LAST GASP: Got Rats?

If so, someone would very much like to talk to you. “Associate Producer” writes:

I’m not sure whether or not this would be the kind of thing (it most assuredly is— Ed. Note) that would be of interest to you or your readers, but it’s certainly a city-wide issue, so I wonder if you can help.

I’m part of a team producing a new documentary series on the city’s by-now colossal rat population – outnumbering humans in NY 12-to-1 by some estimates.  We’re going to be following a team of exterminators as they set about ridding a range of homes and businesses throughout the 5 boroughs of rat infestations…

We’re keen to hear from anyone who is suffering from this menace.

Thanks!

Here’s the dealio: if you want to share your Rattus norvegicus experiences (or simply want to learn more about this project) you should shoot an email to:  sciencetvshow (at) gmail (dot) com

Not only is your confidentiality ensured, but they’ll set you up with an accredited local pest control company that will tackle your rat problem FOR FREE. Yes, I just wrote F-R-E-E!

Get cracking Greenburgers, Bushwickers and Long Island Cityslickers!

New York Shitty Day Ender: A Missed Missed Connection

March 22, 2010 ·
Filed under: 11211, Culture War, Williamsburg, Williamsburg Brooklyn 

When I saw this on Flickr I chuckled. When I learned from the person responsible for raising awareness about this appalling breach of etiquette that Craigslist did not see fit to publish it I was outraged. These youths need to be taught a lesson: either give props to the Dark One with gusto or don’t do it at all. The fact this came to pass on Bedford Avenue (the devil’s playground if ever there was one) makes the offense even more egregious.

F*cking amateurs.

Williamsburg Gentrification Watch: Old Glory

One would think Thor Realty Holdings (having bought an entire city block in “prime Williamsburg”) would be able to afford a better means of flying old Glory. I suppose this is not the case.

Quicklink: Greenpointers & Williamsburgers For Google Fiber Optic

This item comes courtesy of the Mister. He requested that I post it. This is something I will gladly do given how piss poor the information super highway is hereabouts. Quite frankly I find it appalling given the number of people (myself included) who rely on the Internet for their livelihood. For more information about our community’s bid to have Google give us the gift of broadband (and thus usher north Brooklyn into something resembling the 21st Century) click here. ASAP. The deadline is March 26!

P.S.: Some of you might be interested to know our Assemblyman, Joe Lentol, is assisting with the application process. What he needs is a show of support from the community. Perhaps you?
