29 NJ bars/restaurants busted by Operation Swill

As seen below, 29 places in New Jersey serving alcohol were busted by the undercover Operation Swill for either serving watered down alcohol or substituting cheap booze for expensive brands. What is this, high school? TGI Fridays was the most effective, which can't help their reputation. Honestly, I'm surprised more locations weren't busted, as this seems to be a common issue just from my experience. Read more at MSN.

Chris Christie did something good?

Yes, for once, believe it or not.  Our beloved governor hasn't done too much to woo over citizens of lovely New Jersey, but maybe this will help.  Christie recently vetoed a $420,000 tax credit for the first season of Jersey Shore (codenamed the "Snooki Subsidy").  It won't affect the show too much, but at least New Jersian's taxes aren't supporting that crap.  To quote the governor:


"...as chief executive I am duty-bound to ensure that taxpayers are not footing a $420,000 bill for a project which does nothing more than perpetuate misconceptions about the state and its citizens."


I can't agree more.
