September 21, 2021College Student in Downtown Brooklyn Shot

A college student in Brooklyn was shot outside his school. And no one seemed to care!

Have people become immune to the shootings that they don’t even mention it on social media?
A 19-year-old college student was shot by a stray bullet outside the NYU Tandon School of Engineering in Downtown Brooklyn around 3:00 pm.
The student was shot in the arm and taken to Methodist Hospital.
No politicians spoke about it on social media – not even Eric Adams whose office at Borough Hall is right there.
Journalist, Meaghan McGoldrick didn’t think it was a big deal as there was only six shootings in that area this year. Sadly, a college student was stuck by a stray bullet and even a Brooklyn journalist wasn’t outraged, upset and didn’t seem to care.

September 20, 2021Bay Ridge Jewish Center Led With Grace
There’s a pandemic going on. People are on edge.
Political Leaders should have stepped in and talked with all.
If there is something upsetting you about a business, call them. Business owners here are very responsive. These businesses have been in the community doing good things for years. We all know it. Sometimes a staff member at these places makes a mistep. Try not to bite their heads off.
The Bay Ridge Jewish Center’s response was appropriate. They stomped on the hate and showed grace….something that is needed if someone has never done anything wrong before and has always been a good person.

Finally, nothing can compare to the Holocaust.

September 20, 2021Flags Aren’t Appreciated By Everyone Because They Don’t Know the Story Behind Them
This week, a teen in our area took down a NYPD blue American flag. I saw the video. I could tell she thought she was doing the right thing because she has seen these flags standing for the Blue Lives Matter Group. It was an act that was filmed for social media because the teen believed she was standing up against racism.
Here’s the sad part: the flag that was removed was for Officer Moira Smith, the only female police officer to die at the WTC on 9/11. Teens today don’t know about what happened in 2001 – they weren’t born yet. They don’t know about the Bay Ridge hero. (See here and see Moira’s daughter here) Someone in Bay Ridge should write a children’s book about Moira!
We live in America – it’s the greatest country in the world. People can rip up and burn our flags. (Yes it kills me because I like flags). But here’s what I know – good people will put up a new flag soon because we all know what it stands for and ** you are the reason that we live here. **

September 19, 2021Townhouse 275 – A Speakeasy in Bay Ridge

We didn’t ventured into Townhouse 275 until now. Our favorite place closed and we were looking for somewhere to have a drink, talk and hang out.
We wandered into the 94th Street cocktail lounge (It’s off third – behind Oishi Japanese Restaurant). It’s out of the way location may be what makes it a speakeasy. There is a small bar, interesting tables, old-style drapes and decor to give it a speakeasy vibe.
We’ve been to a few hidden speakeasy’s in Manhattan and Chicago (way before Covid) and usually there’s a hidden door and very old style decor that make the place a speakeasy.
TH275 is a small place with a bartender who creates really great drinks.
We returned to TH275 the following week with friends. They were equally as impressed with the drinks. The bartender was a lot busier, so he wasn’t able to chat, but we talked with some other people from the neighborhood – some we new before – most we didn’t.
Some people were a little annoyed that the drinks too awhile to be served (they don’t use the premixed drinks here). We weren’t because good drinks take time!
If you are looking for a relaxed place in Bay Ridge to grab a good drink, try Townhouse 275.
