- Famous Fat Dave is the only guy who could turn a car accident into a beef jerky occasion.
- Gotham Gal puts street fairs "under the category of city pests like rats, pigeons and cockroaches."
- Brownstoner commenters report from Crown Heights: "Crack everywhere between Atlantic and Eastern and east of Grand Avenue till the horizon."
- Ambush! Tom Suozzi got up in Eliot Spitzer's grille over the weekend.
- Still no sign of the child kidnapped from a tattoo parlor in the Bronx yesterday.
- Apparently there's a "secret lobster list" at OG in the East Village. Lockhart Steele told us that "secret shellfish is totally the new black."
- Class warfare breaks out at that crappy park in Brooklyn Heights. Viva!
- Curse you, Loki! We missed the Norwegian Day Parade!

    Yep, street fairs are mostly full of crap and just leave the place looking shabby. I'd like to see the standard increased to drop the chains and encourage a little more variety. This is NYC after all.

    Hey, anyone knows anything about the 'I love you' art?

  • We missed the Norwegian Day Parade.



    I think so .

    "The odds were stacked against me. The car in front of me was a S.U.V. It had New Jersey plates. The driver was a woman. She was talking on her cell phone. She was Asian. And we were in Chinatown."

    "She was the recent immigrant with a thick accent, and I am the white male who supposedly rules this country."



    IS THIS GUY SERIOUS? he's is pretty fucking offensive.

    Gothamgal is right on. While the street fairs where the local shops set up tables are nice and serve a purpose, those retarded ones in Manhattan selling the same, overpriced crap are just obnoxious. I can't believe the NYC government is willing to put the time and money into those things. I think someone should write Bloomberg and tell him that this is definitely something NYC should do without. In fact, I'll do it.

  • I dont think you posted it: but today on atlantic Ave in the BK there was a really fun art tour up and down to all of the little places. Good times.
