Charlie Stile (The Record) as Chuck Haytaian singing to Joe Doria to the tune of "Scenes from an Italian Restaurant": A bottle of white, a bottle of red / Perhaps a briefcase filled with green instead. / We'll get a table in the back / With the leaches and the hacks / You and me, makin' deals. / A plate of scoon-geel / A thick juicy steak. / Look! another lawyer on the take. / We'll meet here any time we want / At Lorenzo's Restaurant."  And "A bottle of red! A bottle of white! / Trenton's insatiable appetite! / We can watch it any time we want!  At Lo-renzo's Restaurant."

Big league, little league

"...
For our lunch, Christie suggested Pete Lorenzo's, the see-and-be-seen spot near the Trenton train station.
He wore a white shirt and a royal blue tie with owls. Black suspenders held up his pants.
(A shopping trip for smaller suits is in the offing, thanks to Dr. Atkins.)
Christie is tan, the result of coaching his son's Little League team.
And he's pumped, after charging a longtime Burlington County mayor with witness tampering.
After lunch, he'll head home to get his kids ready for the Bruce Springsteen concert - the first of seven shows Christie will see this summer.
(Bringing his all-time total to 89.)
Life and art invariably intersect for the man who may or may not be using his greed-busting gig to further his political aspirations.
Furthering the intrigue, Christie randomly quotes the Springsteen song "Badlands" as the check arrives."

"Poor man want to be rich
Rich man want to be king
And a king ain't satisifed till he rules everything"

Women Senators Honored by NJBIA Affiliates
New Jersey’s women state Senators-Diane Allen, Martha Bark, Barbara Buono, Nia Gill and Shirley Turner-were honored February 4 at a Trenton reception by the New Jersey Policy Research Organization Foundation (NJPRO) and the Women Business Leaders Network (WBLN), both affiliates of NJBIA.

Governor James E. McGreevey was among 160 people attending the program, entitled Five and Counting: an Event Honoring the Women of the New Jersey Senate. NJPRO Foundation Trustee Steve Kalafer and WBLN Member Libby Vinson spoke during the program. Event Chair Charlene Brown of AT&T hosted the event and Assemblywoman Bonnie Watson-Coleman served as master of ceremonies.

"This is an opportunity for New Jersey’s women business leaders to express our appreciation and our thanks to New Jersey’s women political leaders in the state Senate," Brown said "These five women have demonstrated leadership, achievement, intelligence and determination in their public service. They deserve the recognition and thanks of all New Jersey residents."
