djk — 2007-02-22T16:27:41-05:00

Everyone knows Jersey City is the 7th borough or whatever, so you might as well show some love and celebrate the Oscars there. The Mojo Lounge holds a party this Sunday, starting at 7 p.m.

Perks include bar grub in abundance, drink specials, Oscars action on a big projection screen, free raffle tickets, a little gambling action, and--best part, of course--free WiFi, so you can liveblog/drunkblog the results to your heart's content. Who knows, you might even get to meet one of those dudes from Rye Coalition!

Adventure Seekers Get Xperienced

There is nothing quite like an 'adventure-filled' vacation. Your car breaks down, your flight is late, your kid breaks an arm....But what if you could choose a real adventure-filled vacation--and tailor it to your exact specifications.

Check out Xperience Days. The NJ-based adventure-travel/experience company provides customized trips to suit your every desire. These include an Air Combat "g-pulling" dogfight flight in a fighter plane, a private full day of Ferrari racing in a Ferrari F355 or your very own weightless flight on G-Force One (above). They've also got some tamer options like fly-fishing, makeover days and professional dance lessons.

Of course, like most adventures, these don't run cheap. The Ferrari racing goes for $21,000 and the G-Force One flight costs more then the down payment for your house. But still...it's the adult chance to re-live those 'Choose Your Own Adventure' Days.

Karate Kid's Vu

Sometimes you just know that all is right with the world and everything is as it should be.

Ralph Macchio, a.k.a. grasshoppa Danny LaRusso, was spotted dining at Vu. What is Vu? you ask. The restaurant that "infuses New Jersey dining with a Tuscan flair" (huh? we're not sure this is even possible) on top of the Hyatt in stunning Jersey City, NJ.

Man who catch fly with chopsticks accomplish anything.
