Happy Thanksgiving to all of our customers,<br />
employees & friends. We are grateful for you!<br />
Bring in nonperishable food and receive a<br />
free coffee - must show this ad to cashier.<br />
Every week, the Exit Zero crew goes for lunch (or dinner or, maybe<br />
even on occasion, breakfast) at one of Cape May’s excellent dining<br />
establishments. Well we’re shifting into the holiday shopping<br />
season and it’s only fitting that this column follows suit.<br />
We’ll give you the skinny on the clothes we try on, the candles<br />
we smell, the snacks we sample, who we bumped into and, you know,<br />
the general lay of the land PLUS where to find the best gifts this season.<br />
The place: The Exit Zero retail store inside the Filling Station on<br />
Sunset Boulevard. It’s been decked out for the holidays from top to<br />
bottom with twinkling lights, ornaments and other Christmas decor.<br />
There’s also a donation box for the Scott Gregg Jr. annual toy drive just<br />
inside the door to drop off some goodies for those in need this season.<br />
The products: Exit Zero meets just about all your Christmas shopping<br />
needs. Looking for some artwork to spruce up your office? There’s<br />
plenty of photography prints you can pick up of Cape May best spots<br />
including the Lighthouse and Cape May Point. New coffee table book?<br />
You can’t go wrong with a copy of The First Resort. Don’t forget about<br />
the kids — there’s plenty of plush toys, books, T-shirts and sweatshirts<br />
they’ll love. Check out the house items and accessories that make the<br />
best stocking stuffers. From hot sauce and wine glasses to magnets and<br />
charms, there’s something for everyone.<br />
The holiday deals: There’s so many Black Friday deals headed our<br />
way from plenty of stores in town, including Flying Fish Studio’s 33%<br />
off everything online and in-store or Cape May Peanut Butter’s online<br />
gift set sale, so you’ll want to write all this down. On Friday, November<br />
24 from 9am-12pm, if you purchase a $100 Exit Zero gift card, receive<br />
a second $100 gift card for FREE. This promo is available in-store only.<br />
Then, on Saturday, November 25, GET LIT on Small Biz Saturday from<br />
10am-9pm with these great offers — 50% off all books, $10 Exit Zero<br />
gift card with every $50 gift card purchase plus 20% off all apparel and<br />
gifts. The fun keeps on going during MANIC Monday, November 27.<br />
Shop online at exitzero.com and receive FREE shipping on all orders<br />
placed from 12am-11:59pm. Spend $75 or more and we’ll throw in a<br />
complimentary hat. The $10 gift card with a $50 gift card purchase deal<br />
continues online, too. ’Tis the season for shopping!<br />

Bird Droppings<br />
Dispatches from the nation’s birdwatching capital… by Seymore Thanu<br />
Everyone who goes to the hawk watch<br />
platform in November will swear<br />
“they just go for the show,” or, maybe<br />
“the parade of vultures.” They lie.<br />
Everyone goes hoping to see a Golden<br />
Eagle. The “king of birds.” The bird that rode<br />
on the staff of Rome’s conquering legions.<br />
Found across the globe, in North America,<br />
they are a western and arctic breeders. The<br />
Arctic is where our migrating birds herald<br />
from. Flying down the Atlantic coast, a few of<br />
these dark-bodied, golden-hooded birds may<br />
winter in the marshes of the Mullica River,<br />
but most head inland to the mountains of<br />
Kentucky and Tennessee where they may take<br />
prey to the size of small deer.<br />
This feat that should surprise nobody, in<br />
Alaska, Golden Eagles prey upon Dall Sheep,<br />
knocking them off ledges and feasting on the<br />
remains. In Mongolia, the birds are trained<br />
by falconers to hunt in pairs to immobilize<br />
wolves. That’s a tough line of work but one<br />
the birds have excelled at since the reign of<br />
Genghis Kahn.<br />
Here, on the Atlantic coast, the birds<br />
mostly prey upon waterfowl, but I once saw<br />
a Golden Eagle strike a Great Blue Heron and<br />
in the west I’ve watched them hunt Sandhill<br />
Cranes.<br />
For we Cape May residents, the November<br />
migration is our only opportunity to gain a<br />
glimpse of these magnificent birds.<br />
Strong, northwest winds in November are<br />
the right formula for eagles in Cape May come<br />
mid-December the migratory window closes.<br />
Most of the Golden Eagles we see here are<br />
juveniles sporting bright white wing patches<br />
and gleaming white tails that brandish broad<br />
banded tips. The golden hackles may gleam so<br />
brightly in the sun that, head on, the birds can<br />
be mistaken for adult Bald Eagles.<br />
More typically, Golden Eagles are mistaken<br />
for Turkey Vultures which like Golden<br />
Eagle fly with uplifted wings, a “dihedral.”<br />
Indeed the eagles sometimes join the local<br />
vultures in their swirling kettles where the<br />
eagles rock steady flight will distinguish it.<br />
Vultures are tipsy in flight.<br />
But with so many experienced hawk<br />
watchers on hand, you need not worry about<br />
missing a bird. The appearance of a Golden<br />
Eagle brings everyone to their feet. Most<br />
migrants do not linger, Delaware Bay is no<br />
obstacle for such a strong flier.<br />
November is the most exciting month<br />
for hawk watching in Cape May, over a dozen<br />
species are possible and there are lots of other<br />
late season migrants, too.<br />
Will the Magic of Cape May<br />
be enough to heal a fractured family<br />
in time for Christmas?<br />

Not to sound ungrateful, but did this<br />
Thanksgiving creep up on us? It<br />
pounced like Aunt Mildred’s “surprise<br />
savory pie.” Now, the entertainment<br />
industry wants our attention<br />
as we have a little time to spend watching<br />
together on big and little screens. Let’s see<br />
what’s out there!<br />
This year, there’s a parade of titles based<br />
on familiar books! There’s one reimagining<br />
pulled from a legendary classic. There are<br />
animated creations for all ages, and concerts<br />
to catch if you weren’t able to buy tickets. And<br />
yep, best believe there’s a superhero or two<br />
thrown in for good measure. Oh and there’s<br />
enough Oscar buzzworthiness to go around.<br />
Since my favorite book (published in<br />
1960) is also my favorite movie (released<br />
1962), you know I’m an adaptation fiend! Gift<br />
card to the first person who emails me the<br />
title at flixyoumissed@gmail.com! There’s a<br />
recent favorite just released on Netflix. All<br />
the Light We Cannot See is a four-part limited<br />
series. Critics say it’s cringeworthy, but I say<br />
The Movie Column<br />
By arts columnist Tom Sims<br />
bingeworthy! More on that next week.<br />
There are so many adaptations! Alice<br />
Walker’s The Color Purple is reimagined.<br />
American Fiction is based on Percival Everett’s<br />
“Erasure,” about a Black novelist frustrated<br />
with racist stereotypes. Other adaptations<br />
include The Boys in the Boat, Leave the World<br />
Behind, Poor Things and Strangers.<br />
How about biopics? Napoleon stars<br />
Joaquin Phoenix, Maestro features Bradley<br />
Cooper playing Leonard Bernstein, and Adam<br />
Driver plays the auto legend Enzo Ferrari in<br />
Ferrari. And you know there’s a writer’s strike<br />
when concert movies become big releases.<br />
Renaissance is the new documentary from<br />
megastar Beyoncé, and earlier this year was<br />
Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour. Beys and Swifties<br />
unite… at least to save theaters!<br />
Well, dip me in chocolate! Wonka looks like<br />
a winner! The movie comes out in December<br />
and tells the origin story of the legendary<br />
candy maker. People may be tired of Wilder’s<br />
Wonka or critical of Depp’s reimagining — but<br />
I say they’re all good! Bring on a third helping!<br />
Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom and The<br />
Marvels are our superhero entries. Wish is<br />
a new animated feature from Disney, and<br />
Migration is a duck road-trip movie from<br />
Illumination studios.<br />
As for Oscar Buzz— any one of these could<br />
get a nom! And it’s not even in December!<br />

The Activity Column<br />
Catherine Dugan’s guide to getting out there... this week, get in the holiday spirit at Congress Hall!<br />
Embrace your inner child this holiday<br />
season and visit the carousel at<br />
Congress Hall’s Winter Wonderland.<br />
The word carousel comes from<br />
12th century military training exercises<br />
called “carosellos,” in which knights<br />
rode in a circle, tossing a ball to one another,<br />
to improve teamwork and coordination.<br />
Children imitated the knights, and eventually,<br />
costumed “carrousels” were reenacted<br />
for entertainment. By the 18th century, fairs<br />
across Europe featured carousels with toy<br />
horses, suspended by chains, turning in a<br />
circle. A platform was introduced in the 19th<br />
century, followed by gears to allow up and<br />
down movement of the horses. Early carousels<br />
were powered by a human turning<br />
a crank, but in 1861, steam power replaced<br />
the crank, and was replaced by electricity.<br />
The National Zoo in Washington, D.C. has a<br />
solar-powered carousel.<br />
Carousels crossed the ocean in 1799,<br />
when the first American “wooden horse circus<br />
ride” appeared in Salem, Massachusetts.<br />
American designers created larger carousels,<br />
with elaborate carvings and artwork on the<br />
outside-facing sides of the horses and the<br />
addition of mirrors, lights and organ music.<br />
The largest indoor carousel in the world is<br />
located in Wisconsin and features 269 animals,<br />
182 chandeliers and 20,000 lights.<br />
Binghamton, New York earned the nickname<br />
of the “Carousel Capital of the World” 80 years<br />
ago, after a man named George F. Johnson<br />
donated six to the city with the provision<br />
that no one could ever be charged for a ride,<br />
because carousels contribute “to a happy life”<br />
and “help youngsters grow into strong and<br />
useful citizens.” 19th century doctors agreed,<br />
recommending carousels to improve circulation.<br />
Legend has it that Charles Lindbergh<br />
rode a Coney Island carousel to relax before<br />
his transatlantic flight, and Winston Churchill<br />
did to boost morale during World War II.<br />
The carousel will return to Congress<br />
Hall’s Winter Wonderland, along with the<br />
popular train ride, from November 24 through<br />
January 1, Fridays 4 to 9pm, Saturdays 11am to<br />
9pm and Sundays 11am to 8pm. There’s also<br />
an “enchanted” shopping village with “candy<br />
cane-striped tents” featuring unusual holiday<br />
items, Cape May-themed gifts and “curiosities.”<br />
Cape Resorts also offers “Breakfast<br />
with Santa” every Saturday and Sunday from<br />
November 25 through December 24, 2023<br />
— reservations are essential. Other activities<br />
include cookie decorating and “Santa’s<br />
Workshop.” Visit caperesorts.com for more.<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 />
I have three children. For the first time,<br />
I have decided not to host Christmas dinner.<br />
Instead of getting together and deciding which<br />
one of them will take over the tradition, they<br />
have each decided to have their own dinner.<br />
They all have partners/spouses and children,<br />
and I understand, but they also all expect me<br />
to either be at three places at once or choose<br />
one of them. I can’t stand it. It’s a lose-lose and<br />
I don’t know what to do except start cooking.<br />
Help. — Tug of War Mom<br />
Dear Tug<br />
The Answer Lady is sympathetic, but it is<br />
also unfair of you to think your children even<br />
want the whole family celebration thing. After<br />
all, their partners and spouses have families<br />
The Answer Lady<br />

as well and kids often like to stay in their own<br />
home. It is also unfair of them to expect you to<br />
choose one of them over the other. Assuming<br />
they live near, you could divide the day.<br />
Breakfast with one. Dinner with the second<br />
and dessert with the third. Don’t go empty<br />
handed. Coffee from Love the Cook is an<br />
excellent gift for the breakfast crowd. Bubbly<br />
from Sunset Liquors for dinner and a bottle of<br />
vodka from Nauti Spirits Distillery for dessert.<br />
Dear Answer Lady<br />
A good friend of mine has invited us to<br />
their house for a holiday party. We love them,<br />
but not their two dogs. They refuse to put<br />
them in another part of the house and they’re<br />
not well-behaved. Jump on people, often<br />
resulting in a spilt cocktail and/or jump on the<br />
sofa the minute we sit down. These are Golden<br />
Retrievers — not lap dogs. Is there nothing we<br />
can say? It would mean a rift in our friendship<br />
to not attend, but my husband and I are<br />
groaning at the close encounters of the furry<br />
kind. Any thoughts? — Dog Gone Conflicted<br />
Dear Conflicted<br />
The Answer Lady does not share your<br />
dog aversion, but that said, she has the perfect<br />
solution. Naturally, you will bring a hostess<br />
gift. Stop at Splash for a gift of sea glass.<br />
Chocolate from Louisa’s Chocolate Bar might<br />
also be an idea. Then pop in at West Side<br />
Market. Talk to Shaine at the butcher’s section<br />
and ask him for two soup bones for the dogs<br />
and let them have it. Chances are you won’t see<br />
a hair of their furry heads the entire night.<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 />
BLAZE is a handsome boy who came to the<br />
shelter when his owner died and is a bit anxious<br />
over the turn his life has taken. He does<br />
require some basic training for leash walking<br />
and certain cue but is very treat motivated. A<br />
home that understands his anxiety and is willing<br />
to work with him will allow him to grow<br />
into a fine companion.<br />
PIPPY is a lively, sweet-tempered girl who<br />
came to the shelter when her family could<br />
no longer care for her. She is a one-year-old<br />
boxer who does need a refresher on basic cues.<br />
She does enjoy learning new things and her<br />
leash skills are good. Pippy loves car rides and<br />
her previous owner said she is good with children<br />
and other dogs.<br />
BLUE is a sweet six-year-old boy who came<br />
to the shelter when his owner could no longer<br />
care for him. He is mild mannered and loves to<br />
be with humans. Blue has terrific leash manners<br />
and enjoys going for walks. According<br />
to his last owner, he’s good with children and<br />
likes car rides. Blue would make a wonderful<br />
family companion.<br />

Enrich Your Life... Adopt An Animal<br />
Five beautiful cats from the Cape May County Animal Shelter and Adoption Center... call 609-465-8923<br />
HILDA, ZELDA AND SABRINA are a trio of<br />
beautiful six-month-old sisters. They are all<br />
happy and healthy and ready to be adopted<br />
into a new home, together or separate. This<br />
group would be good in a home with other<br />
cats, dogs and children. If interested in meeting<br />
Hilda, Zelda or Sabrina, contact the shelter.<br />
SHIRLEY TEMPLE is a six-month-old<br />
girl who was found in a hoarder house and<br />
brought to the shelter by Animal Control. She<br />
tends to shiver a bit when held, but loves to be<br />
pet. It may take some patience, but Shirley will<br />
warm up to you if given some love and attention.<br />
She’d do well in a home with other cats<br />
and children.<br />
BIJOU AND FRENCHIE are a brother and sister<br />
who were trapped in a trailer park community<br />
and found flea infested and starved. This<br />
pair is very scared but not aggressive at all.<br />
They have no domesticated well, so a barn or<br />
warehouse situation would fit them perfectly.<br />
They’re great with other cats and up to date on<br />
all vaccinations and neutered/spayed.<br />
