    try the mini golf place (swingtime) down the 9. Or one of the bowling places -do Howell lanes if you don’t want to be seen. Take a boat onto lakewood lake or Lake Shenadoa.

    DO NOT go on a first date on lakewood lake!! you will get seen by EVERYONE!!

    Well, it is nice. But I’d sure like to see someone go there on a date.

    For a restaurant- go to Deal.

    You could go to Point Pleasant to the Aquarium (Jenkinsons). I’ve seen a date at Allaire Park once. Really Lakewood ain’t a good place for dates. The nearest decent lounge is in Princeton.

    ” The Capitol is a nice hotel. “

    Or for something more causal, you could go to the new amusment park / arcade, “Crazy House”.

    I’ve heard this mentioned that a few times, so you might give this place a try. (wear confortable shoe, though)

    I heard that it’s gross inside but it would definitely be a smart place to go!

    “I heard that it’s gross inside but it would definitely be a smart place to go!”

    That is if you are having a miserable date and want to drop the girl in a hurry.

    In my days it was so bad I had mushrooms growing from the ceiling. I had maintenance remove the carpet which left the concrete slab exposed. It looked like a garage. Thank G-d I wasn’t “parked” there too long.

    All seriousness aside, the boardwalk is always nice, so long as it’s not a weekend.

    Or you could browse the freezer section, to see what’s on sale 🙂

    #775936

    depending on how long you want to drive, but if you’re willing, there are very nice private/quiet parks in staten island.

    #775937

    walter s: Are you serious? You actually think that sitting upstairs at Wegman’s is considered a date??

    Like any dorm, it’s how you keep it. Generalizations are never accurate. Anybody can keep their room neat as a pin, if they want to.

    And like the other dorms are nicer?!?

    I disagree. If, for example, the carpet was old and the paint was peeling, it’s gross no matter how neat you keep the room. I was never inside the Irv so I can’t say if that’s the case there but when someone tells me it’s gross, this is the kind of thing I think of. I was never in any yeshiva dorm so I can’t compare (although I was in a dira).

    Nothing is on sale- looking for a sale in the freezer section amounts to finding the second best bochur in Lakewood. It doesn’t exist.

    Ah, but if you know how to read the production code, you can readily tell which package is soon approaching its expiration date 🙂

    The Irv happens to me a very nice dorm, compared to others. A few years ago, they renovated and now all the rooms have central AC and some have carpet. Plus there is a cleaning crew which cleans the bathrooms every day and vaccums the carpet rooms.

    Bpt, can you just picture it? He brings the girl home and her mother asks the usual – “did you have a nice time?” “Sure, Ma, I can help you with the grocery shopping now. I learned how to check expiration dates. And by the way, chickens are on sale.”

    Sorry. As I said, I was never inside and just going based on what I heard.

    Please MG, tell me my intended joke about the “freezer section” did not escape you.
