Williamsburg Video Du Jour: Springtime On Bedford Avenue
Yup.

P.S.: I would like to take a moment to thank the very kind B62 bus driver who honked at this chap so my mother could get a picture of him. It was greatly appreciated.
Reader Contribution Du Jour: The McCarren Park Tree Twat, Revisited

This find hails from (where else?) Bedford Avenue and North 12 Street and comes courtesy of Alex who writes:
See the attached photo for something I spotted in McCarren park this past Saturday. Someone saw fit to adorn the park’s vaginal tree with a piercing… classy.
Where’s Larry Flynt when you need him?

UPDATE, August 30, 2010: It has come to my attention that this piece has been linked to by AOL. This is a New York Shitty first! In this tome (which you can read here) the author— for reasons only known to him— saw fit to get a quote from Gersh Kuntzman of the Brooklyn Paper. Why, I do not know. Mr. Kuntzman is a lot of things, but an expert on north Brooklyn is not one of them. What’s more he has a nasty habit of lifting content from blogs— mine among them. In some circles this is considered plagiarism. Suffice it to say I am not a fan of Mr. Kuntzman.
With the previous disclosure I present to you what he had to say about the above item (and vagina trees in general):
I think I speak for all Brooklynites who love vaginas — and I’m speaking for a lot of people, so I understand the gravitas — when I say that the only place to truly enjoy a vulva of any kind is in McCarren Park.
Given that this gent has seen fit to videotape himself molesting a multimillion dollar apartment and that I was in McCarren Park just yesterday this, well, makes me more than a little nervous. Methinks I’ll be patronizing Gantry State Park in Queens moving forward. I would advise you, dear readers, to follow suit: the sticky stuff on our foliage might not be sap!
Williamsburg Photos Du Jour: Life Goes On
Luis Rivera might be gone, but life has gone on at Bedford Avenue and North 1st Street. Not only is north Brooklyn’s favorite gorilla looking pretty dapper nowadays but it would appear he is looking for a little online companionship! In all seriousness, I am really happy to see this Bedford Avenue institution continue.
