Happy Presidents Day From New York Shitty!
In this spirit of this holiday follows is a selection photographs with a decidedly presidential theme. Enjoy!
I will be of little surprise to some that North 5th Street has started printing its own currency.
Why not swing by this deli on Manhattan Avenue and get yourself a McCain sandwich?
Bill Clinton + magnetic erotic poetry kit = hilarity.

Greenpoint Photos Du Jour: Valentines Day Special
Filed under: Greenpoint Magic
In keeping with the spirit of Valetine’s Day here are a few shots taken from none other than the Garden Spot of the Universe. Enjoy!
This lovely assortment of roses come from the A.J. Farm Market at 1014 Manhattan Avenue.
As many of you know this is also Presidents Day weekend. So why not do what the owners of T & N Wine and Liquor did and combine motifs?
Nothing washes down a box of chocolate (or nine) like a tall frosty one!
Valentine’s Day meets Chinese New Year on Herbert Street.
Now this is what I call a teddy bear!
Someone is loved on Morgan Avenue.
Yeah, I know this isn’t from Greenpoint per se. But I like it and what’s more it makes a great finisher for this post. So there!

Southside Photo Du Jour: A Novel Approach
Filed under: Williamsburg
When I looked up and saw this delightful apartment entrance on Driggs Avenue I swooned. I mean, who wouldn’t want to live in a place called “Novelty Court”?* In any case they don’t build ’em like this anymore.
Miss Heather
*Well, probably not Frank Serpico for starters (see comments).
Williamspoint Photos Du Jour: Wheels
Presented for your Friday afternoon entertainment: a selection of wheels from the Garden Spot and beyond. Enjoy!
This Fred T. Sanford special hails from Calyer Street.
If this gent’s defensive driving skills are anything like his ability to parallel park it would certainly explain all the “boo boos” gracing his ride.
I pity the fool who is paying $1,500+ a month for this studio apartment!
North 12th Street goes south of the border.
Some food for thought from Manhattan Avenue.
Everthing is coming up roses on Noble Street.
Thames Street prefers hogs.
Greenpoint gangstas prefer Volkswagens. Lest you are wondering a solitary rose was gracing its bud vase— even tough guys like flowers!

A Bedford Avenue recession special.
Laid off? No worries, Just For Fun on Manhattan Avenue has your severance package!*
Someone on McKibben Street hearts J.R.
A very Greenpoint (Avenue) Valentine.
And last— but not least— ladies, beware of the Seigel Street hymen hunter!
Miss Heather
*They also have an assortment of anatomically correct (in all the right or wrong places— one’s sense of taboo and/or religious upbringing notwithstanding) inflatable lady dolls behind the counter for all you single guys out there. Hey, at least you won’t need Plan B the morning after!
Tell ’em Miss Heather sent you.

THIS WEEK: Screw The Heart…
Filed under: Williamsburg
Ella needs a liver! This item comes courtesy of Matt Levy from the City Reliquary. He writes:
Because not only is Ella beautiful, but she has a sense of humor regarding her inadequate bodily organs…
On Friday February 13th, from 7 – 11pm the City Reliquary will be hosting a special benefit to assist a friend and reliquarian, Ella Watson, who is scheduled to receive a liver replacement. So, on the eve of this Valentine’s Day remember: Screw the Heart; Ella Needs a Liver!
Get good mojo on Friday the 13th by coming out to help raise some cash for Ella Watson, badass and beloved artist, (and her soon-to-be adopted liver). Even if you don’t know Ella, the night promises to be a blast: there will be live music, dark humor, light hearts, hot toddies, hotter chili, treats from the Gramercy Tavern, and cheap Brooklyn Lager on sale (for the good livered amongst us).
There will be art for sale (for $50.00 or less!) and “a thematic DJ set by Jesse Arnold” is also promised. The suggest donation for this event is $10.00.
Fundraiser For Ella
