Itching for some scratch: From the NY Times: Fired? Just DJ!


Photo credit: Earl Wilson/The New York Times

AHH HA HA HA! Yup, I didn't even read it. The headline alone is enough for me.
Apparently the work force' loss is nightlife's gain (or at least weddings and Bah Mitzvahs) Lost your job? "Just bust a move"!! AHHH HA HA.... It's funny cause it's not true... The grey lady continues to amuse me.

Photo Wed 4/8/09: Spring's back When's Koch coming?

I don't know what those blossoms are, they're not cherries

This park bordered by Fulton St, Carlton Ave and start of Greene Ave in the Fort Greene swath of Brooklyn, has a rich history, which is detailed on the park's plaque.

But more recently (I believe in 1982) was rebuilt and rededicated in a ceremony that Mayor Koch was supposed to attend (as my cubscout master was told, who then told us cubs) it would have been a big deal seeing hizzoner in the Fort Greene of that time but whatever, he didn't show and the park still opened.
