Crosstown Local Photos Du Jour: To The Dude Peeing On The Metrocard Machine This Morning

You must have been pretty drunk since you did not seem to notice me. To refresh your memory: I was the woman in the furry jacket waiting to use the Metrocard machine for its intended purpose.

Damn.

Noticing this woman was having a rough morning I wished her a better weekend as I exited. To wit she replied:

Thanks sweetie and have a happy Thanksgiving!

If you happen to have this woman as your bus driver, please be nice to her. Her’s is a tough and often thankless job!

From The New York Shitty Inbox: A Christmas Card Inquiry

(Or would that be a Hannukah quandary?) My friend Amy from Assemblyman’s Joe Lentol’s office writes:

Hey Heather, We are trying to come up with a creative idea for holiday cards for Assemblyman Lentol… One idea we have is putting a Christmas outfit- ok really just a hat- on the office cat, Brooke (whom we adopted from BARC) and take a picture and make that our office holiday card.  But another is buy holiday cards from a local— READ: Greenpoint, Williamsburg or Fort Greene artist.  However, try as we might we cant find an artist who makes holiday cards.  Any suggestions?

I have to be honest: I drew a blank. I have to confess the holiday season is most decidedly not my thing. However, I know damned well somewhere in points ‘Burg, Green and Greene there is an immensely talented individual (we have many) who has created a card that fits the bill! You can tender your product/portfolio/suggestions via email to:

AssemblymanJoe (at) gmail (dot) com

NOTE: this is a temporary email address erected for just this purpose. If you have constituency issues to take up with Joe you can and should do so here.

Thanks— and good luck!
