The construction fence isn’t even down and yet this edifice (which could pass as “workers housing” in any country with “People’s Republic” in its moniker) has already received a make-over.

Impressive.

East Williamsburg Photos Du Jour: The Shittiest Car in North Brooklyn?

As the previous post indicates, I have been experiencing a great deal of existentialist boredom of late. This is not to suggest I have seen it all. I haven’t— nor do I really care to. My imagination suffices. Nonetheless there are times when I am quickly and rudely awakened from my waking somnambulism. Today as I was walking down Ten Eyck Street was once such time.

When I see something like this I assure myself there must be a reasonable explanation. The best one I could muster in this situation was this vehicle was on the business end of a cement mixer. Upon closer inspection I deduced this was not the case.

No sir. This is 100% genuine north Brooklyn guano!

I find it strangely inspiring that no matter how much abuse we humans dole out to mother earth, she sees fit to strike back on occasion. In this case via the humble Columba livia. You go, girl!

Ever had one of those moments when you realize you need a vacation? Today I had one such moment.

Me (to myself):

Oh look, a street couch.

Wait, make that two street couches! I bet the gent taking a “nap” on this specimen is anatomically correct.

Sure enough, I was right.
