       WoW! Mom-TAZ! This place really rules. It's SOOOOooo much cheaper than Madhattan, and the space, wow, you can drive a truck in there! It's not too far from Badhattan, just a short hop, skip n'jump on the PATH. I had a lot of fun hanging out with some regulars from the Arabic Club, listening to my good friend DJ Deraja (Anthony) spin some hip shaking music. Thanks to everyone who came out, and, especially, to Dale and Birnur for putting the event together!
