One never knows who he or she might meet while sojourning down Greenpoint’s main drag nowadays…
From The New York Shitty Inbox: Missing On Green Street
Anyone who has the pleasure of knowing our local veterinarian, Brad Seaman, be it as a friend or a client can attest that he is one sweet, caring fellow. Thus when he contacted me that one his own furkids— actually one of his girlfriend— has gone MIA it was no question that I would gladly post an item soliciting her safe return. Here it is:
- His girlfriend, Jen, a fellow vet (!) just moved in with him at the Viridian (Yeah, I know— but that’s another matter!).
- He has just realized that her furkid, Gretta, who bears a strong resemblance to the above kitty save she is a bit older, is missing.
- To this end he would like us to help him secure her safe return.
Anyone who has seen a cat fitting this description on or near Green Street please give him a call at (718)406-2022 ASAP. As you can see, a reward is being offered. Thanks— and spread the word!
P.S.: I will be amending this post with a photo of Greta when he is able to send me one.
UPDATE, 7:25 p.m.: Gretta has been found. Hooray!

It is with a heavy heart I relay that one of Manhattan Avenue’s most beloved citizens is no longer with us. As a woman I saw crying upon reading the above heartfelt eulogy clearly attests: she is missed by many.
H/T: to Greenpointers for breaking this distressing news.

Manhattan Avenue at Eagle Street
I do not know where to even start here, so I’ll leave it at this; lest the “copy” and “graphics” were not a sufficient indication, the sheer quantity of these flyers I saw while walking around the neighborhood today make it quite clear “Tony” is pissed.

This would hardly be the first time I have heard of roosters calling our fair burgh home. What’s more, shortly after spotting this (regrettably incomplete) missive I actually heard the rooster in question. Ah, Greenpoint…

So today I spent (and continue to spend) cleaning Chez Shitty. We party hard here, I can assure you. In any case earlier this evening I popped out to get a few things. Let’s just say I, clad in flip flops, dirty jeans and a hoodie, felt like a real schlump when I beheld this lady’s get-up.
I inquired as to her head gear. This she made herself. It was so lovely, especially when paired with the scarf (which I have seen for sale at the Polonia Bookstore), I asked her if I could take a photo. As you can see, she gladly obliged. Methinks I’ll have to dust off some fake flowers, my hot glue gun and make my own. In the meantime: Bravo!

Sometimes a little whimsy (and some duct tape) is all one needs to transform a mundane item into a new “friend”! (Taken April 21, 2013.)
