Great Blog on Eastham - until you reach the places to eat....Arnolds, The Friendly Fisherman & The Fairway kick butt over everyone else (food quality & number of guests) In fact the Eastham Lobster Pool didn't even open its doors this Summer. (research ?)

I'm sure that once the steady flow of traffic in and out of the building slows down and the leaves change color and the pace of the lower cape slows down...and all the $ has left town then they'll listen to the concerns of the town and it's residents....

In response to: Younger Kennedys protest "Tropic Thunder" at Mall cinemas
Maybe they had a permit to protest - Marking the first time they didn't consider themselves above the law. It's amazing how many Americans and people across this big blue marble actually fall for the Kennedy mystique crap. Their fortune came from breaking the law - J & RFK are deemed heroes and patriotic during an era when the media would back off from the true grit and Teddy gets a slap on the wrist while a young woman is being buried. Thats just a sample of the long legacy - now most of them support a canadite with a long history of related racism , little political experience but he's African - Muslum so the liberal guilt arouses another chorus of kumbyah along with smores around the compound campfire....

Flush the owners and the crooks of Wellfleet down into their own overworked drain. They are the most arrogant bunch of bafoons ever to pretend to run a business. No one is falling for the strong armed tactics of the little boy and the playing dumb act of the old woman anymore. The town should just take it over and either tear it down or operate thier own eatery the honest and healthy way. Someone should stand in line and explain to the visitors about the hazards lurking inside.

Why This Movie ? Is this the only movie ever to mention the "r" word ? Since when does political correctness and the Kennedys have anything in common. Also, a Ben Stller movie is the least of Leo's problems at the Mall - he should be working on a major promotion so that we the people feel safe enough to shop at the mall during the holidays with the little money we have - how about replacing santas helper with the national guard.

In response to: Star Speakers for Obama Fundraiser in Truro
OH PLEASE THIS ! you feel good democrats will do anything to win an election...great track record - Al Gores meltdown following his defeat....Clinton destroys the ecomony...Carter is a laugh...Bush is the worst ? - Check Kennedys approval rating about 2 months prior to his assasination - lower than Bush at his lowest (fact not fiction)I never said I love Bush - but i will offer this - McCain is a hero - a war vet - a long time leader in Arizona and the Whitehouse....O.B. raised a muslum , until he went to college and changed his name to Barry...then he hooks up with one of the most dangerous churches in America...20 years later when the world finds out that he mixes and mingles with some of the biggest racists in the USA he quits the church..Finally America is seeing thru his scam and the poll numbers are dropping and his answer to all of this is to be a bigger flip flopper than Kerry could ever imagine being... ...3 cheers for 9/21/08 - McCains First Day

In response to: Star Speakers for Obama Fundraiser in Truro
If the economy is in such a mess why are so many throwing big bucks in the direction of a socialist...Hanging with the Clintons puts you in the loser pool as well. Wake up Lower Cape - Obama & the Clintons = Together We Can't....I love the "insert" applause here markers...Basically what it comes down to is if Obama is President we're all screwed - why can't the Dems see thru the inexperience (143 days as a) Sen. who ran unoppsed before a billionaire decided to introduce him to the Presidential race, the man can't speak without a script, the angry at America wife syndrome and the Rev Wright was my Bud for 20 + years Obama...and least we forget the amazing turnout in Germany - a nation of Anti-Americans - do some research media and realize the crowd wasn't there for B.O. - it was a "rockfest" concert with the hottest bands in Europe - not to mention it was a Beerfest as well- those are the facts and the reason behind the few "signs" of support in the crowd....a photo opt at the most....

I hear you possee...The back scratching gang on Beacon Hill at thier best. One more question for the Big "D" at the "Town Meeting" ...Is there a conflict of interest that his wife stands to cash in if the Wamps do the same ?

In response to: 1961: JFK signs bill authorizing the Cape Cod National Seashore
After putting pen to paper JFK headed home to Hy-Port to relax with a drink on the deck to soak in the view - one left untouched by the seashore plans...meanwhile thousands on the lower Cape suddenly realized their summer homes will soon be taken away. The idea was right - the plan was wrong....those already there should have been allowed to stay with no new homes allowed to be built - unless you have status, cash and high priced lawyers.

I almost forgot...Why is it the people of California can vote yes or no to finalize gay marriage, but the bay state voters cannot - could it be because D's daughter is gay ?

In response to: Is arrogance spelled WCOD?
I know the parking area very well. Most H-Plates wouldn't park there because of the tiny opening to the old ramp. The front - where the stores are located has a smoother ramp with less effort required. It's hard to believe that "arrogance" was behind the thought pattern of whomever was in that vehicle -especially with signage across it. The right thing to do would be to leave a note or to approach the vehicle operator and let them know that it's an H-Spot. Cape Cod Today has several bloggers, many of which have key concerns to report to the public, I however consider this neither a case of arrogance, nor a story worthy of internet space. Next time - leave a note.

Let me begin by saying i think we all agree its very sad when someone dies and if you were in the police officers shoes you would have done the same thing. Anyone who says shoot out the tires has never seen a police chase on the l.a. freeway...since when does shooting a tire out stop a car from running...speaking of running - thats exactly what this illegal was doing...he had a long list of problems and all of a sudden the woman who had a restraining order against him for abuse - who was cruising into the 'weed" hours with him is calling him a good man with his own company - "illegal company' - who was watching the kids at 1 am when you were out ? the kids who are your passport against deportation because they were born on our soil - not yours...this idiot was a criminal- period. an illegal one to boot ... i feel for those who come to america to earn a living and to raise a family the honest way...not the way this guy did...now i hear talk of a brazilian uprising - i say bring it on, but they won't because they'll be sent home either in coach or in a body bag.
07/27/08 @ 12:52 pm
I'm sure glad to see that capecodjon got his masters in criminal investigating - who else can make such an ass-umption after gathering all of his facts from a web blog.... CCJ - How was the driving test at sears to get your license and let me guess - you were at the top of your class at your on-line legal university or was it from the back of a matchbook....don't get so upset when it was your original comment that got you into the pickle in the first place.....also to Crusader - you must be from wellfleet because you're intellect is that of the same crew who supports that feces clam shack that broke the law for years and now faces the truth...you probably read dougs cc times article and took it as it seems - a noval about a good kid up against bad people...ambushed my butt - the kid was armed and ready - he was too much of a coward to take himself out and now the blame is shifted to a middle school incident - whatever ! who wasn't tease or beat up as a kid ? You must think every cop on the cape is bad and all the villians are kids who just had it a little too rough growing up...

In response to: Shame on the Sparrow
The trash, i asume that the recycling comment is directed at the town of Orleans and not at the Sparrow - who at last check has recycling bins inside for customers and should not be expected to gather and labor over the trash of others. The skateboard park argument is weak - the park at the edge of the middle school grounds is a nice area for sidewalk surfers to gather and to hone their skills. Unforntunately for the kids in Olreans there are no all-season gathering spots to hang out and do their thing - The juice bar in its infancy was a failed experiement but my research shows that a new gorup of concerned adults and kids are working to find a suitable location to get it right this time - live and learn at its best - but fortunately for the locals kids - this summer will bring more job opportunities due to the visa fiasco and unlike the real "tough" teens in inner cities - they have ponds , lakes, the bay and the ocean for their downtime playground. Just skate or ride your bikes down and enjoy. The only pirecing sound there are the gulls, the surf vacationers and their laughter.

In response to: Shame on the Sparrow
First of all , let me say that I only frequent the Sparrow on occasion. Two or three times a year. What bothers me most about Brandy's comments is her lack of gathering facts before voicing her opinion.The most important information thats not available here is that the "sound" device, to my understanding is used after hours during the summer mostly to avoid unwanted crowd gathering which may in turn lead to littering at the least and property damage at the most. Unfortunatly for kids at anytime in US history - not all are angels. For instance Brandy, are you aware of the Halloween incident of vandelism (fact) - directed at the Sparrow. Not just another instance of 'kids being kids".
Brandy has the right not to spend any money at the Sparrow or any establishment she doesn't want to and she has the right to voice her opionion , but I just figured that Dan McCullough would most likely agree that the "magic" that todays college students are creating would include fact researching - and that should reveal that these "kids" aren't all in college. As for the trash (see the next response).

Well done Tony...Bud Selig is already going down in history as the WORST MLB Prez ever. Now his gameplan includes milking the CCBL ... Whats next Babe Ruth, Little Leagues and the like ? I always believed that MLB owned the copyrights to team names "Boston Red Sox"," Oakland A's", etc. - not just the "nicknames"...Great idea about the $1.50 , some games draw 1 to 2 thousand fans so lets make it a buck and call it even - build up a treasure trove and copyright everyword in the dictionary then MLB will owe CCBL when they expand...Bud has allowed baseball to ruin itself, couple that with the players union and greed and coruption has over shadowed our national pastime.

In response to: The Bookstore Restaurant in Wellfleet May Face Closure by Town
Hey barelyinterested,

Thanks so much for correcting a spelling error...Wow, if only I lived in Wellfleet I could have had my comment covered up by the cover-up crew. And only one spelling error per post would have put me atop the class at good old Wellfleet High.....Oh wait a minute...there is no Wellfleet High...As far as the inbreeding is concerned, look at the history of the town...Did you know that when the 1800's became the 1900's the town of Wellfleet had more twins and triplets than any town in America. They all stuck around and married townies and so on , and so on...Not an insult - just historical fact. It's time the hammer can down on whats happening in Wellfleet, Thank you Peter for informing us...The bees nest has been knocked from the tree branch and the swarm doesn't know what to do ...

In response to: No Sale Sign
I'm willing to bet that the owners of these businesses are looking across the water from their sun splashed living room windows today as they read this latest rain on their parade report. They have money and probably have homes right on the water overlooking the sound.

In response to: Small town politics destroys a "Pearl"
I've been around the lower cape all of my life with the exception of a few years now and then. #1) Locals in Wellfleet and Townies are two different breeds - Most locals came from off cape and have made enough money to live in town and to spend it....#2 Most townies are uneducated, seasonally employeed because whats the point of getting off the barstool, washing your body, having your teeth attended to so that you have to leave town to find a "going places" job. The Blog says it all...The snakes in the grass are now caught in the jar for the entire world to see. They will fall in both the respect and the financial departments. P.S. The Bomb Shelter is a "Hole" and those that defend its presence as a place for the lower cape/townies to gather in the off season should realize one thing....The drinking problem in this town far outweighs the rest of the cape including P-town. Go get em' state boards.....

usps02651,

Shame on you and your obvious Democratic Party attitude towards female drivers. The goof-ball who ran the red light is an idiot and should have his liscence taken away so that when i see another adult male riding his bicycle i'll know another loser has been stripped of his privilage to drive in my state. "usps02651" - ignorance like your present and past comments shows a lot about your educational background, if you have any at all (Cape Tech doesn't count). You are a prime example as to why I hold a P.O. Box in Orleans (02653) even though I call Eastham home.

If the same sex appreciation party believes they are the majority...they are wrong ! How many votes are cast in P-town, North Hampton, Key West and San Fran ? Do they honestly believe any President with a (D) next to their name would 1) propose same sex marriage countrywide and 2) get the support from the house & senate on such a matter. The majority of the country is Conservative and believes in the Bible, You are neither.
12/24/07 @ 6:14 am
Hey Wampfacts,

Are you reading the same story we are ? You seem to be defending the attacker, the drunk, the lawbreaker...What do you know that we or the press don't ? Please enlighten us....
11/14/07 @ 4:53 pm
Just A Suggestion: How about a seperate blog/thread for the firefighters and their fans. A news blog isn't where this "story" or these "responses" should appear. Remember that the taxpayers who are supporting the families of these adult children wouldn't be happy to see this...How about working when you're on the clock

An update on your story regarding MRSA ... I just read on the Cape Cod Times website ... that WQRC had it WRONG ... They might have aired Matt Dees' electronic message ... but they NEVER called him to confirm the details ... It's time to rethink using that half butt news staff as a trustworthy news source!
