This item (which hails from the intersection of Metropolitan Avenue and Berry Street) comes courtesy of a lady named Donna. What really makes this image if you ask me are the remains of a flier from Diana Reyna’s latest (and I will add successful) run for the 34th City Council seat. This somehow pulls it all together. Great find, Donna!

New York Shitty Day Ender: Urban Fur
The above gent with an overbite may not look familiar to you, but I am pretty certain you have heard about him. He is none other than the pooch who discovered Sidney Lumet’s Lifetime Achievement Award in a bit of Greenpoint shrubbery: Fred T. Sanford!

Like it or hate it, you have to give the artist responsible for this points for chutzpah. It hails from Metropolitan Avenue. Literally. Follows are a few other works I have found during my travels in north Brooklyn by this same person. Enjoy!

LAST GASP: A Moment of Williamsburg Zen
While most of you were probably off work and having fun today I was busy. VERY BUSY. I will probably continue to be busy well into the night. I need relief. Preferably comic relief. Thanks to Meredith I got it.
She writes:
It is a fishing stringer (heavy duty) , a red baron plastic airplane, a set of bubba teeth, a wise man, and a stuffed toy hung on a preexisting painting. It’s pretty great.
Whenever someone evokes “Bubba teeth” I think about the time my buddy Rachael went to the Mark Bar sporting a set. As she was talking to a fellow bar patron they fell out of her mouth and into her drink. Without a second thought she retrieved them and stuck them back into her mouth. Much to the other woman’s dismay.
Thanks Meredith. I needed this!

New York Shitty Day Ender: Pale Rider
When I hear the words “Pale Rider” I think of Clint Eastwood. I do not think of Volvos. Much less Volvos parked on Bedford Avenue. I suppose that’s Williamsburg for you.

In observance of (what is left of) Martin Luther King Day I present to you this distressed but still quite lovely work of street art. The artist is Dain and it can be found on Driggs Avenue.

A cleric contemplates the G in despair. I shot this in Long Island City, Queens. Jackson Avenue to be precise. I walked there. Care to guess how I got home?
