From The New York Shitty Inbox: Holy Sh*t!
Luke writes (in an email entitled “Crikey!”):
this morning my girlfriend and i were in champion coffee’s backyard
and this guy showed up… wtf?
Household pet or is Garden Spot of the Universe at long last reverting back to its original primordial state? First is was a raccoon*, then it was a chicken on Craigslist and and now reptiles have entered the fray. Too bad Marlin Perkins is no longer with us— as it would appear our ‘nabe is a becoming a veritable Noah’s Ark of critterdom.

thanks for (offering) the raccoon to us. go greenpoint wildlife!
Greenpoint Photos Du Jour: Gearing Up For “The Bounty”
Filed under: Greenpoint Magic
Tomorrow they will commence filming The Bounty, an “action/comedy” featuring Jennifer Aniston and Gerard Butler right here in Greenpoint. Provided the weather holds. When I told one of the men charged with overseeing the last minute preparations that the weather is going to be iffy, he said:
We’ll work with it.
You gotta love an attitude like that. Here’s a slide show of how things were shaping up when I walked by today. Enjoy!
To close on a more local note Champion Coffee, arguably one of the best purveyors of java in north Greenpoint, will be closed until June 19th.
Coffee lovers needing a Monday (Tuesday and Wednesday) morning commute caffeine fix should plan accordingly. My recommendation: Cafecito Bogota. Not only are the co-proprietors of this business incredibly nice chaps, but the cholados are amazing!

TONIGHT: Art At Champion Coffee
Filed under: Area 51
Tonight Champion Coffee will be having an art opening from 7:00 – 10:00 p.m. I have no word as to what the nature of the work will be but given how much I enjoyed their last show this will definitely be on my “to do” list! If you happen to be in the area why not give it a look-see?
