That's quite a story, L, (may I call you L) It's wonderful you have so manyOriginally Posted by LMaze
varied experiences to relate. You sound like an interesting guy with a
good heart. And a gentlemen. Yes, I remember you stepped up to defend me when it became very uncomfortable here. Your kindness toward me was
appreciated, thank you.

My Sister and her husband lived in Colts Neck...I built and sold a home in Las Vegas after being there 13 years.. I was a Union carpenter and then a Superintendent for Bovis at the Venitian Hotel and casio and also a Super for Flour Daniels at the Aladdin Hotel & Casino... I was one of the first at the beginning of the real estate boom to sell my home that I built personally for $23 a Sq Ft and sold it for $200 a sq ft and after their was a threat of a dirty bomb in one of the hotels in LV I decided to buy a handyman special in Colts Neck... I know you would know where it is because its on Holmdel rd.
In the last 3 years i have been doing new retail construction....Ruels in Freehold mall and another Ruels in Anapolis and a Gilly Hicks in CT. and a Hollisters in the Garden state mall in NJ.... Well that all ended right around Christmas so now Im thinking about going back to work for Bovis on the freedom tower but Im not crazy about commuting to manhattan....
Thats about it....If you ever need a experience person in all aspects in residential or commerical construction let me know....Im 50 years old now but by the time i was 44 years old I had over 3 bil of commerical hotel, casino and mall construction under my belt.....I'll proberly bump into you sooner or later if not at the Jersey Shore, The Stone Pony , AC or Homdel Park or something.....Take it easy Tony
Julie: thanks for the kind words. You can call me L its fine and I will let you in on a little secret. When I first started to post I made a typo and it came out LMaze but it should have been LMazz which is the initial of my first name and the first four letters of my last name. I never changed it and I kind of like it.
So you are a banker? Where did you go to School? I actually went to college in New York City at Fordham University and I when I graduated I got my MBA before I went to Tulane Law. I use my business degree more today than my law degree.
Tony (sworntofun) we are exactly the same age. I know where you are on Holmdel Road, I picked up dinner at Cafe Victoria tonight when I got home from work.
I own the building not far from you that has Neuhaus Realty in it, Make a right on Main Street and I'm usually there in the mornings in my office reading the paper before I go to Brooklyn.
The commute to the Freedom tower really isn't that bad, most of Holmdel is doing that trip since you know who lives here and what they do. But won't you be working on off hours?
your son sounds like a bad ass heh
Trip:You would think that he's a bad ass, but he's actually very quiet and very professional. He's been around the world with his snowboard, including New Zealand and he has some really cool rider friends, one of whom is Lindsey Jacobellis who won the silver medal at the last Olympics. When she is not out doing the world cups Lindsey rides at Stratton and its quite an experience to snowboard with Lindsey. She is an amazing athlete and quite a special person too. I'm actually pretty tight with her dad Ben and her brother Benny. Really nice family.
Between me and you it is fun to take some of his swag from his sponsors and wear it while I'm snowboarding. Then I become the bad ass.
In the summer he goes to Vancover or Mt. Hood to ride and have a good time with "the bros"
LMaze...
My house is on the corner of Crine and Boundry...you have proberly drove by it a thouand times....My Brother in law owns Varrazano Flooring...I know you have seen his trucks all over....Im in Orlando Fl. hanging out at our time share I purchased 3 years ago...Bonnet Creek I will be back home after friday night....You will have to stop by some time and I do go your way occasionally....I've know the building...anyway its a small world...If their is evey anything I can do for you dont hesitate to come by...
Tripp is one of the first people I met on SiriusBuzz a while ago and it would be great to get together with him sometime this sommer and hangout and show him NJ........
PS I was born in Queens, Moved to California when I was young, returned to Staten Island later and all my family is from Brooklyn, so i know we have to know some of the same people........ Talk at ya later Tony
Sworntofun: Your brother in law did my assistant's floors in her home on Staten Island, really small world.
It sounds like the three of us are about the same age. We would light up AC no doubt.
No, Jones did NOT get rid of the cancer on the team... he is still the QB.
I don't think T.O. was nearly as detrimental to the team as T.R. He is just SOOO inconsistant that I really do not think there is any way the Cowboys can get to the big game with Romo under center. And yes, I enjoyed every bone crushing sack as well. =)
Die cowboys die, niners all the way
