If you hadn’t noticed, The Anchor took some time off for the holidays. And we needed it. God damn tired I tell you. Not complaining though. Hope you and yours had a merry.
I spent the week fucking moving. In the freezing cold and pouring rain. From one side of Asbury to the other. From east to west. With a pickup truck that started when it felt like it. Yesterday it decided to die in the parking lot of 7-Eleven on Main Street. Went in to tell the cashier my car crapped out and not to tow it. Dude didn’t speak a lick of English. Frustrating to say the least. I let her sit for a few hours, came back and she fired right up. That’s what a 35 year old automobile will do to ya. Not exactly mister reliable. Which sucks when you’re trying to move. Or get somewhere for that matter.
After a lot of late nights painting and countless truckloads back and forth, I’m finally somewhat settled. Which means I can get back to working on The Anchor.
As the new year approaches, I just want to thank everyone for their support of the website. We’ve had a shit ton of amazing response since launching back in October. And we are planning lots of big stuff for 2013. So stay tuned, drink responsibly and Happy New Year. Cheers!

JT – you did what you set out to accomplish this year…you hit it, and hit it hard, embracing controversy while promoting our town, and ruffling as many feathers as possible without regrets or apologies. Congrats on 2012…Onward and Upward for the Anchor in 2013!
Well said Mr. Grillo. Well said.
