Photos Du Jour: Long Island City Shots
Now that the Mac Off* is behind me I have had the time to upload some really lovely photographs from my latest sojourn to Long Island City. I hope you enjoy looking at them as much as I enjoyed taking them!
Footage from this evening’s Mac Off will be forthcoming tomorrow!

*Which was not without controversy. For starters Mizz Greenpoint does not in fact live in Greenpoint: she lives in Park Slope. In addition Red Star saw fit to put bacon in their mac and cheese thus precluding me from eating it. Not that this made any real difference; we immediately and unanimously agreed The Habitat deserved props. Way to go guys (and gals)!

Yes kids, that’s a bigass portrait of Bernie Madoff being rolled down Franklin Street. The man behind the Madoff (and the dolley) is none other than Paul Richard. At last we met! He was a very nice guy— if a bit coy.* He told me this portrait was purchased by a collector on the Upper East Side. Is this true? I’ll leave that up to you, dear readers, to decide.

*It should be noted that he seemed very happy to know the shit-laden manties on West Street were holding up.

Algul siento (the person who captured this choice morsel of Greenpoint glory) writes:
The funny thing is there was a pile of poo right below this sign.
I, being an optimist, would like to suggest that the previously mentioned dog poo was merely there temporarily. As you can see this sign gives pretty clear-cut instructions as to how to pick up the poop. Perhaps the person behind the behind that doled out these doggie dumplings merely went home to get his (or her) scoop?

TOMORROW: Adoptable Cuties At PS 9
By all reports it looks like it is going to be a beautiful weekend here in north Brooklyn. After (or perhaps before) indulging in some beer and goulash goodness in Greenpoint why not make a detour to PS9 Pet Supply and make the acquaintance of some of the lovely felines of Empty Cages Collective— like sweet little lass in the following video. Her name is Jo Jo, she is six months old and purrrfectly healthy. She would very much like to have a “forever home” to hang her hat. How about yours?

Greenpoint Photo Du Jour: R & R
Filed under: Greenpoint Magic
I can think of no better way to kick off the weekend (and some much needed R & R for yours truly) than this wonderful bit of street seating from Green Street. In other (unrelated) news:
- Those of you who have voiced interest in contributing to this blog and have yet to hear from me: you will. After an Internet outage I am a little bit behind.
- A date and location for Bob Guskind’s memorial service have been set! You can get the 411 by heading over to The Gowanus Lounge!
