Christie has ordered the flags lowered to half-mast for the passing of many people, including former Congressmen, police officers, and military personnel.
But then we weren't at war during Whitman's tenure.
You can find a record here. It's not just Whitney, Clarence, and Jimmy.
Only in NJ would they officially recognize a mafia thug as a government official. You have to commend Fat Boy on his honesty.
Tony Soprano and Paulie Walnuts go to war-Two of TV’s biggest stars visit troops

Did they fly their flags at half staff for Orson Welles, who made Grovers Mill, NJ the talk of the Nation in 1938?... No. Jersey wasn’t a shit hole then.
The honor and respect earned that justifies flying the flag at half-staff has gone the way of the Nobel Peace Prize.
The governor has the power to direct the flags to be at half-staff. In using his power, the Governor diminished all previous honorees just as Obamas Peace Prize demised all previous recipients.
The question now is how many days will this individual and his accomplishments be honored?
For the record, I missed out on The Sopranos not because I had a problem with the subject matter. Heck, I regard Goodfellas as one of the greatest films ever made!
Nope, I missed out on The Sopranos because, quite simply, I didn't have HBO. I'd like to try and catch it on DVD if I can ever find the time.
Why not? We lower it for politicians. Whitney Houston made the world a far better place than Ted Kennedy ever did and at least she didn't kill anyone.
I read that in Tony Soprano’s voice,lol. His AND Pauly Walnuts’ voice. (I think that was his name)
I would laugh whenever they’d say “Bada Bing” with those Jersey accents.
I love your tagline.
