"Gateway to Brielle"

Did you ever stop to think what greets people at the entrance of Higgins Avenue, our “Gateway to Brielle?”  It’s two liquor stores.

This led me to find these funny sayings:

I saw a liquor store and drank it.

Nothing says “I mean business” like using a cart at the liquor store.

Liver is evil.  It must be punished.

To drink or to drink more that is the question?

I only drink on days that end in “y.”

School’s starting.  Teachers, you can’t hit the kids, but you can hit the bottle.

Holidays mean family.  We sell liquor.

We have enough liquor to make your in-laws tolerable.

Give her wine for Mothers Day because you drove her to it.

 

Got any more?

 

Happy Independence Day!  Drink up!

The Las Vegas Strip of the East

Brielle’s Union Avenue (Route 71) is starting to look like Las Vegas.  Rella’s multi-message sign is an eyesore.  It may just be the first of many to come.  Imagine driving through the borough talking on your hand held phone while trying to read every changing message either hawking weekend entertainment, cost of haircuts, or free air for tires.  Once our town fathers have allowed a single flashing sign, they can’t deny other businesses the same.  Route 71 will soon be the Vegas strip of the East.  Higgins Avenue may have signs touting exercise classes, keg prices, bouquets, or early bird specials similar to the one already in existence.  Once you open the door, it can’t be closed.
