Long Island apparantly has begun to get new Arbys in their malls.

Horray for the king of Yonkers!!!! I heard Charra (sp?) is behind this, and if memory serves me correct he’s the guy who owned Snapple, sold it off, then bought it back for like 60% of what he was paid for it in the first place. This is also the guy who owns half of Yonkers high end retail/office space and has been heavily involved with trying to get approved for the whole on again off again hotel/casino deals just past Westchester. Charra also owns a large stake in Arby’s stock too and this was all before this new “group” of his was setup to roll out more Arby’s in NYC.

I know a bit about the guy because a family member of mine used to be close with one of his son’s playing amateur hockey a few years back, yadda yadda.

The Arby’s in the Sunrise Mall and the other spot have been around for I believe under a year now but why go to Arby’s out there in ‘Pequa when they have a FAT BURGER!!!!! just a mile away?

I love it, rejoice because you MAY work close to an Arby’s sometime in 2018.

My dearest Mamacita:

You may know me better than my own young and vibrant wife! LOL!!

I am indeed thrilled that Arby’s is opening not one but 41 of their spectacular restaurants in New York City.

When my wife and I travel about the country in our luxury motorcoach (and YES, we can easily afford to fuel it up, even these days) we always seek out an Arby’s if Red Lobster and Applebees are not to be found.

I believe those three establishments to provide the greatest value in restaurant dining. And my wife agrees with me, by the way.

CockChug’s wife likes Arby’s because she heard you can’t beat their meat

quite the opposite of her experience with Chuggy

My dear Mr. McBagel (IF that is your REAL name):

I am a man of fine breeding, with an impeccable education, and I can trace my wife’s ancestry all the way back to The Mayflower, if such a personal tidbit enthralls you. HEY! I fear your jealousy of my many blessings is all too clear to everyone here.

Yes, In-N-Out please so that I can do the In-N-Out vs. McDonald’s fries head-to-head that I was too inebriated to do in Vegas!!! No, Zach, I wasn’t on crack; a derivative of crack maybe, but def. not crack.

My old place (before I took up permanent residence in DocChucks backside cavity, if such things excruciate you) looked a lot like that. Err, well, the porch looked like that. Anyway, the Landlord kicked me out after I bit his nuts off.

What my well-meaning but syphillitically-brain-damaged hubby means is that my mama (a rather lusty and energetic lass despite her half ton size, if such things inseminate you) was at the tender age of 16 pleasured by a half dozen moving company workers in the trailer of their Mayflower moving truck. 9 months later….well, you all know how that goes. Except maybe that Bossman fellow.

As far as I know, the Arby’s in the food court at Newport Centre Mall in Jersey City is still there. It’s a short PATH ride from Manhattan.
