Do you hate using a public restroom? Jersey Joe checks out your comments and phobias about using public restrooms.
THE 411
What: Public restrooms
Resason: public bathroom and toilet facilities outside of the home
Location: stores, work places, bars, restaurants, train stations
JERSEY JOE RECOMMENDS:
I have to ride the New York City subway to and from work everyday. I always make sure to carry a bottle of hand sanitizer. You never know what you will be touching on the subway and the same goes when using a public restroom.
Since The Claridge Hotel became their own separate hotel, after being sold by Bally’s, the building is in the middle of an amazing transformation. Aside from the renovations to the former casino space, they are renovating several floors of rooms, and continue to add more amenities and many restaurants and bars are planned. I remember playing here during the casino days and always thought the building had a very grand feeling to it. It’s nice to see that the property is in good hands and I look forward to seeing what else they have in store. I really do with them the best of luck. With all of the hotel towers that have closed in AC — the town REALLY NEEDS the Claridge.
Would you brush your teeth with chocolate? Well, Crest has a whole new “Be Adventurous” line of toothpaste. Now, you can brush your teeth with awesome dessert flavors like chocolate or vanilla and more! Jersey Joe puts it to the test and gets your reaction as well!
THE 411
What: chocolate mint toothpaste
Brand: Crest
Campaign Be Adventerous
Released: 2014
Sold: stores coast to coast
JERSEY JOE RECOMMENDS:
I have to admit – the taste was pretty good. If you’ve ever had one of those Andy Candies chocolate after dinner mints – you’ve got the flavor here.
It didn’t seem to lather up as much as other toothpastes do, but my teeth still felt clean and refreshed. However, I didn’t have that total minty fresh breath feeling that you get with regular toothpastes.
I applaud Crest for trying these crazy flavors and hope that they come out with more. They could try cherry or orange toothpaste as well.
These unique flavors will make it easier for kids to try brushing and also act as a treat for adults.
I always like having that minty fresh breath aftertaste with most toothpastes, but you really don’t get that here. This is almost all about the flavor and nothing more… but is definitely worth a try!

Jersey Joe checks into a hotel room, but wants to know — are the throw pillows they put on the bed safe and clean? Find out what you have to say about it…
THE 411
What: hotel rooms
Place: temporary bedroom or living quarters for vacationers and travelers, rented out for cash
Where: global
Length of stay: nightly and beyond
JERSEY JOE RECOMMENDS:
These are just my thoughts. I can’t say for sure, whether the pillows in my room were cleaned or not, but judging by the lint and stains on the pillow – I’m guessing no.
The pillows look great in hotel brochures and on websites, but I have no desire to curl up with one after the person who checked out before me has done who knows what on them. These extra pillows really are unnecessary. They look great in a photo, but in practicality – no. Many hotels add these, thinking they give the room a bonus feature, but for me, they really need to disappear. Hotels had the same problem with heavy comforters that they used to put on beds years ago, but finally got the hint that people really don’t want them, after finding them discarded on the floor on a regular basis. Eventually, this will happen to all of those extra throw pillows as well…
Jersey Joe checks out some hilarious Christmas fun facts from past and present.
The first evidence of Christmas being celebrated is 354 AD in Rome.
THE 411
What: Christmas Day
Date: December 25th
Why: annual celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ
JERSEY JOE RECOMMENDS
Definitely my favorite time of year. New York City absolutely sparkles during the season and all the lights and decorations, almost give the city a feeling of magic… sounds like the old song Silver Bells, doesn’t it!
Make sure you take some time and visit with your family and friends during the season. If you’re far away from family like me, that’s what social media and Skype is for!
Let me take this moment to wish you and yours a Merry Christmas and hope that the fun of the season carries you all year long. At least for me — the extra calories do!!!!
