Coming To Greenpoint: The Dead Milkmen

I spied the above fliers at Beacon’s Closet today before endeavoring upon a fruitless search for sundresses. What I found were “clothes for hos” instead. This in and of itself would not have been a problem— but they were big for me to wear! Nonetheless I was pretty jazzed to learn the Dead Milkmen are coming to town. Given the “thing” for all things nowadays 80’s this is probably the coolest to come to north Brooklyn since the Cramps!

As this sign from Christina’s Polish Restaurant attests: everyone’s Irish on St. Paddy’s Day! Have a very happy (and safe) St. Paddy’s Day, Greenpointers!

From The New York Shitty Inbox: Dead In The Water?

March 16, 2011 ·
Filed under: 11222, Greenpoint, Greenpoint Brooklyn, Greenpoint Magic, Newtown Creek 

This item comes courtesy of an anonymous tipster:

On Wednesday, March 16, 2011 at 1310 hours in the confines of the 94 pct.  Police responded to a male in the water (Newtown Creek) in the rear of 16 Bridgewater Street.  Upon arrival officers discovered a M/H-W/30-40 floating in the water unconscious and unresponsive.  EMS responded and pronounced the aided DOA.  Medical Examiner to determine the cause of death. The investigation is ongoing and the ID of the victim is pending.

First it was a horrific hate crime on the Northside and now this. This is proving not to be a good week in north Brooklyn. It goes without saying I will be asking about this (among other things) at the next 94th Precinct Community Council meeting…
