    Vinnies III pizza in Jersey City on Rt 440 and Danforth have the Best Pizza and Italian food. A family owned restaurant where Grandpa and Unc are manning the ovens.
    Still reasonably priced.
    They’ve been there for years.

    This is where I hung out during my teen years. Loved the Castle Movie Theater and catching the #70 bus to the Livingston Mall from Irvington Center. My 1st baby sitting job was in Vauxhall. The #25 bus took me there. I was 11 years old. In the 70s we grew up fast. Not pampered like these kids today

      @@MattDVThe 71, 72, &73 buses took over that route. They run from Penn Station and go to Saint Bananus Hospital in Livingston and to West Orange and Further up past South Mountain Reservation and Turtleback Zoo. I do not Drive. Once I moved to Orange , I learned the different bus routes. Remember the #2 bus that ran in back of Bambergers? It went to my High School in East Orange in the 70s. Now the #34 bus has taken over that route. I believe when they built highway 280, it split the Oranges apart and that is why some bus routes were discontinued or changed.

      Most of all and most importantly, I am very happy that you went around the earth, one more time for your birthday! Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha - around the Earth? It was nice to see you eating at Popeyes because I go there quite often and I like their chicken. Based on your reviews over the last year, my heart tells me that ambassador has better chicken 🐓, and that’s just the way it looks on you tube?
      🐓🐓🐓 good luck with your meet up today at Ambassador. My health is getting much better and I’m walking again and have 98% mobility now. I wish you and your kids the very best in the new year! And once again happy belated birthday buddy, from your 56 year old and left-handed friend in Delaware 🇺🇸…..
      * can you tell me why you never talk about your girlfriend or wife? Is it because you’re single and just dating? Maybe you don’t like to get that personal? It would be nice to have a video of you going through a day in your life at home, from the time you wake up until the time you go to bed at night and brush your teeth’s! lol….
      😂 it’s like a day in the life of Matt? Maybe people can relate you a little better if they see how you are when you’re not on the streets? Anyway you take care and remember I’m 421 pounds, but I’m happy 😃♥️
