Just kidding about closing the border - P'burg is one of the main life bloods of the island. Without the cruise ships the locals would have a very - as in negative - lifestyle. I believe the development of the boardwalk is a great addition to the town, and while I hate the annual shopping trip, it is better then a wife who gets bored laying on the beach day after day. I consider it a necessary evil to maintain a happy marriage.
