We "old timers" sure remember Oakland Beach ,before the '54 hurricane.We had a merry go round, a theater,a bowling alley,a roller skating rink and a lot of ways a kid could make a buck at any of the many restaurant's..and the ones who had a boat, and/or rakes could make out O K. And delivering papers for Miss Booth or working on Morris'and Confreder's Farms was always to help out with the bills in the house, and take home some allowed amount of vegetable. Same with Mr Mayette's seafood company,and the Real "Jimmy the Greek" would work you on the weekends..as long as you stayed out of the customer's way.And Mickey Stevens would send you to Jefferson Blvd. to load trucks...Communistic Greedy Unions again...
And oh yes Mr.Filippi we were all "communistic greedy union people"...I know 2 Republican gentleman who constantly berate the Unions and Democrats.And their wives are retired UNION teachers who are covered by Their pension. If you saw the F D R program on P B S,and are old enough,you would understand.Not that Ike didn't make a reference to Industrial- Military complex ,that is really screwing things up.
Imagine we are committed to these F-35 planes to knock out terrorist in Toyota trucks.Talk about firepower.!!
All Priorities Peter,,Myself if I am lucky enough to get Back to R I I hope to see a citizen's park next to the Aldrich Estate.
I made reference to all that was Good about Oakland Beach. For when the people came from" big cities". the Locals with Warwick's finest ,
kept "law and order".....lemme see..how many Acres of water slide ,and how many for Parking.????
Where will I sit with all my grand kids...I'll help with the design for a Park... Non Union and free...is that O K Pete?
