New York Shitty Day Ender: Saltie?
Today as I was hustling to the G train I was pleasantly surprised to notice the former location of Cheeks Bakery did not languish as a vacant storefront for long. Goodbye Cheeks, hello Saltie! Does anyone reading this have the 411 regarding the latter? If so, please leave them in the comments section or email me at: missheather (at) thatgreenpointblog (dot) com. Thanks!
Closing on a (semi) related note it would appear that N6 is gone and “Pinkerton Wine Bar” aspires to take its place.
I wonder if the Pinkertons* encountered the same resistance as their not-so-distant neighbor, Custom, did last month? I suppose we’ll find out soon enough.

*It should be noted Pinkerton National Detective Agency and Pinkerton Wine Bar are not related. But given the previous’s checkered history I find this name— for a wine bar, no less— interesting to say the least.
MISSING: A Very Special Cat
I encountered this flier on Wythe Avenue and North 7 Street today during my ramblings in Williamsburg. No name for this lovely tuxedo lady was provided but given she sports a couple extra toes and “crooked tail” that should make her easily identifiable. If any of my Northside friends have seen this stunning lass or know of her whereabouts please contact her person, Margarita, at the above telephone number.
Thanks!

A North 9 Street PSA
Why yes, yes they do!
Looks like the natives are getting restless.

TODAY: Adoptable Cuties At Muddy Paws
Filed under: 11211, 11222, East Williamsburg, East Williamsburg Brooklyn, Greenpoint, Greenpoint Brooklyn, Greenpoint Magic, Williamsburg, Williamsburg Brooklyn
The Bountys are a quintet of winsome tabbies that were rescued with the help of crew members from the Jennifer Aniston/Gerard Butler vehicle being filmed in our ‘hood.
Three have been adopted. Two await good homes— maybe yours? First up: Bounty
Why this Greenpoint girlie hasn’t been adopted is beyond me. Bounty is adorable and packs a pint-sized punch!
Milo is more pensive— as you can see in the above photograph by Lisacat.
These two Greenpoint cuties (and a few of their feline friends) will be available for adoption today at Muddy Paws. Check it out!

Eviscerated on Catherine Street.
Existentialist angst on Grattan.
And antisemitism on Moore. If this is supposed to be funny or “ironic” I am not getting the joke.
Hatred is not a laughing matter.

P.S.: While I am (titularly) on the subject of north Brooklyn Nazis, check this out. It is pretty intense. Special thanks go out to Amanda for bringing this to my attention.
UPDATE, 6:33 p.m.: Apparently a Facebook group has been formed to battle Greenpoint Nazi Skinheads. See the comments section for more details.
