Take Out, Jersey Style

As their jingle says, "More Selection. More Fun. More Fridays!

A former aide to James E. McGreevey said today that he had three-way sexual trysts with the former governor and his wife before he took office, challenging Dina Matos McGreevey's assertion that she was naive about her husband's sexual exploits.

The aide, Theodore Pedersen, said he and the couple even had a nickname for the weekly romps, from 1999 to 2001, that typically began with dinner at T.G.I. Friday's and ended with a threesome at McGreevey's condo in Woodbridge.

Well, it must be true, because right there on the menu is a Friday's Three-For-All.*

Seems a bargain at $9.99.

*hit 'cancel' and you can preview the menu; no need to print it.

In the "Most Embarrassing Governor" contest, I'd have to say that New Jersey is in the lead once again. Go Jersey!

We don't take these challenges from NY lightly, Bill!

Exactly, anything New York can do Jersey can do better. They think Buffalo is a rough place? We got Newark and Camden ahead of them on the list.

Maybe NJ and NY can eliminate this competition by merging into one state. Sure, we'd lose a lot of entertainment potential, but at least American politics wouldn't suffer as badly from one upmanship.

Who's suffering, Jeff?

Look at all the papers this has sold!

The ad revenue generated!

I wonder if I can ask for "The McGreevey Table" at the Woodbrige Fridays.

That may be worth a road trip, Bill.

Get a room, you two! Oh wait...

When we used to play in Elizabeth, my hockey team would stop in at that Friday's every Monday night for a late dinner. That was, thankfully, as far as it went.

Excuse me while I go shudder for a bit.

New York: "A governor and a HOOKER!"

Slaps cards on the table.

New Jersey: (smirks) (provocatively sucks Chicken Wing sauce off fingers before replying) "I'll see you one closet GAY governor, his foreign BOYTOY and..." (pregnant pause) "...his WIFE!"

Flings cards dismissively to table.

New York: (disgusted) "Fold." (proceeds to do exactly that to napkin)

New Jersey: "Never go in against New Jersey when SLEAZE is on the line!" (scrapes TGIF's Nine Layer Bean Dip chips off table into pocket and continues to suck)

"When we used to play in Elizabeth..."

Watch out folks, 'Fly is a playa.

Mr. Bingley, I said that American politics suffers, not the entertainment industry. Oh, my, no!

"Never go in against New Jersey when SLEAZE is on the line!"

And people wondered why Mr. Bingley lives in NJ!!!!
