No return address, no response
Carmen Rodriguez is a real talent. ("Dating for dummies," Oct. 11). More from her. – Joe Del Priore
As a postal employee, you should know better than sending a letter without a return address. Especially now.
Edible art
Did JoAnne Steglitz get to taste one of Charmaine Jones’ cakes? ("From the catwalk to the kitchen," Oct. 11). The looked really tasty. – Frank, Hoboken
No. The cakes on display are several years old.
Not so strange news
I didn’t think that last week’s "Strange News" was all that strange. ("Dept. of over-extended families," Oct. 11). A lot of people are interested in their ancestry. – Calvin M., Jersey City
A lesson that’s well worth taking: What’s peculiar to one person is another’s family reunion.
Where are the Emmys?
How ’bout an Emmy update?
We don’t know what’s happening with ’em. Get it – "with ’em"?
Sit right back and you’ll hear a tale
Is it true that they’re working on a Gilligan’s Island reunion movie? – Tippy
No. What’s true is that it was on Sunday. Don’t worry – we missed it, too.
Submission policy
The dating scene here stinks and so do the men. Can I write something for you about that? – Brenda & Tori, Hoboken
A popular topic. Sure, write it and send it to us at current@hudsonreporter.com. Send it as an attachment and in the body of the e-mail. You won’t get paid, but you might get a publication credit. And you men out there can send a counterpoint.
