Whatever Happened to Crazy Eddie Electronics Stores?

For New Yorkers who watched television during the 1970s and 1980s, Crazy Eddie was almost impossible to miss. A fast-talking salesman waved his arms in front of walls of stereos and televisions, promising electronics bargains with a slogan that became part of the region’s popular culture: “His prices are insane!” The commercials ran constantly, and their spokesman was so convincing that many viewers thought they were watching the real Crazy Eddie.

Tornado watch for Monmouth, Ocean counties

Monmouth and Ocean counties are under a tornado watch until 7 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 12, the National Weather Service said. The watch includes much of central New Jersey and eastern Pennsylvania. In addition, a severe thunderstorm warning has been issued for Monmouth and northwest Ocean counties until 5:15 p.m. Nov. 12. Just after 5 p.m., Asbury Park Press reporters across Monmouth and Ocean counties were reporting soaking rain and “pencil eraser-sized hail” falling across the region, which had left a layer of ice on the ground now and was drowning out conversations inside homes. Manchester Police sent out a public robocall at 5:55 p.m. urging the public to stay off the roads due to “slippery roadways” as a result of the severe weather. In New Jersey, the tornado watch includes eight counties in addition to Monmouth and Ocean. The other counties are Burlington, Camden, Hunterdon, Mercer, Middlesex and Somerset. The severe thunderstorm warning includes northwestern Ocean, central Monmouth, the eastern central portion of Mercer and southeastern Middlesex counties. At 4:39 p.m., a severe thunderstorm was located 14 miles northwest of Toms River, moving east at 25 mph, all according to the weather service. Frequent and life-threatening lightning was also causing
