PART OF WHAT we all love about the Shore is that year after year, it's always the same. The bike rental shack hasn't budged since you were a kid. The custard stand and fudge store are still right where you left them last August. Skee-Ball abides.

What's happening at Shore this summer
So you're heading to A.C. to hit it big? Maybe you will, maybe you won't. But either way, ya gotta eat.
ATLANTIC CITY has had a long history of treating laws pertaining to alcohol sales and consumption with indifference, if not outright scorn. But there has been one location that historically has been as dry as rural Utah: the beach.
It doesn't appear as if the word "blockbuster" will be needed to describe the summer 2009 entertainment schedule in Atlantic City.
Bally's Atlantic City, 1900 Pacific Ave., 609-340-2000, ballysac.com. Elvis "El Camaron" Martinez," 11 p.m. tomorrow, $75, $60 and $35. Atlantic City Hilton, Boardwalk at Boston Avenue, 609-347-7111, hiltonac.com. James van Praagh ("The Ghost Whisperer"), 9 tonight, 8 p.m. tomorrow, $50.
Not every Shoregoer hits Atlantic City, but that doesn't mean those who don't can't share in the headliner-entertainment fun. The Richard Stockton College of New Jersey's annual "Stockton Goes to the Beach Summer Concert Series" is again set for Ocean City's Music Pier (9th and Boardwalk) Mondays in July and August.
Here's a sampling of Jersey Shore events this summer. Some are annual traditions; others are making their debut. Either way, there's something for every age or interest, and many activities are free.
MUCH GETS MADE of physical tells, especially when Hollywood does poker. If you know how to prompt and interpret an involuntary reaction, you can save yourself a lot of chips, as colorful, aggressive pro David "Devilfish" Ulliott showed.
