accident

Per witnesses the automobile on the left failed to stop at the stop sign on Green Street. Having lived on Green Street for no less than ten years I can attest that I have seen plenty of “accidents” such as this. We need either a stop light or some enforcement on this intersection. Seriously.

Greenpoint Photos Du Jour: Impromptu Buffet At The C-Town

This evening the Mister and I, feeling peckish, made a trip to the grocery store. It would appear we were not the only ones.

Who were hungry, that is. Nothing says “givin’ it to the man” 11222 style quite like eating his grapes…

Urban Artifact: Special April Fool’s Day Edition, Part II

(Or: If you can’t beat ’em, join ’em!)

As today’s selections undoubtedly attest, there’s plenty of April tomfoolery and springtime mirth in the Garden Spot today. Without argument the highlight of my sojourn was bumping into one the Garden Spot’s more notable citizens/merry hooligans: Josef.

This, his latest opus, can be found in front of the Cafe Riviera on Manhattan Avenue.

Josef felt the piece of duct tape in the middle needed to be removed, so remove it he did. That’s when I decided to tender my two cents/expertise:

This doesn’t quite work. Something needs to go in this space.

He sprung into action.
