Uncle Rom's Cabin

Please note, thanks to unspecified budget cutbacks the Town of Newbury no longer has a full compliment of lifeguards on it's beaches. This means that if you want to park and swim on the stretch of beach nearest "Jeanne's" restaurant, you and your family must take your chances.
Of course, Newbury is the only beach where I've seen EMT's show up to deal with an badly injured swimmer. I've also seen the results of a non fatal plane crash there...so all in all you'd think a full compliment of lifeguards might be a good thing seeing as how the beach is usually packed like Coney Island.
IF Lt Governor Healey ever shows up there on one of her pretentious and presumptuous listening tours just drag her boney ass down to Plum Island and ask her to count all the lifeguards.
According to today's Globe, Kerry is a Researcher, so she probably knows how to count.
Ghod knows you'd never get the Governor up there to review the situation, even if you did what gaurantee would you have that the whole sorry situation wouldn't become fodder for one of his hilarious anti-Massachusetts rants down in Spartansburg.
