From The New York Shitty Inbox: Much Ado About This Weekend
Filed under: 11211, 11222, Greenpoint, Greenpoint Brooklyn, Greenpoint Magic, Williamsburg, Williamsburg Brooklyn
Or would that be much to DO this weekend? If what I found in my inbox today is any indication there is a log going on this weekend. Mark writes:
Hey Miss Heather did you see this? Papacito’s is celebrating it’s pseudo-one year birthday and recently acquired liquor license. They’re inviting people to come celebrate with free food and tequila. Pretty cool!
Most cool indeed! Among the goodies promised are free tequila shots from 11:00 – 1:00 a.m. and live mariachi music. Check it out!

If mariachi is not your cup of tea, a good friend of mine (and fabulous D.J.), The Professor, will be spinning an evening of “Motor City rock, soul, punk and psycho-funk” at Greenpoint’s very own Boulevard Tavern. Having known the Professor for some time I can attest to his outstanding taste in music. Go. You will not be disappointed!

TOMORROW: Santa Claus At PS9!
This item comes courtesy of my friends at the McCarren Dog Run. Tomorrow, December 5, from 12:00 – 6:00 p.m. you can have your furkids photographed with Santa Claus — or would that be Claws? In any case, two 4 x6 inch prints will set you back a mere $20.00. Not a bad deal at all!

I don’t know about you, but I for one hope Edie the hamster will swing by and tell Santa what she wants for Christmas. She’s been a very good girl this year!

Overheard In Williamsburg: Glass Houses
Ordinarily I would hand something like this off to my friends at Overheard In New York but this one is too damned good NOT to post here. Sorry folks!
I was walking down Roebling Street at 3:00 p.m. this afternoon when a group of 15-something young men rounded the corner and proceeded to walk in front of me. I was trying not to pay attention to what they were talking about but after I overheard the following corker I was hooked:
…(she) said don’t throw rocks if you live in a glass house. I don’t live in a glass house; I live in the projects. That’s what I told the teacher!
God I love teenagers.
