Come one come all!
Rockaway, the very famous peninsula jutting off New York City, has long been a relatively lightly trafficked stretch of beach even though it is merely a subway train ride from Manhattan, Queens, Brooklyn. Millions upon millions of people right there but generally ignoring it because there has been no place to stay or really eat or much of anything to do.
Until now.
CNN just published a story sure to thrill the local surfers titled: New York City’s only surfing beach is finally primed for overnight tourists.
Surfers, as you know, are lonely and enjoy making friends and get sad when there are no friends to make. Those frown town Rockaway days are over, though, as D.F.Ders (down for the dayers) can now stretch those single days into multiple days and paddle Wavestorms around the inside and go straight on the outside.
It’s actually the only legal surf spot in all of NYC, and, perhaps more importantly: it’s the only beach that gets a surf break.
“You can’t just make a surf break. It’s either there or it’s not,” Jon Krasner, one of The Rockaway Hotel’s partners and owners, explains. Terence and Dan Tubridy, brothers and third-generation Rockaway residents, are the hotel’s other partners, along with Michi Jigarjian.
Not surprisingly, expect to find the requisite surf shops and surf crowd who have either decamped permanently to the Rockaways to divide their time between well, surfing, and whatever work will keep them afloat (sorry, not sorry!) or who won’t hesitate to play hooky if the surf looks promising.
“I had three friends today call in late to work, to come surfing in the morning and then they jumped on the ferry to go into work,” Krasner says.
Putting this past summer aside, Rambaran doesn’t understand why the Rockaways hasn’t gotten more attention worldwide: “it’s baffling that the area isn’t more of an international destination.”
Well, now that the surf life is easier than ever and regular life is easier than ever, millions in the water are almost guaranteed.
Many new friends for existing surfers.
Thrilled and thrilling.
But also, you can just make a surf break FYI. It’s called Kelly Slater’s Surf Ranch or, actually, WaveGarden.
Fun.
Gorilla’s in the missed
2 of the most frightening words ever – regardless of where you fall
on the Liberal <—–> Conservative scale.
Once you bring someone’s mom into your schtick, we all know you’ve lost the argument, and the crowd.
You are awesome.
But it’s not funny, in a way. More tragic. 12 billion years of this lap around universal expansion, to get to their comments…
He didn’t have a chance know his death occurred, or was going to occur. He’s just a ghost wandering the airport roadway confused that he can’t seem to find his ruby ring we took for identification confirmation.
Soleimani got what he deserved.
Don’t feel so bad for Democrats. They deserve their Party’s demise.
The history of Rockaway in a nutshell – it was a place to put the black/poor people. Architect of that was Robert P Moses.

Otto, Bexy, etc.–question for you: how can a Republican President test positive for a Democratic hoax? Asking for 750 friends.
Trump paid over $7 million in taxes. He used tax credits. Learn how taxes work ya schmuck. When companies are sold and that company has tax credits, that tax credit had value just about as good as cash.
When Trump recovers in 7-10 days, the Democratic Wuhan Kung Flu Manchew argument will evaporate. Surprise! It’s October bitches!
Wheres LGR
We need back up!!
Hold the line. We got this!
I’m surprised he wasn’t at the debate.
haha Always “right”
You guys are great, I like to observe/provoke thought. This whole mess is ridiculous.
And his “minor” symptoms landed him in hospital, because that’s where everybody goes with minor symptoms. Schadefreude bitch.
He walked to Marine 1. Don’t put up the party streamers too early you sick fucks. The vileness spewing from blue checks on Twitter is appalling. Fuckers wishing Trump dies.
Going to Walter Reed out of an abundance of caution is absolutely the right thing to do. Dumb fucking WH Press Corp can’t bother Trump or the First Lady at Walter Reed. No admittance bitches.
At least the super-spreader is a fucking smokeshow. https://uploads.disquscdn.c…
It’s an ugly fest with the Dems.
All trans probly

Mask fans?
I don’t want him to die because I want him to simply lose the election.
Mike Pence is actually MUCH more frightening in his sick religious extremism.
The rapture sounds more exciting than a cod red day at Chopes.
The vileness spewing from blue checks on Twitter sounds like copypasta from Shapiros podcast. You really should cite your sources.
Such an apologist. You dotards will believe anything. We’ll all wait for the reply you harvested off Fakebook.
You don’t like the truth much do you? It’s right there, in black and white. In reality, you’re the retard who believes anything the NYT puts in print.
The hoax is seeing the crowds in Wuhan today.
Not a deadly virus
Not worth wrecking economies for but wrecking them works for a socialist agenda.
Question for you
Why is Biden the candidate when a young half black guy or girl would probly beat Trump simply because of their look.
Are they coordinating chaos for their own benefit?
Kamala’s Jamaican ancestors were slave owners. Even when they go half black, the Democrats still have to maintain face amongst the old guard.
Everyone’s ancestry is ugly. Kamala’s real life actions however can be measured accurately.
She’s proven she’ll do anything/anyone to advance her political ambitions. I’m half convinced the Dems want to lose this Pres./VP election and happily wait till 2024 for an empty house just to get rid of Kamala.
Well.. that is a good theory. If they get in now they inherit a pandemic, an economic crisis “like we’ve never seen”, homelessness crisis, civil unrest, states that will outright resist or reject the new president and his criminal hating sidekick.
Let’s face facts here, the Dem’s love the corporations and free trade deals, I think wall st likes them better. Dem’s for the win I’d say Ott’s. So much winning.
The economic crisis is artificial. Just today the Michigan Supreme Court ruled Whitmer abused her emergency powers. All these Governors purposefully kneecapping their economies to hurt Trump. Once again Newsom moved the goalposts on re-opening. Introduces a crazy “Equity Metric”, introducing some batshit crazy critical race theory into Covid metrics.
Our country is resilient, and will push past all obstacles. If only government would get the fuck out of the way.
I have a feeling that Trump is going to capture more black and Hispanics than people think. Hell, even the BET founder basically endorsed Trump. ” Take the devil I know versus the devil I don’t. I’m a businessman…. “.
I tend to agree with you on the critical race stuff and definitely on the resilience of the States.
But there is a health crisis, and I can’t help bit think no matter what the stock market looks like people have lost jobs, like lots o people and that is a huge issue. will the gov bail the little guys out?
Lots of devils around and Kamala is definitely one.
Quick side question – with Trump waylaid, and Pence acting.. is Nancy P Acting VP?
Democrats are definitely not fans of small business. The middle class is the thorn in their side. While many small businesses have been decimated, you’re seeing a movement of populace out of cities and beyond suburbs into rural areas. With that push you’ll see a resurgence in small businesses to accommodate the growing communities.
Trump is still President. Pence is still VP. While some have brought up the 25th Amendment, that is not in play. When Reagan got shot, a 25th Amendment letter was drafted but never signed, even though he went under anesthesia. When GW got a colonoscopy he briefly transferred Presidential power to Chaney under 25th. If Pence were to assume President position, he’d immediately name VP who’d have to be confirmed by House & Senate. In order to maintain continuity, I’d doubt there’d be issue with confirmation.
Absent catastrophic scenario involving Trump & Pence, Pelosi will not be moving her decanter into the Oval Office anytime soon.
Whoa!! Thanks for the education there Ottz.
No one can ever accuse you of not having an informed opinion.
I really hope the wash up for the states from this horror show of a year is small towns and as you say, small bizzo’s that will pop up – elimination of the big nasty corps we don’t need would be great.
Or her gourmet ice cream – what a tool.

Wonder what the local equivalent of the Blackshorts will be called.

The Big Pepperoni’s!
HEY HEY! AH’M SWOIFFIN’ HEA!!!
Hahahaha
How’d you like a details magazine up da wahzooo!!
That looks like an Epokhe ad featuring Craig Anderson and Creed McTaggart.
…it’s not hard, not far to reach.
If there’s a better opening rhyme than;
‘Chewing out a rhythm on my bubblegum
The sun is out and I want some’
I ain’t heard it.
once was an artist turned pipe finalist who move to new york and became rockaways gnarliest local, and that mans name was rick kane.
