It's been a while, but (yawn, stretch) I think I'm ready to emerge from my winter's hibernation ... I feel like I need a remedial course in blogging. Whatever did I used to write about?
Greenpoint! Though some may argue that our imminent Starbucksification is a sign of doom, some parts of the neighborhood remain resolutely anti-commercial (sort of):
I'm not sure if you can call this a typo if the sign across the block replicates the error ...
Wait for the beep! YouTube saves the day again -- I've had these answering machine jingles lodged in my head since 1986 or so. Leave your name, leave your number ...
Arts & Letters, and cats! I think it's sort of funny that my mom has a black cat named Sasha and Mr. L. Management has been translating a poet named Sasha the Black for a while. Well, if not really funny, then at least a little cute. Anyway, you should check out his new -- never before translated into English! -- batch of poems over at Archipelago, just the thing for a sleety day in mid-March.
happy weekend!
Welcome back, mouse!
It's time to take a stand against commericalism and gerntricifation
