Assuming that you know that the Vagina Tree did not survive.
R.I.P. Vagina Tree. The joy you have given people in north Brooklyn— and beyond— will not be forgotten. May you rest in peace pieces.
UPDATE, 12:10 p.m.: I have been advised that this tragic turn of events has caused the closure of Bedford Avenue. Plan accordingly, folks!
UPDATE, 8:40 p.m.: Special Correspondent Christine writes:
With a level of efficiency never seen before in McCarren or CB1 parks, the Vagina Tree is no more. Someone did place a few candles on the stump but the wind had blown them out.
*As some of you might have noticed I have amended the name of this post. Special thanks go out to Miss Mousey Brown for the catchy new title!

New York Shitty Day Ender: Meet Franklin
Filed under: 11211, Stuff That Makes Miss Heather Happy, Williamsburg, Williamsburg Brooklyn
I kicked off today’s posts with this particularly fetching porker. So I suppose it is only fitting I end the day with him.
His name is Franklin and per his “person” (who contacted me via email) he was holding court at his place of work and play today. Sensing a good “scoop” when I know one, I headed over without delay.
He’s cute.
No, make that VERY cute!
This is by far the most charming and articulate gent I have met in Williamsburg (two-legged or otherwise) in a long, long time. But alas, while I felt we made a “connection”, we had a very difficult time communicating with each other. I am not fluent in “Swine”. I do, however, have some very good news to relay; I have been granted an exclusive interview with “Franklin”. To this end I will be creating a list of questions for him this evening which his person, Joe, will field to him and translate! This will come to pass soon.
To be continued…
