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!

East Williamsburg Photo Du Jour: Donde Esta?

It is at moments such as this that I feel vindicated for bucking what my high school counselor advised me to do, e.g.; learn Latin, German or French because (and I quote) “it looks better on a transcript”. I opted to take Spanish instead. The above missive reads “Where are my clothes?” and it hails from Seigel Street.
Where, strangely enough, I saw a number of individuals in various states of undress. By choice.

New York Shitty Day Starter: AUSNY For The (m)Asses
Filed under: 11211, East Williamsburg, East Williamsburg Brooklyn, Williamsburg, Williamsburg Brooklyn
This festive display of asswipes hails from a Graham Avenue 99 Cent Store. This product, Ausny (which, it has been noted takes simple transposition of letters to spell (“Anusy”), purports not only to be “ultra soft” and “3 ply” but is also “sterilized”! What I want to know is how the merry folk who grace said package factor into this? Are they the humanoid equivalent to the Dow scrubbing bubbles? Methinks I’ll field test it on the Mister and find out!
Miss Heather
UPDATE, March 12, 2010: It has been brought to my attention by a chap named Larry that the maker of this product also produces green tea flavored condoms. This begs the question as to when the wizards at Ausny will roll out green-tea infused toilet paper? North Brooklyn’s buttholes only deserve the very best!
P.S.: When I mentioned to the Mister that I photographed “a festive bunch of asswipes”. He assumed I meant hipsters. I was, in fact, speaking in reference to toilet paper. Picking on hipsters is boring. Assholes come in all ages and from every imaginable socio-economic background. On the other hand, toilet paper packaging that looks like an entire legion of McCarren Park Pool partiers are eager to wipe my ass. Well, that is something I can get behind!
