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 […]

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.

Monday, January 16th, 2017Bay Ridge March Against Hate – January 16th
I don’t know if they are marching against xenophobes or if they are marching against Trump as some of the signs seem to show hatred towards Trump….which is also okay.
Saturday, January 14th, 2017The Lutheran Church is Doing Outreach Bay Ridge
This is the only outreach this church does, but it’s at least something, right? Sad that it has to have the tone of hate. I think it’s nice that someone’s organizing an event with various cultures. Our Saviors Lutheran Church is holding the We Are Bay Ridge even on Saturday, January […]
