is the total amount of hits on this page thus far.


To our loyal viewership, we apologize that since January 2011, the popartpete.com INTERNATIONAL CYBERSPACE STATION had been placed on...

MOTHBALL STATUS, as we underwent some renovations.

ALTHOUGH WE EMBARKED ON A HAZARDOUS AND TECHNICALLY UNEXPLAINABLE JOURNEY INTO THE OUTER CYBER-STRATOSPHERE, the bottom line is this:

The original, often unreliable popartpete.com CYBERSPACE SHUTTLE


HAS BEEN RETIRED, and....

all future missions to the popartpete.com INTERNATIONAL CYBERSPACE STATION will be launched via the far more stable....


popartpete.com X-37 launch platform!

SO, NOW ON WITH OUR REGULAR AGENDA....


THE BIG 4-0 CLUB:  Shannon Asch, Kerry Fosbre, Kim Samarelli, Alicia Marino, and Pete all were or will be 40 in 2011.  Pete's big day was Saturday May 14th.

Congratulations in order for Tracy....


Tracy Lizardi, who is the Deputy Borough Clerk in Seaside Heights was married on the beach at Hiering Avenue on Sunday June 19th.  Although there is great footage, it will have to wait until next time, for of technical issues. CONGRATS TO TRACY & CHRIS, Mr. and Mrs. Clifton now.

Pete's final thoughts:
Quote #1
"I really believe in empty spaces, although, as an artist, I make a lot of junk. Empty space is never-wasted space. Wasted space is any space that has art in it. An artist is somebody who produces things that people don't need to have but that he, for some reason, thinks it would be a good idea to give them." -Andy Warhol

QUOTE 2:
"Here's what I found out.
You're not ANYBODY in America unless you're on t.v.
I mean...what's the point of doing anything is no one is
watching. And if people are watching, it makes you a better
person...
Life is a learning experience.
Everything is part of a big
master plan.
But sometimes, it's hard to read.
It's like if you get too close to the screen, all you can
see is a bunch of little dots. You don't see the big picture
until you stand back.
But when you do,
everything comes into focus.
In this computer age, it's the medium of television that
joins together our global community.
And it is the television journalist who serves as messenger...bringing the world
into our homes, and our homes into the world.
Thank you

And lastly....


THERE THEY ARE, AND THERE THEY'LL STAY.  Someone gave Pete some good advice once, and it was this: "Never let those Ruby Slippers off your feet for a moment, or you will be at the mercy of the Wicked Witch of the West!"
