Did you ever notice the Department of Sanitation names its trucks?

I do now. I wonder if e. e. cummings has a truck?

When the Mister spied two gents giving this truck a thorough wash-down he dashed over and asked how old it was, the make and model, etc. All I had to add to this discussion was that they should give the lady gracing the hood some sunscreen. Believe it or not, they found this tremendously amusing.

P.S.: On a Banker Street related note does anyone know what is going on here (the junction of North 15 and Banker Street at Nassau Avenue)?

I first noticed the Murphy’s Munchiemobile on May 4th. Now, as you can see, it is accompanied by a van…

and someone appears to be clearing the lot. For what, I do not know.

If any of you, dear readers, have insight about this curiousity please tender them via comments or email at: missheather (at) thatgreenpointblog (dot) com. Inquiring minds (mine, foremost among them) want to know!

Spotted On North 12 Street: Witnesses Wanted

When I see fliers such as this my heart sinks. Granted, there are a fair number of negligent bicyclists to be found on our streets. I complain about them. Often. However, they are child’s play compared to the influx of cabs and livery drivers who now negotiate north Brooklyn’s streets. I have seen their driving personally on multiple occasions. It is terrifying. If you or anyone you know witnessed the above-described accident please call Mike. Fault-finding and accusations aside, all parties involved need to know what happened.

On a related note, I was (fairly) recently contacted by a gentlemen who is interested in speaking to anyone who might have witnessed Solange Raulston’s untimely death on McGuinness Boulevard last year. His name is Dave and you can reach him at:

Thanks!

P.S.: These are the coolest fairy wings I have ever seen. I half-joked to this lovely (and very focused) lass’s mother that I would buy them for $50.00. Nothing doing.
