: I Can See Clearly Now – Part 2
Last month I reported my difficulties in keeping track of my new eye glasses and how this was affecting the all-important job I have of watching every last Law & Order re-run. I can now report that my ever resourceful family has come to the rescue. For my most recent birthday I received the present of 4 eyeglass holders (see attached pic):
These have been scattered around the house in strategic locations – i.e. where I am most likely to take off and/or leave my glasses. So now, when I can’t find my glasses, I know that they will be in one of 4 places. Of course this requires a bit of discipline on my part – when I take off my glasses I have to remember to leave them on a holder. But so far I seem to be getting the hang of this.
Speaking of getting the hang of things, here are a few places you can hang out this month:

October 11th, Friday, 8:00PM-11:00 – Shuffle Jump & Moan at Trend Cafe, 411 Bloomfield Avenue, Montclair NJ 973-744-1333
Trend Café is a cute and funky little sandwich & dessert place located in the heart of busy downtown Montclair. Please note that I use “funky” in the positive sense of the word here. SJ&M will be doing our usual mix of blues and R&B. One mild warning – when I say “busy” downtown Montclair, this is no exaggeration – downtown Montclair gets packed on Friday Night. You may have to park several blocks away – or in the parking deck. But please don’t let that discourage you.

0ctobert 19th, Saturday, 9:00PM-1:00AM – Better Off Dead at The Great Notch Inn, Route 46, Little Falls (973) 256-7742
Is this a Halloween extravaganza or is it just a regular old run-of-the-mill extravaganza? The prosecution & defense have both rested but the jury is still out.

October 25th, Friday, 8:00PM-11:00 – Shuffle Jump & Moan at The Shillelagh Club, 648 Prospect Ave, West Orange, (973) 509-1134
For those of you who simply skim my e-mails and do not read the details (and I know just who you are) with a name like The Shillelagh Club, you might draw the obvious conclusion that they only feature a particular type of ethnic music, but that is also not the case. The Shillelagh Club happily welcomes visitors of all ethnicities with open Irish arms, has good burgers & fries, and a good selection of on tap beverages (if you are so inclined).
