Busy week in heat for Station 44...

Chief Samarelli is seen at one of the numerous calls last week, which was the hottest week of the year.

THIS MESS FROM A DISCHARGED FIRE EXTINGUISHER was quickly cleaned-up and Casela's re-opened the next day.

Nail Polish finally dries...


Loyal readers might remember that in September 2004, the cast and crew of the independent film Nail Polish filmed in and outside of Big Hearted John's, Lincoln Avenue and the Boardwalk in Seaside Heights. Now that a trailer for Nail Polish has finally hit the internet, we are taking a VERY SPECIAL LOOK BACK AT THE FILMING OF NAIL POLISH. John is seen above posing with actress Paz De La Huerta. Loyal readers will remember...

 



That Paz was ensconced on John's couch for a majority of the night.


FOR AS HUGE AS A STAR AS PAZ DE LA HUERTA IS...


Alexandra Lydon actually is the star, playing the lead role of Allison in Nail Polish.


Here Paz and Alexandra are seen filming at the old Italian American Club raffle car stand.


EVEN THOUGH PAZ WAS DRESSED FOR SUMMER, the temperature was 50 degrees, and the wind was strong, as that day, Seaside Heights was in the fringe end of the remains of Hurricane Ivan, which hit Florida and then rode up the coast.


MONTHS LATER, Big Hearted John got a thank you note from the Nail Polish producers....


And here it is.
