From chubbychecker.com:
Chubby Checker is a legendary entertainment industry icon best known for popularizing The Twist, the first number one song of all time… and the only song to hit the number one position twice in two different years. It was voted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2019.
The Twist is the first song in history to be number one for over 50 years according to Billboard Magazine. In 1959 Chubby premiered “The Twist” on American Bandstand and in two minutes and forty two seconds “dancing apart to the beat” became the style of dance on the dance floor world-wide.
***** Milano Italian Grille, 5400 Southwest College Road , Unit 104 Ocala, Florida 34474,

Got a real good Italian joint for you guys to checkout, Milano Italian Grille in Ocala.
Long story short, last night Jeff Eats, Mrs. Jeff Eats and our friends Marty and Carole and Dave and Liz “discovered” Milano Italian Grille in Ocala and the joint’s food absolutely killed! To be truthful, Marty, Carole, Dave and Liz had all eaten there before because they have all lived in Ocala for the past 14 years. How these originally from Brooklyn friends ended up in Ocala is a whole other story for another day!
Inside table/booth/eat at full liquor bar seating, reasonably priced full boat Italian lunch/ dinner menus.
Like I said a few seconds ago, terrific food!
Keep a secret? Jeff Eats, Marty and Dave have been friends for over 68 years…back in the day, we would bet our penny candy money playing a 3 person version of PRS (Paper Rock Scissors)- anyway whenever the 3 of us get together- we play that game as to who pays the check- Marty!!!

***** Joseph’s Pizza, 30 Ocean Boulevard, Atlantic Beach, Florida 32233,(904) 270-1122.
Got a real good Italian joint for you guys to checkout, Joseph’s Pizza in Atlantic Beach.
Simple tale to tell, last week Jeff Eats, Mrs. Jeff Eats, Daughter Jeff Eats, Son Jeff Eats and a couple of long-time “originally from Brooklyn” friends- “discovered” Joseph’s Pizza and I gotta tell you- the joint’s food was right on the money! Inside table & tcounter seating/ outside covered patio table seating, reasonably priced appetizers/ soups/ salads/ pastas/ chicken wings/ hot & cold sandwiches/ pizzas/ entrees/ desserts/ beer & wine menu, Saturday & Sunday brunch, open Tuesday-Thursday noon-9pm/ Friday noon-10pm/ Saturday 10am-10pm/ Sunday 10am-9pm/ closed on Monday.
Let’s wrap-up Joseph’s Pizza by saying- if this joint was a whole lot closer to Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats’ Boca Raton abode, we definitely would be real steady customers! By the way, Joseph’s fried calamari alone – is worth the price of admission and Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats’ long-time “originally from Brooklyn” friends picked up the bill!

Just a taste…
This impromptu performance was recorded a few years ago at Kings Point Golf & Country Club in Delray Beach as Michael D’Amore walked out of the venue’s theater to greet the crowd in the lobby!
From bocablackbox.com:
Singer and songwriter Michael D’Amore was born in upstate N.Y. and raised and resided in New Jersey for most of his life. Coming from a musical family, it wasn’t a surprise that his passion would eventually become his livelihood.
For 35 years, Michael has been a professional entertainer hailing from The New York metropolitan area. Michael’s performances cover several genres with special attention devoted to harmony, which is one of his passions.
Michael currently performs as a one man show showcasing the very best of the 60’s, 70’s, 80’s and more. He is also a member of The Capris and proud to sing lead on the their hits “There’s A Moon Out Tonight” and “Morse Code Of Love” for music fans around the world. In his career, he has had the pleasure of being part of JT Carter’s Crests, (JT is the original Bass vocalist and founding member of The Crests) a Blue-Eyed soul show partnering him with Blues Hall of Famer Angel Rissoff and proud to have played keyboards and sing behind Jim Yester, original and founding member of The Association. Most recently Michael was featured on the PBS special Doo Wop Pop and Soul produced by TJ Lubinsky.
In recent years he has opened for and shared the stage with groups such as The Stylistics, Lou Christie, John Cafferty, The Loving Spoonful, Tony Orlando, Kenny Vance and the Planotones and so many groups he has admired over the years.
In 2012, his CD “In Harmony” was met with great success. “This is a labor of love and such a great source of pride.” In Harmony was special because Michael played and sang every part on this CD which was something he always wanted to do. In 2017 he completed his “My Favorite Melody” album in honor of his daughter which is still available today and an expected My Favorite Melody Vol II to be released soon. Most recently Michael was awarded the 2021 Top-Ten award for best New Country Song for his composition “Substituted Reality.”
Michael continues to strive for perfection in his craft and will always measure his level of success by the number of smiles in his audiences.
