Urban Fur: Meet Cody
I encountered this winsome chap today while I was out and about. His person, a very nice lady whose name I did not get, assured me tongue dangling is Cody’s M.O. She then quipped to her male companion that perhaps he’d get more women if he walked down the street with his tongue hanging out. Who knows— it might be worth a try!

P.S.: This post goes out to Ma and Pa Heather. Today they had to put their beloved Tortie, Matisse, to sleep. She was a pip, that cat. She will be missed.

Great Moments In Advertising: Herbal Clean
Polishing off my selections from East Harlem I present you with this item which was the source of considerable debate between yours truly and the Mister. He said he thought it was advertising a product to help you beat urinalysis. I countered that it was shilling a laxative. Or at least that’s what I hope it is for. A cursory search of Herbal Clean’s web site does nothing to clear up this mystery. However, Herbal Clean offers an array of interesting products— including Emu Oil!

Greenpoint Photo Du Jour: Loren
I have a confession to make: both the Mister and myself were completely taken by surprise when we encountered this: a grand opening for the newest business to grace the Garden Spot, Loren. Here’s what I have found via the Interwebs about this establishment:
The options out there for denim are, to put it mildly, many. Endless cuts, colors, washes, selvages—the prospect of navigating it all is enough to keep you in your oldest pair forever. But at his new shop, LOREN, opening tomorrow in Greenpoint, LIPS jeans designer Loren Cronk has simplified the options and is offering them all at one denim-obsessed store. LOREN is the launching pad for Cronk’s three new brands—Soldier & Brave, Melody, and BLKSMTH—each of which comprises a limited number of styles, and together run the price gamut from cheap to expensive, the better to suit anyone and everyone…
Anyone out there have anything to add? If so please share via email at: missheather (at) thatgreenpointblog (dot) com or via comments. I’d love it hear it!
