This item has been brought to my attention by my buddy down at BK Southie. He writes:
Heather,
The below story is posting on my site at 7am on Friday. But I know you both love a good blogger-hearts-the-newspaper-that-copies-from-him story, so I’m sending you the early edition.
Follows is the introducttion/a teaser:
Dear Community Newspaper Group,
Thank you for reading.
I genuinely mean that. I’m not bitter at all about the story and feature ideas you’ve taken from this site without credit. In fact, I really think that it’s fantastic that a mere amateur writer such as myself can make such a meaningful contribution to a cog in the News Corp engine…
Yes dear readers, it would appear my friend down south has had the pleasure of being poached. Repeatedly. Do take a moment to give his tome a read. It’s a hoot!

LAST GASP: Meet The Coney Island Post-Impressionists
Today’s New York Shitty “Day Ender” has come to pass. But after stumbling upon the following Coney Island cuties via my friend’s Amusing The Zillion’s flickr page I simply had to post them. STAT.
I have named this lovely lass “Madame Matisse” due to the lovely orange line down her nose.
Methinks I’ll keep the Post-Impressionism ball rolling with this cutie. Just like her sister and brothers she was born in the Luna Park Houses, and given her intense(ly cute) and pensive demeanor I name her Suzanne. As in Suzanne Valadon. Ms. Valadon clearly loved tri-colors. What’s not to love? It’s like getting three cats in one!
Gauguin doesn’t hail from Tahiti. She comes from Coney Island Brooklyn, USA!
I cannot ascertain if this one is female or male (I’m guessing the latter). In any case he (or she) doesn’t like the exposure, if you will. For this reason I have decided to name him (or her) Cezanne:
The world doesn’t understand me and I don’t understand the world, that’s why I’ve withdrawn from it.
Due to the numerous spots on this tabby’s belly I have named him (or her) Seurat. For obvious reasons.
Anyone interested in learning more about these Coney Island cuties should contact their stepmother at:
hello (at) triciavita (dot) com
Thanks!

Hi Heather
I’m trying to find a home for 7 kittens from Coney a la The Gowanus Lounge’s “Adoptable Cutie of the Week.”
How could I possibly refuse to lend a hand? These bona fide Coney Island babies are the cutest damned things I have seen in a VERY long time! What’s more, can you blame them for going to Coney? They were probably hoping to catch a mermaid or two(‘s heart)!
If any of these fetching felines has caught yours— hook, line and tummy spots— you should contact Tricia at amusingthezillion (at) gmail (dot) com.
