I have been woefully remiss in sharing the latest round of access cover plunder plaguing our fair burgh. This egregious oversight I hope to correct soon (probably tomorrow). In the meantime, I leave you with this one I found today across the street from Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church. Drive carefully!

Spotted On Montrose Avenue: Diversification

As a resident of north Brooklyn, the home of such ground-breaking ventures in capitalism as an auto shop and a laundromat sporting pinball parlors and a table tennis/art gallery which serves beer, I found this latest rather inventive business model par for the course. Need to buy your Aunt Tillie some knick-knacks and get your tires rotated this holiday season, gentle readers? Look no further: ZP is your place! Tell ’em Miss Heather sent you…

From The New York Shitty Inbox: Movin’ On Up!

Some of you might recall the lass at left. Her name is Kaileigh (after the absolutely lovely young woman who found her). I made the acquaintance of her and her namesake behind the Cooper Park Houses last month. Well, Jay Lombard (into whose care this rather vocal lass was tendered by yours truly) had some very good news to share with me this afternoon! He writes:

…did i tell you that I found a great home for Kaileigh?! She now lives in Portland, Maine with a lovely couple. She went from the housing projects in Brooklyn to a Victorian home with a large fireplace and floor to ceiling windows that let the sunlight pour in to her new living quarters. Lucky little kitty!

I initially demanded that Jay tender photographic evidence that this Brooklyn babe is being well attended to. However, on second thought, methinks a “house visit” might be in order: curling up next to a fireplace sounds pretty damned good right now. I cannot tell a lie. I’m jealous!

Missing In Williamsburg: Rizzo

I care not to go into another round of “please do not leave your pet unattended” but I’m going to anyway:

Please do not leave your canine companions unattended.

The sad reality is while 99% of our fellow north Brooklynites are wonderful, caring people, we need to be mindful of the 1%. While it is not stated how Rizzo went MIA, the fact is some rather unneighborly individuals have made a cottage industry of taking dogs in the hope/with expectation of getting reward money. The previous having been written, if anyone has seen Rizzo or knows of her whereabouts please call the phone number listed on this flyer. (NOTE: the last digit is a “three”.) Thanks!

I stumbled upon the above flyer on Norman Avenue this morning while taking a walk. If anyone reading this tome has seen Bugs or knows of his whereabouts please contact his “people” at the above-listed telephone number. Thanks!
