Southside Photos du Jour: Meat Lover’s Special
Can someone please explain to me why someone (in this case, Diner) would see fit to employ this (a disembodied cow’s head) as decor? Is this for Halloween? What is the appeal? I honestly don’t get it.
This does not make me hungry (quite to the contrary: it makes me sort of queasy). Thoughts/feedback anyone?

East Williamsburg Halloween Watch: Haunted on Hewes Street
Filed under: 11206, East Williamsburg, East Williamsburg Brooklyn, Williamsburg, Williamsburg Brooklyn
I have been woefully remiss in posting some Halloween goodness from my friends to the south. Today I will redress this egregious oversight with some ghoulishly great decor courtesy of 363 Hewes Street. Enjoy!
I give this chap two enthusiastic (and blood soaked) daggers up!

Snapshots From Astoria
Yesterday evening the Mister and I ventured to Astoria to support our buddy Kevin Walsh, who happens to have a show of his photography at the Greater Astoria Historical Society. For those of you keeping count, this is the second day in a row we have ventured to the county of Queens. Anyhoo, it has been awhile I have been to my former stomping grounds (I lived in Astoria briefly during graduate school) so I brought along my camera and took a few photographs. Follow are some highlights. Enjoy!
What Elvira and Marilyn Monroe have to do with shoes I do not know. Regardless I found this display charming.
Change may have come to America but it’s still business as usual at this storefront. Despite his odious politics the man behind this missive is— believe it or not— a very nice guy. I have spoken to him.
I did a double take at this. Something else the greater Steinway Street and Broadway area sports are really cool old-school storefronts.
Like this…
and this.
A little ennui over pizza. And last— but hardly least—
my visit to Astoria taught me why I should never, EVER patronize a public pay phone again.
Damn.

TOMORROW: Neighborhood In The Hood
When I saw this artful arrangement of fliers on Broadway today I simply had to see what it was advertising. Here it is.
Apparently tomorrow, August 15, from 6:00 – 10:00 p.m., there will be an art opening at 99 South 6 Street featuring DJs, art and “free juice & more”. Intriguing— and the price is right!

And so the race to the bottom continues. Could someone please explain to me who watches this crap? Obviously someone does or they (in this case Oxygen) wouldn’t keep churning it out.
