Bushwick Photos du Jour: All Apologies

What first struck yours truly was the Road Warrior-esque state of this vehicle. The above missive— one of the finest yours truly has ever had the pleasure of reading and I have read many— was the icing on the cake. If anyone from the Department of Sanitation is reading this please cut Dave some slack. If the unorthodox appearance of this ride is any indication, I’d say he has had enough problems of late.

From The New York Shitty Inbox: And Now A Message From Our President

Christine (who forwarded me the above item writes):

Dear Miss Heather,

After months, no make that years, of texts at all hours of the day always asking for me to do something or send in money or such. Today, I received this message from our President.   It has made it all worth it.

Please feel free to share with your readers.

I wonder what Michelle thinks of this?

When I saw these two stunning lasses this afternoon I simply had to take their photograph. Afterward, they told me about a fundraiser their group, Polish American Folk Dance Company, was conducting to pay for travel expenses so they can enter a competition in Poland. Naturally I swung by. That’s when I learned they will be performing their entry for our delectation at Greenpoint’s very own Warsaw June 19th. Methinks I will have to check this out!

P.S.: The PAFDC will be having another fundraiser this upcoming Saturday, May 21, at The Loft (which is located at 222 West Street). You can get the 411 for this event by clicking here!

Spotted At 1073 Manhattan Avenue: The Lobster Joint

A very excited chap named Charles writes:

Just spoke to a nice gentleman from the (awesome looking!) lobster place in the former lamb and jaffy space – he said they’re opening on the 25th with “lobster rolls, burgers, liquor” and it will be called “The Lobster Joint”. STOKED

Naturally I had to see this for myself. So today I swung by to see what gives.

They’ve done a really nice job with the exterior.

The interior looks rather inviting as well. After making it known I was a vegetarian (as as such doe not share Charle’s excitement about consuming crustaceans) the kindly proprietor (who is apparently a New York Shitty reader!) assured me there would be a “veggie melt” on the menu (which is not yet published) along with lighter fare such as salads. I may very well might to have to give this a shot come May 25th!

From The New York Shitty Photo Pool, Part III: Isador

Isador: Hunts Point Bronx

Chris Arnade (who took the above photograph) writes:

Isador was playing ball on the street while I was doing a photo shoot.

A huge Yankees fan, shortstop for his little league team, when asked who is favorite player is he said “Derek jeter! Do you really need to ask me that?”

Talking with him almost made me want to see Yankees beat the Red Sox. Almost.
