I can be yours to love and ride all night long for only $75.00. I need new tubes, other than that I’m puuurfect.

XOXO

Anyone interested in taking Kia home tonight should direct his/her inquiries to Kill Devil Hill.

I offer this, dear readers, for your Monday morning commute delectation. No matter how shitty your job may be, you can take solace that there is always something worse.

Have You Seen This Charcoal Grill?

I can’t imagine what kind of jerk would steal a barbecue grill but clearly such a person exists, hence the above flier (which I found on Greenpoint Avenue). If you have seen this barbecue grill (which, among other things, is massing a handle) please contact the rightful owner at the above telephone number. Thanks!

Yes, yet another contender has thrown his/her ring into the tattoo ring in Greenpoint. This establishment’s name is Andromeda (which I would presume to be an offshoot of that Andromeda of Ab Fab fame) and its business hours are noon – 10:00 p.m. Sunday through Thursday, noon – 11:00 p.m. Friday and Saturday.

This development makes me wonder if tattoo parlors slated to become the next banks* here. Thoughts, anyone?

*Yes, Thai restaurants have been supplanted by usury.

Well, the main office is now toast and the Flushing Office is now a cheesy strip of stores. Maybe Miss Heather can clue us in to the fate of the Greenpoint Office…

I am pleased to report that the former site of the Greenpoint office of the Long Island Star-Journal is alive and well. What’s more, it’s thriving!

NAPOLEON RIDES AGAIN!!! Albeit at the behest of Dunne’s Polemost Liquors in Little Poland.

Has Anyone Seen Colby?

A cat is lost on Guernsey near Meserole… The owner gave me a flier and she seemed quite upset about losing Colby so perhaps you can get the word out?

If any of you have seen Colby, please contact his person at either of the above telephone numbers.

Thanks!

Meet Belvedere XL

So that photo you posted a few weeks back on Guernsey where it looked like they were putting styrofoam up on a building turns out to be the latest Belvedere atrocity – BELVEDERE XL!

When I read the above email I thought she had certainly made a typo. I was all too wrong.

Presenting Belvedere XL!

God, this is just screams great advertising copy like:

Livin’ Large At Belvedere Forty

or

Sip Your Forty At Belvedere Forty!

or best yet

Belvedere 40 …Works Everytime!

I want to give a big thanks to Diana G and the wizards at Belvedere Realty for giving me the biggest laugh I’ve had all week!

P.S.: I am still eagerly awaiting the debut of Belvedere 30. Think about it.
