Dear Lord

J-Dub took Vegas to a whole other level.

He is currently on the Hangover Heaven Bus, getting straightened out.



This shot was taken right before he blacked-out.





See ya Monday.






Hopefully.

The Three Amigos

Three short years ago, we decided to take the extra time we had, and
use it in a way that might shine a brighter light on our
fair town.

We got a domain name.
A free blog site.
Some +2 corrective glasses from the Dollar Store.
A thirty-pack of PBR Light.
And a free internet signal from our unsuspecting neighbor.

And here is the gem we first posted:

Welcome to theNEWK!


This is your one stop interweb place for all things concerning the New Kensington, Pa. and surrounding areas.

We will have everything from restaurant reviews to local events and personalities.

Check back daily and don't forget to tell your friends.

Amazing and intriguing stuff, eh?


We've seen a lot.
We've learned a lot.
We've met some of the most amazing people, that we likely wouldn't
have had the chance to meet, without this site.

Every time we lack the energy/motivation to make one of our daily
posts, we think of all of the amazing emails we've read over these
few years.


The town made us start this site.
We continue it because of the readers.



We tried to come up with something awesome to do around here.

But we said...


"Screw it, we're going to Vegas."




Wish us luck.

Ask J-Dub (04-25-12)

It's time for another installment of Ask J-Dub.

Why?

Because he's awesome.

As pictured...

Q: You people post like everyday. What's up with that?

Unsigned

J-Dub: We try and post every day of the week. So right off the bat, your
exaggeration bothers me. But I will let it slide. This time.

The reason I will let it slide, is because today is actually a little bit of
a milestone here at theNewk.com.

This is our 800th post!

Not bad, eh?

Sure, sure...

Many of them have been dreadfully written and pointless, but hey, we
aren't charging you to read our drivel.

So go ahead and thank us.

Hell, send us your own email to thenewkblog.com.

Or send us a check.

Huge deal tomorrow, so you gotta check us out.

Hide yo kids, hide yo wives...

Ask J-Dub (04-24-12)

We have been trying to convince our man J-Dub (pictured below) to
pen an advice-type column for us here.


Many of the emails we get at thenewkblog@gmail.com, as us various
questions about different goings-ons.

And out of everyone we know, J-Dub is the man we turn to for advice, and
general worldly knowledges.



So here is a recent email we received...

Q: Some prelim elections are happening soon. Who are you voting for and why?

- T

J-Dub: We generally stay away from politics around here. But since you
too the time to ask, I will shoot a few thought-nuggets your way...

The Congressional race between Critz and Altmire seems to be the
hot ticket around these parts. The two Dem reps are running against
each other in the new 12th District.

With local boy Santorum stepping out of the presidential race, and
Mitt pretty much running away with things, we don't see many folks
leaving their crib for that.

I do know one thing... Altmire signed the crap out of the overpass.

That makes us not like him so much.

Is it Spring yet, or what?

Do It. Or Die.

Go Pens.

Do It. Or Die.

Go Pens.

We Just Don't Care

This video clip has some bad words.

We usually don't use much crude language around here.


But did you see the Pens game last night?!?


Watch this video, bad words and all.

Cause we don't give a damn today.






Do it.

Do It. Or Die.

Go Pens.
