MULTIPLE FIRES on the barrier island in the recent past…

Mike Cerosky of 23rd Avenue in the South Seaside Park section of Berkeley Township lived in one of the two houses that caught fire on the street on the afternoon of Thursday April 23rd. Mike said all his gas appliances began smoking at once, and right after he was able to cut electric and gas to the house, a huge fire erupted.

UTILITIES PERHAPS TO BLAME?  While Seaside Park firefighters were busy fighting the Cerosky house fire, this house directly across the street suddenly burst into flames as well.

SMOKE WAS SEEN COMING FROM EVERY PART of the Sawmill, at Stockton Avenue and The Boardwalk in Seaside Heights.

img_2448
Look carefully, and you can see smoke is pouring out of every opening in the two-story embattled bar & restaurant. The Sawmill sustained heavy smoke and water damage as a result of the fire.

THANKS AGAIN MATT SEMERARO, who got these exclusive shots of inside the Sawmill for readers.

THIS IS NOT THE WRIST OF THE VAMPIRE LESTAT after Claudia fed from him. It’s Pete’s surgical scar from his carpal tunnel surgery 4/24.

img_23791
This is another angle of Pete’s incision, which has a small complication, a minor infection.

img_23801
PETE’S CYST is gone. Doctors believe it was the result of pressing so hard with a pen for 35-plus years. Pete has been drawing and writing daily since he could first hold an implement.

“YOU DRESS ME LIKE A DOLL, YOU MAKE MY HAIR LIKE A DOLL, WHY?”

WRIST INJURIES SUCK!!! No wonder LeStat refused to “people the world with vampires” after making fierce killer Claudia.

PETE SHOULD LIVE, in spite of an impending pandemic…


PETE’S MOM & DAD had him innoculated for the SWINE FLU IN 1976.


Thanks Harry & Betty!!
