Yes folks $2,200 a month for a two bedroom railroad apartment in Greenpoint. What the hell is this dude on? It must be “good shit” to quote Cheech and Chong.

As for the rest of us, Major T. J. King Kong from Dr. Strangelove put such absurdity in perspective all too well when he said:

…I’ve been to one world fair, a picnic, and a rodeo, and that’s the stupidest thing I ever heard come over a set of earphones the Internets.

Turn off the odious music on this advertisement, turn on “Sunshine of Your Love”* by Eric Clapton tune into reality and drop out.

*”White Room” also works well.

East Williamsburg Photos du Jour: The Green House

What I love about knocking around Cooper Park is all the odd the side streets. There’s always a nifty discovery around every corner.

Like this, the green house of East Williamsburg, at the intersection of Judge and Powers Street.

Here’s a rear view. If you have the means and/or sick leave today check this house out for yourself. It’s pretty amazing.
