctly. Bill and Jonathon who encouraged me to discover my hidden talents and face my fears. Ceil the Township Historian who informed me of the program and shares my passion for history. Charleen the wife who's been here for me for 30 years. Matt Watkins who pitched in for the Township Council who attended the Miele fund raiser. Together we accepted the monument and a special moment in my life. And if that wasn't enough a reporter actually mentioned to me that his newspaper enjoys my writing very much, now that's a high honor for a self made guy with one year of college. I have learned in my 48 years on earth that you must recoginize special moments and cherish those moments. The day to day struggles in life can consume, you must find the good moments and cherish them. This was one of those moments for me.
