-2pm<br />
Every week, the Exit Zero crew goes for lunch (or dinner or,<br />
maybe even on occasion, breakfast) at one of Cape May’s excellent<br />
dining establishments. Then we give you the skinny on<br />
what we ate, what we talked about (or some of what we talked<br />
about), who spat their drink from laughing too hard, who served<br />
us, who we bumped into and, you know, the general lay of the land.<br />
The place: Hemingway’s Restaurant on Beach Avenue in Cape<br />
May. You’ll find this year-round steak and seafood restaurant inside<br />
the Grand Hotel.<br />
The vibe: It was a quiet Tuesday and they had just turned over from<br />
breakfast to begin serving lunch. We decided to pick up some takeout<br />
before heading back to the office after a morning of riding bikes through<br />
town collecting content for social media and some upcoming promos.<br />
Special shoutout to Jonathan Hirsch and the Boarding House for lending<br />
us a few of their bikes for the adventure. They partner with Priority<br />
Bicycles to offer their guests a nice cruise through town during their<br />
stay. Check them out at boardinghousecapemay.com — might be time<br />
for a staycation or to book next year’s trip to Cape May.<br />
The food: Anyway... back to what we ate for lunch! Hemingway’s<br />
lunch menu is full of soups, salads, sandwiches and some seafood<br />
dishes that are quite tempting. We opted to keep things simple.<br />
Kayla enjoyed a chicken Caesar wrap with French fries, Katie went<br />
for a chicken quesadilla served with salsa and sour cream, Nicole had<br />
the turkey club wrap with fries and Courtney the French onion soup.<br />
Important to note all our fries were piping hot — a takeout detail we<br />
always pay close attention to. All our meals — a couple of which we<br />
saved half of for dinner — were both tasty and filling. Hemingway’s is<br />
not a place to skip when making your lunch plans.<br />
The takeaway: Hemingway’s restaurant is open daily, serving<br />
breakfast daily 8-11:30am, lunch 12-3:30pm and dinner Sunday-Thursday<br />
4-9pm and Friday-Saturday 4-10pm. The Bar in open<br />
Sunday-Thursday 12-10pm and Friday-Saturday 12pm-1am. They’re<br />
Prime Rib night every Wednesday is a can’t-miss night out and their<br />
fall specials are worth a try which include wild mushroom pasta and<br />
chicken picatta. Football Sunday is another good time to visit Hemingway’s.<br />
They’ve got the games playing, beer flowing and plenty on the<br />
dinner menu you’ll want to feast on.

Bird Droppings<br />
Dispatches from the nation’s birdwatching capital… by Seymore Thanu<br />
Times were that Cape May’s tourist<br />
economy shut down after Labor Day.<br />
But now that Cape May has been<br />
widely recognized as a bird watching<br />
Mecca, the season has extended to<br />
at least the Columbus Day Weekend, when<br />
hundreds of eager hawk watchers descend for<br />
what has come to be the peak of the autumn<br />
hawk migration at “the Migration Mainline.<br />
On Saturday of Columbus Day Weekend,<br />
the hawk watch platform hosted over 200<br />
avid hawk watchers from all across North<br />
America. The park parking lot was as full as<br />
a Saturday in summer. Included in the lot<br />
were two 15-passenger vans from Virginia<br />
and their contingent of hawk watchers.<br />
The hawks didn’t disappoint, once the<br />
winds turned northwest and the sun began<br />
perking some thermals, there was never a<br />
moment when hawks were not in the air.<br />
Peregrines were regular, feisty Merlins<br />
sparred over the dunes, Kestrels zipped by<br />
in spurts. CMBO’s seasonal interns made<br />
sure every passing raptor was pinpointed<br />
and identified. They even offered free tutorials<br />
on raptor identification. Many visitors<br />
have made the weekend a 20, even 30-year<br />
tradition, but more fascinating for me were<br />
the many first-timers who saw the standing<br />
crowds and came up to see what all the<br />
excitement was all about. What they got was<br />
not only a lesson in natural history but a<br />
glimpse into a parallel universe. Bird watching<br />
might have been a closet avocation once,<br />
now its mainstream and I was taken by the<br />
many makes and models of binoculars that<br />
have, after five decades of evolution, excel in<br />
the hawk watching arena, first among them<br />
Swarovoski Optik, the sponsor of the hawk<br />
watch. Built in Austria, the optically fine<br />
instruments are a favorite among birders,<br />
and rightfully so. As someone who has visited<br />
the Swarovski factory, I can assure you that<br />
the quality control surpasses all but the most<br />
exact standards. You can even test drive a pair<br />
on the platform. Prepare to be wowed!<br />
You say, you tried bird watching but found<br />
it frustrating? I say you had lousy binoculars.<br />
Try it again with a glass suited to the task. Go<br />
up on the hawk watch platform, find out what<br />
instruments serious birders are using. And<br />
train a loaner Swarovski on the waterfowl<br />
dotting Bunker Pond, the green speculum on<br />
a Green-winged teal, winking in the sun, will<br />
blow you back to a brain stem.<br />
Try it. The Cape May hawk watch from<br />
now until the end of November, it’s the natural<br />
history spectacle in your own backyard.<br />

Ah sweet nostalgia! It’s present in<br />
almost every rebooted franchise<br />
nowadays. You would think it’s a<br />
recipe for success by pleasing<br />
both new and old crowds. But is it<br />
always? The Exorcist: Believer uses nostalgia<br />
when it fits the plot but refuses to adhere to<br />
already established source material. David<br />
Gordon Green’s Exorcist reimagining, like his<br />
Halloween reboot, brushes aside material that<br />
made the original film famous.<br />
My favorite part of the original is Father<br />
Damien and possessed Reagan engaging in<br />
conversation. Tension and intrigue glue your<br />
eyes to the screen as the demon does not<br />
kill the priest but teases him. The audience<br />
believed that the demon who was possessing<br />
Reagan had power without it fully being seen.<br />
Spoiler Alert: The sequel does the opposite.<br />
The demon inside the two girls, Katherine<br />
and Angela, is able to control lights and use<br />
extreme physical force. Yes, the demon that<br />
possessed Reagan in the original was violent,<br />
but it was because the demon had a mission.<br />
The Movie Column<br />
By guest columnist Anthony Caristo<br />
Father Karras was the target because he questioned<br />
his faith. What better prize for a demon<br />
than a man of God who can be teased! It is<br />
only until the true Exorcist, Father Merrin,<br />
arrives that Father Karras regains his faith.<br />
As for the reboot, the mission for the demon<br />
to possess the two girls is never mentioned.<br />
My biggest problem with this reboot is<br />
that there is no Exorcist present! The film<br />
was trying to instill the idea that anyone can<br />
be an Exorcist because if you believe, you can<br />
combat the forces of evil. Unsurprisingly, this<br />
interesting idea falls flat due to poor writing<br />
and plot structure. As the exorcism continues<br />
it becomes abundantly clear that the absence<br />
of an actual Exorcist weakened the film.<br />
So are there any positives? First the acting<br />
was strong, which was led by Lidya Jewitt and<br />
Olivia O’Neill who played the two possessed<br />
children. There is also the script which was a<br />
gift and a curse. The ending was largely weak<br />
but there were moments that made me think<br />
I was watching a good movie. Specifically<br />
the scene where Lidya Jewitts’ character is<br />
talking to her father. There was chemistry<br />
between the two, and it was genuine to watch<br />
their relationship grow. Of course, this whole<br />
review would be for naught if I did not mention<br />
that amazing theme song!<br />
In the end, Exorcist fans were disappointed<br />
and must look to the past! Check out<br />
the massively underrated film, The Exorcism of<br />
Emily Rose, which did everything right that this<br />
film did wrong.<br />

The Activity Column<br />
Catherine Dugan’s guide to getting out there... this week, find some goodies at a craft show!<br />
There’s a shopping meme going around<br />
social media that asserts, “Target will<br />
tell you what you need from Target.”<br />
Craft lovers agree — they don’t go to the<br />
craft fair for something specific. Instead,<br />
they go to discover something. Those who shop<br />
the “collectibles” part of a craft and collectibles<br />
fair are different. Collectors usually look for very<br />
specific items.<br />
Craft lovers are there to appreciate the<br />
handmade items. They know that prices should<br />
reflect the raw materials, the time spent creating<br />
the item, and the years spent learning the craft,<br />
whether it’s knitting or painting or leather work.<br />
These shoppers want to treat themselves, or<br />
their gift recipients. Craft lovers take their time<br />
at the fair, looking at every stall and stopping to<br />
speak to the artists. They linger.<br />
Collectors often speed through a fair. If they<br />
collect, say, vintage porcelain boxes, they know<br />
they are looking for a rectangular one with a lid,<br />
and they don’t want to lose out to another collector.<br />
They may chat with vendors to ask about<br />
future availability, or fantastic finds, but they<br />
tend not to linger.<br />
Gift shopping changes these calculations,<br />
of course. Both types of shoppers should come<br />
armed with a list, not just of who they want to<br />
buy for, but something about them — instead of<br />
just “Heather,” your list might remind you that<br />
she is 24, training for a 10K, and living in a a tiny<br />
student apartment. These notes might stop you<br />
from adding to the angel collection she had as<br />
a child or buying a large piece of holiday decor,<br />
and instead treat her to one of those hair accessories<br />
that doubles as a wallet, or a luxurious<br />
lotion for her sore feet. A fellow Cape May lover<br />
might appreciate a piece of seaside-themed art.<br />
Sustainable gifts like reusable beeswax food<br />
wrappers are a treat for the friend who lives<br />
on leftovers. Consumable items, like unusual<br />
dips and sauces, are great for both older people<br />
looking to declutter and young people with<br />
limited space. Almost anyone can appreciate a<br />
bottle of antibacterial gel with a pleasant scent<br />
to keep in the car. Cape May’s Convention Hall<br />
has several shows coming up. On November 4,<br />
there’s the “Fall Craft & Collectibles Show” from<br />
10am to 4pm. On November 24 and 25, there’s a<br />
“Holiday Craft & Collectibles Show,” and “Crafts<br />
at Christmas” arrives on December 2. Prepare<br />
to park a few blocks away — the vendors often<br />
occupy the spaces closest to Convention Hall.<br />
Bring cash as well as credit cards in case the<br />
credit card machines are wonky. Bring your<br />
reusable tote bag to carry your gifts home. Enjoy<br />
your food outside of the sales area to avoid spills.<br />

The Answer Lady invites inquiries from<br />
gentle readers on all manner of relationship<br />
quandaries, matters of the<br />
heart and ethics. If you’d like to send<br />
a query, write to info@exitzero.us. Or,<br />
simply sit back, enjoy a cup of coffee and contemplate<br />
the wisdom herein.<br />
Dear Answer Lady<br />
We recently sent out our wedding<br />
invitations on which we ask guests not to bring<br />
children. We don’t think this is an uncommon<br />
request. The reception is at Congress Hall and<br />
we are not planning a kid-friendly night. My<br />
cousin asked if she could be the exception and<br />
bring her eight-year-old daughter because our<br />
wedding date “falls on her weekend.” I told<br />
her no, miffed that she would even ask. Then<br />
she asked if I was then providing childcare.<br />
I simply said, “Do I take it you will not be<br />
attending?” “Of course I’m coming,” she said.<br />
She is still texting me, asking about childcare.<br />
How do I end this without getting the entire<br />
family involved? She has never been one who<br />
takes no for an answer. — Flustered Bride<br />
The Answer Lady<br />
Wise answers to perplexing questions<br />
Dear Flustered<br />
You deflect. Get the family involved and<br />
make them your wingman. Your mother or<br />
father should pick up the phone and talk to her<br />
mother and sort it out. Another alternative for<br />
your unimaginative cousin would be to call<br />
on friend or the family of one of her friends.<br />
She could spend the night, which would be a<br />
lot more fun than hanging out with a bunch<br />
of adults. Finally, she could switch weekends<br />
with her ex. These are all suggestions which<br />
should come from someone else. You have<br />
more important things to worry about.<br />
Dear Answer Lady<br />
My best friend is recently divorced. She<br />
married her high school sweetheart, so she is<br />
not very sophisticated when it comes to men.<br />
A very handsome man has been wooing her<br />
who doesn’t have a great reputation. He preys<br />
on divorcees. I also know he has heard that she<br />
has money. What do I do? How do I warn her<br />
without alienating her? — Worried Friend<br />
Dear Worried<br />
You take her out to dinner. The Filling<br />
Station would be a good place. Tell her what<br />
you know. Tell her you love her and don’t want<br />
to see anyone take advantage of her, but you<br />
do not castigate him. She is vulnerable. The<br />
only thing you can do is to tell her not to give<br />
him any money without consulting a financial<br />
adviser and make sure he likes her more than<br />
her money. She will, of course, deny all this<br />
and ignore your concerns. Then you must shut<br />
up and resolve to stand by her no matter what.<br />

Enrich Your Life... Adopt An Animal<br />
Three beautiful dogs from the Cape May County Animal Shelter and Adoption Center... call 609-465-8923<br />
LADY AVERY is a sweet social girl whose family<br />
could no longer care for her. This English<br />
Pointer has great leash skills and enjoys car<br />
rides. She is a ten-year-old girl but has plenty<br />
of energy. Lady Avery is good with children<br />
and would do well with other dogs and cats as<br />
long as she has a slow introduction. This girl<br />
would make a wonderful family pet.<br />
THOR is a young dog that can be nervous in<br />
new situations. He loves playing fetch and<br />
can continue to go for hours with his endless<br />
energy. Thor’s leash skills are improving, and<br />
he continues to learn new behavior cues daily.<br />
He would be best in a quiet home with older<br />
children and would need a slow introduction<br />
to cats and other dogs.<br />
ZEKE is a one-and-a-half-year-old boy who<br />
came to the shelter when his owner could no<br />
longer care for him. He is a happy pup who<br />
loves attention. Zeke is learning proper leash<br />
manners and enjoys his brisk walks. He also<br />
loves car rides and is crate trained. Zeke would<br />
make a wonderful companion for a family<br />
with older children.<br />

Enrich Your Life... Adopt An Animal<br />
Four beautiful cats from the Cape May County Animal Shelter and Adoption Center... call 609-465-8923<br />
NIVIA is one of seven kittens that was rescued<br />
with her mother. Being an indoor cat is all<br />
she’s ever known, and she would love to find a<br />
loving family to take her in. Nivia is up to date<br />
on all vaccinations and spayed. She would do<br />
well in a home with other cats as well as children.<br />
If interested in taking home this cute kitten,<br />
contact the shelter.<br />
DAWN AND RAINBOW are two of the happiest<br />
little kittens you’ll ever meet. They love to<br />
play and are very social. Dawn and Rainbow<br />
are attached at the hip — they play together,<br />
eat together and use the litter box together. It<br />
would be best if these two girls were adopted<br />
together. They’d both do well in a home with<br />
other cats, dogs and children.<br />
SQUEAKS CQ is a beautiful three-year-old<br />
girl. She came to the shelter when her owners<br />
were moving and couldn’t bring her along.<br />
Squeaks is a very calm and quiet girl and was<br />
the only pet to her previous owners. It would<br />
be best if she stayed as such with no other cats<br />
or dogs. An adult only household would also<br />
suit Squeaks well.<br />
