    Here in My Town – Clifton, NJ

    Posted on November 25, 2008 by R. Richard Hobbs

    My office is located and I live in Clifton, NJ, about 10 miles from midtown Manhattan. It’s a pretty typical north New Jersey working-class town, we have a city hall, a high school and other lower schools, a number of small business storefronts, and shopping mall at the edge of town. We also have a number of parks and one that I drive or walk (past or thru) often is Eddie Mayo Field, on Clifton Avenue.

    Lipstick Jungle Shooting in New York City

    Posted on October 21, 2008 by R. Richard Hobbs

    I was walking down Varick Street in Manhattan and noticed NBC-TV’s Lipstick Jungle’s trucks, indicating they were shooting on location nearby. I know it was Lipstick Jungle because they had a New York Mayor’s Office of Film Theatre & Broadcasting filming permit and had posted MOFTB / NYPD “no parking” signs around the area. The name of the production filming is always on the “no parking” signs.
