Democratic District Leader Mark Treyger is having a workshop. Last year, Treyger gave money to Assemblywoman Pam Harris to run a not-for-profit from her home and no one could account for the money that was spent. We knew someone was wrong when we contacted Melissa Mark Vivierto’s office and they wouldn’t return a call, put […]
Thursday, January 26th, 2017Golden and Malliotakis Failed to Protect NYPD – DeBlasio Steps in
In December 2014, Senator Golden and Nicole Malliotakis told the papers that they were getting bulletproof windows for the NYPD. (See here) and here It’s January 2017 and DeBlasio put the bulletproof glass in NYC’s budget yesterday. Today there is an article about Malliotakis/Golden applauding Mayor DeBlasio. It’s amazing how fast these pols […]
Thursday, January 26th, 2017This Morning…
After getting out of bed, I read my mail and saw a strange message (see post below). Then I looked outside and saw a dead Christmas tree outside my gate. Knowing that the city has been lax about picking up trees, I wasn’t thrilled at seeing the discarded fir tree. When I got home from work […]
Wednesday, January 25th, 2017Dear Chuck Otey
Mr. Otey, One of the great things about the Internet is that people like me can share the truth in our neighborhood just as easily as writers who want to hide the truth from us. To those who view my blog regularly, I woke up to a comment left on my blog […]

Sunday, January 22nd, 2017Why I Didn’t March…
In my lifetime, I’ve never seen protests get things done. Productive protests for civil rights and the Feminist Movement were before my time. When I was a 9 or 10 years old, my Mother joined with some other moms in Sunset Park to protest prostitutes working on 4th Avenue and 60th Street. The prostitutes […]
Saturday, January 21st, 2017Petit Oven in Bay Ridge is Closed and for Sale
UPDATE: August 2017 – Little Forno Opened – See here Petit Oven is now Little Forno – new owners. Petit Oven closed their doors for good. It’s another small business in Bay Ridge that we are sad to see close. The women who owned the small French cusine restaurant were pleasant and the place was fantastic. […]
Friday, January 20th, 2017Menchaca and Williams Grandstanding
While NY’ers are upset with the results of an election, Carlos Menchaca and Juumane Williams are grandstanding to get media attention. Story here Menchaca and Williams resisted arrest at a rally outside Trump Tower. What these politicians didn’t get was that protest was about the people – not a few individuals who wanted […]

This morning before 10 AM, a 47 year old man jumped from the top of his apartment building on 80th Street off Third Avenue (it looks like 269 – 80th Street from the photo). The article states he suffered from depression. RIP tortured soul.
Friday, January 20th, 2017St. Agatha School is Closing
On January 9th, Saint Agatha’s School announced that it was closing its doors for good on June 30, 2017. St. Agatha’s is on 48th Street and 7th Avenue. St. Agatha is a small school that always seemed to be forgotten about. Actually, I am surprised it is open this long. An online petition […]
Friday, January 20th, 2017Treyger’s Press Release is Far From the Truth
Councilman Mark Treyger pumped a press release out and Kings County Politics printed it. While Treyger’s section of Brooklyn is FILTHY and people who live there complain about it, Treyger’s press release tells otherwise. Press releases are the lazy politicians way to do nothing and pretend that things got done.
