mystery

There's a mystery brewing at the Jersey Shore after the discovery of a bottle on the beach in Ocean City, NJ that held a message.

The ticketholder of a lottery ticket sold in Neptune, NJ in March remains a mystery because they've yet to come forward and claim the historic $1.13 billion jackpot.

So this past week I received so many messages, tweets and emails about this “mystery” building that I have seen for a long time in Toms River. I even asked the question “Does This Fall Into the Weird New Jersey Category?” Strange oddities here in the Garden State……

Ok this caught my eye several weeks ago .... where have I been? so I finally got around to getting this article together. It may be a simple answer but you can’t blame me for asking. What is this little building in Toms River? Or maybe more appropriately, what “was” it?

So to recap, growing up here in Ocean County I remembered my Grandparents getting a certain soda which was local to Toms River. The soda came in glass bottles in a crate that when you finished you would return and pick up another case. The soda came in all kinds of flavors. Cola, cream, root beer, orange, grape, black cherry, lemon etc.

Now as far as this mystery, I need listeners help in finding information out on a shop that doesn't exist, I think, anymore in Toms River. My Grandparents would buy this soda and I am trying to figure out what it was?

This is pretty cool, a new movie that was shot here in Ocean County and other parts of the Garden State. The movie is called 6:45 and I got a chance to talk with director Craig Singer (Toms River Resident) to talk about this project with a local connection here in Ocean County.

A strange thing is going on in Brick. It's a mystery that doesn't seem to have a logical explanation, but one that is continuing up to this very day. Most people who shop in Brick have probably been impacted without even realizing it.

I've told you before about shopping site woot.com's famous "Bag of Crap". In fact, we even opened one together a couple of months ago. Well, today I was lucky enough to get another "BoC" and dove right in.

Sometimes, a mystery comes along that's so captivating that we have to try to do whatever we can to solve it. We had fun with The Toms River Horn Honker, but this one is a bit different. We here at WOBM feel like we have a duty to help these letters "get to Heaven". Read on for the whole story.
