March 20, 2018March 20th
March 20th is the first day of Spring to the world.
March 20th is my brother’s birthday. He’s gone six years, but I think of him all the time. Often I laugh about all the funny things he did. But he and I had some of the most direct and intense conversations that two people could have. And for that I will always be grateful. RIP Phil.

March 19, 2018Free Water Barrel – April 14th – Dyker Heights
Call Dan Donovan’s office 718-630-5277 and ask them to reserve a barrel for you. This was announced at the 3/19 Community 10 meeting.
Let’s not let politicians think it is part of their job to give out water barrels from the DEP…..no! Donovan’s staff thinks that it is acceptable for a Congressman to have a DEP water barrel giveaway as his way of connecting to the community.

March 19, 2018Nicole Malliotakis’ Messages to Bay Ridge in March
At the Community Board 10 Meeting, Nicole Malliotakis should just send her staffer to say: “I got nothing.”
This was what was said:
- Nicole is in Albany fighting for you.
- Nicole Malliotakis took part in the demonstration against the hotel across the street from PS 104 (Nicole doesn’t represent that side of the district, but she showed up for the photo opportunity). Malliotakis has the ability to write a bill to stop hotels from being used as shelters, but she hasn’t done that. Senator Golden admitted to knowing about this situation for four weeks, so by now the two of them should have done something.
- Nicole will have a CPR Seminar in June in Bay Ridge – no details were available about it
- Nicole wants to see people at the St. Patty’s Day Parade (yes, seriously that was her message)
Mike Long, Conservative Party head gave Nicole an award because she ran against deBlasio (Yes, seriously). Malliotakis tweeted about it! Men don’t get awards for losing elections and I don’t recall any woman who needed an award for losing an election.
Malliotakis went up against a well-disliked Mayor. If a Republican was going to win, it would have been this year. Malliotakis lost by a landslide because reporters exposed the truth about the press release queen.
Malliotakis made a resolution to celebrate herself in public office. On the same day, Malliotakis wrote negatively on Twitter about Cynthia Nixon starting her election run against Cuomo (and here). So she isn’t celebrating all women – just herself.

March 19, 2018Grand Prospect Hall is NRA Friendly
CANCELLED – YES!!
On April 12th, The Grand Prospect Hall in Brooklyn is having the Friends of the NRA Party that Garguilo’s cancelled.
Michael Halkias, the owner of the Grand Prospect Hall has the audacity to give the Friends of the NRA a cheaper price for their event. He knows it was cancelled in Coney Island, but thinks it is okay to do it at The Grand Prospect Hall? Seriously?! See story here and here
How did Halkias become so disconnected from Brooklyn? How many people have had weddings or Sweet 16’s there?
Doesn’t Halkias realize that we aren’t going to tolerate the NRA here. This is Brooklyn! He will feel the pushback from the fantastic parents and community activists all over this borough. Good luck with that Halkias!
