We Got Booster Shots Today at Walgreens

Three weeks ago, we made appointments for today – it was the first available appointment at Walgreens on 3rd Avenue.

Here’s what I didn’t know until the pharmacist told me: The booster is half the dosage of the other vaccines. It’s hours after the vaccine and we didn’t have any side effects.

Walgreens was fast and easy. There was no line.

While we were there, a man without an appointment came in and got his booster shot as well.

Cug Eats Stacked Slice at Lenny’s Pizzeria

In Saturday Night Fever, John Travolta ate a stacked slice at Lenny’s Pizzeria.

Cug, a man born in Italy and now living in NY, made a Tik-Tok video when he visited Lenny’s and tried the stacked slice.

I don’t know anyone in Brooklyn who eats the slice like that, but lovers of that move like to try it.

RIP Fadhl Moosa – He Was Just 20 Yrs Old

My Facebook is full of pictures and condolences for Fadhl Moosa. Fadhl was shot and killed at his father’s deli on Tuesday evening. He was only 20 years old.

Thousands of people gathered in Bensonhurst for Fadhl’s funeral. Click video below and see here

It’s amazing the family wanted these elected officials at their son’s funeral when they haven’t done anything to stop this. New mayor Eric Adams promised to make the city safe. (See here)

Fadhl Moosa was shot on Tuesday night while working at his Dad’s business. The Flatbush Deli Corp at 803 Flatbush Avenue around 7:45 pm. See story here

A man came in to rob the place and demanded cash. (Source) Fadhl Moosa and the thief fought. The man fatally shot Fadhl Moosa.

Moosa was working at the deli this year and planned to go to college on campus next year because he didn’t like remote learning. (Source)

The Daily News wrote that the shooter may have been a regular at the deli. (See here)

There is a rise in bodega shootings and stabbings, but no one in charge of NYC is saying ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.

I can’t imagine how terrible this is for Fadhl’s family – he was just a kid and didn’t even have a chance to live his life.

People remembered Fadhl as being a happy person. One person who visited the store wrote this:

RIP Fadhl Moosa. Prayers for his family and friends. He’s with God.

Traffic Cops All Over Bay Ridge – Why Won’t They Ticket the Trailers on Poly Place, 86th Street and 7th Avenue?

From blocks away, I saw this police car with the lights on. I thought something terrible must be happening. As we drive down the block, we see the traffic officer is ticketing a car at a hydrant.

Be careful where you stop or park this weekend, Bay Ridge!

Why aren’t these officers ticketing the trailers and trucks on 86th Street, Poly Place and 7th Avenue? Every commercial vehicle on those blocks should have tickets.

Someone is allowing these trailers to park on our streets – either the 68th Precinct or the politicians in the area.
