Greenpoint Photo du Jour: Pomoz!!!
Some of you on the north end of Greenpoint might have noticed this sign (which is prominently placed on the front door of T & N Wine & Liquor). The imagery pretty much speaks for itself. What I was curious about (not being very proficient in Polish) was the text. Was this a flier admonishing folks about the dangers of public intoxication? Believe it or not the thought had crossed my mind. Knowing the cranktabulous owner of this establishment, Chris, rather well I really should have known better.
Last night my curiousity finally got the better of me and I asked him what gives. Follows was his (very general) translation):
HELP!!!
For every one of these fliers posted Mietek gets a bottle of lowest quality wine.
Show that you care.
Do not let this man get sober!!!
So there have you.

New York Shitty Slide Show du Jour: 5Pointz
It has been awhile since yours truly has paid Long Island City a visit. Today I did so, albeit hurriedly. I am not too sure what the deal was with the busload of tourists milling about but there was certainly plenty of wonderful art to be enjoyed. Without further ado here it is!

Reader Comment du Jour: F Is For…
It’s been awhile since I have showcased a comment from you, the readers. This is not because I have not been reading (and enjoying) them: I have. The previous having been written, I have to confess that this one (which is in reference to my post announcing the new Greenpoint tank tops available at Kill Devil Hill) is a little more compelling than most. K.A.A. writes:
Another thing to note is the nautical flags. Normally a red square in a white field stands for the letter F and is spoken as ‘Foxtrot’ . The flag also means ‘ I am disabled, communicate with me.’
In nautical and military slang it can also stand for the word Fuck.
So, it seems we have two disabled Greenpoint girls who at least want to talk, will probably go down and maybe even want to fuck
Too funny
It just goes to show you learn something new every day!
