Elizabeth, NJ (birthplace of "Lookers" AND my Husband:) is close to Newark, NJ- but it's not IN Newark NJ- not that near the Airport. Maybe it was so successful they have a "Lookers 2" so I'm not sure. There's actually some cool stuff in Downtown Newark now-(still scary , though) and Downtown Elizabeth has some AMAZING Ethnic Food. (but still also a bit scary). They're both really cities. Just not sure if it would be that close to the airport. I know there was a Go-Go bar in downtown Elizabeth I went to once with my Husband when we were dating that had great Bar food- but I can't remember the name and know it wasn't "Lookers". If you've ever been to Newark Airport- it's just concrete apocalyptic scary around there. The rest of the state is mostly normal- but I think that's why NJ has a bad rep :)

ETA: I tried to check the location of "Lookers" and it tried to attack my computer!!! So forget it :) It's on Dowd Avenue in Elizabeth- which means NOTHING to me :)

ranjake - Dowd Avenue in Elizabeth according to google is at one of the entrances to EWR. I googled it to see if it was indeed the lookers. EWR might night even be Newark. I notice it's sometimes called New York, NJ. Yeah had a panic attack that I'd booked the wrong flights.

Holy Shit! They're travelin' tent preachers with a miracle cure! Congratulations, Andy -- you've got a tent revival healing - breaking new grounds in unReality TV!
Snake oil salesmen, Icy! What next? Does blk regrow hair? Cure impotence? Take your T-cell count way up to all but eliminate the AIDS virus? All that and more!

God, I dislike them so much.

Well, we know for sure it isn't a miracle weight loss cure!

Velvet I think Jax is tweeting for him and is trying to make it look like he is a novice on twitter, like, "Awwww, isn't he cute?! He thinks he can continue tweets!"

I drive by Lookers all the time if it is on Dowd Ave (which is the south end of newark airport) on my way back from Jersey Garden Outlets. It's a big truck route and it is technically Elizabeth. I would send my husband to do reconnaissance, but I would have to disinfect him when he got home.

New York, NJ ??? Never heard of it :) I think there's a West new York, NJ :) I SUCK at all directions- and I've never been to "Lookers" so that must be he one. Getting to Newark Airport is a NIGHTMARE for me- and getting home is worse- ONE wrong turn and I'm hopelessly lost. I've lived her all my life and can barely get around:) It's easier here at the shore- usually. Anyway- glad you got home safe :) I'm pretty sure Newark Airport is in Newark- but Newark and Elizabeth do share a border in places- "Lookers" must be it- so classy :)

Oops Ranjake - posted at the same time. My son plays on a soccer team in the Ironbound section of Newark. Most of the kids on the team are Portuguese. He also used to go to a soccer camp at St. Benedict's Academy, which is not in the Ironbound, but in a much more crime-ridden area. And my boys go to a school in Jersey City. They play a lot of towns near West New York. Now that I am driving around all of these places, they are a lot less scary than I used to think they were. The Ironbound is really a huge ethnic neighborhood with great portuguese restaurants.

But was Asshat wearing a hat?

Shopper, you can always pm me if you need directions around here. Newark is our home base!

BLK cocktails - give it time! They will sell anything possible.

As much as Dinyell is off-her-rocker crazy, I did enjoy that her daughter, Christine, was model-pretty and had signed with IMG, an in-real-life model agency, and not some podunk photography center at the local mall or something. I imagined her going, 'Yeah, bitches. You might think I'm a white trash stripper, but at least my daughter is gorgeous, ambitious, and skinny.' It made me a tiny bit happy for her.

Finestra, I don't know if Jax could be that smart though. I am not sure she can write properly, using "to" instead of "2" and not writing texts like this:

I am gng2b at autism conf11/2 wearing new lpstkLOL.

Oh, I know- really. It's more being careful. I grew up in Cranford and down here in the summers- so when we first got married and moved into half of my in-laws 2 family in Elizabeth- it was a bit of a shock. But I love Jersey City and Hoboken- and parts of Newark (and Elizabeth) are really fun, too. Actually- i think Patterson- by the "Brownstone" was the scariest...

When I read her tweets, I honestly have to slow it down in my head and sound out what she's writing. Do you think she goes through life that way normally? She probably does. They probably all do.

Velvet! The words “Beauty” and “Autism” should always be capitalized!

Here's a scary thought. Think Cow would write a book as a Beauty and Autism expert?
