Myth 1: I will get up early after a long night of outdoor dancing, crisp white wines and a plate of falafel in Brooklyn.
Myth 2: The Jersey Shore is terrible.
Myth 3: You cannot get a delicious fish taco on the East Coast.
Myth 4: Watching your friend consume a 3 foot, 5 lbs. burrito is not an adequate substitute to watching fireworks on the Fourth of July.
Myth 5: You cannot drive to Atlantic City from Belmar, NJ without plans or your debit card at 1 a.m.
Myth 6: Playing black jack for 5 hours gets old.
Myth 7: Sunrise in Atlantic City isn't worth it.
Myth 8: Two people cannot drive from Atlantic City to Harvey's Lake (mere coincidence) on no sleep and a tall Gazebo blend coupled with a blueberry scone.
Myth 9: John is an awful wakesurf* teacher. (Well that's not a myth, that's just false.)
Myth 10: You never feel like you are in a Jack Johnson surf doc when in Pennsylvania.
Myth 11: The "Homecut Donut" from Curry Donut and/or Currys Donut is delicious and always fresh.
Myth 12: Rubber-necking a flaming car won't cause 20 miles of traffic.
Myth 13: A soft pretzel with cream cheese, sour cream, monterey jack, imitation crab and cocktail sauce should stay on a menu.

Rule 1: Always bring your passport.
Rule 2: Always keep excellent company.
Rule 3: Always bring your pants.

I only did one of those three things this July 4th.

*It's hard to find a sweet wakesurf video at this moment in history, but this one has some decent info.
