From The New York Shitty Inbox: A Message From Reverend Merz
As many people reading this are undoubtedly aware the respite bed program was (somewhat) recently relocated to the Church of the Ascension. What lead to this happening, while highly unpleasant, indicated a lot of folks hereabouts do not know who is caring for our local homeless and how this being implemented. This is something Reverend Merz wishes to change. To this end he along with our elected officials, Common Ground and the Greenpoint Homeless Task Force will be conducting an informal meeting. He writes:
The Greenpoint Homeless Task Force, Common Ground and the Church of the Ascension invites you to an informational meeting about our work among the local homeless as we assist them in finding relief and recovery in their lives. Local elected and community leaders, will also be present. The meeting will take place Thursday February 21st at 7pm at 122 Java Street (Ascension Parish Hall). This time will offer an opportunity for you to learn more about the services we offer, to ask questions and make suggestions. In addition there will be opportunities to for you to plug in to various aspects of this important community work, we can use your good energy! We look forward to your presence.
So there have you. Those of you who want to learn more about the respite shelter— and perhaps lend a hand to your neighbors in need— this is your chance. Be there!

Consumer Product Du Jour: Liquor Lube
Anyone who has seen the monthly litany of liquor license applications for Community Board 1 (or simply walked the streets of north Brooklyn, for that matter) can attest that we loves us some spirits. Now thanks to an establishment located at the 687 Broadway Mall, we can combine two vices at once. In any case, it brings a whole new meaning to the word “cocktail”.* Salud!
*Props go out to a friend of my travelling companion du jour, Larry, for this bon mot!
