    I agree

    BEEBOP is still missing. May the Heights Playah who let my cat loose over a long hot weekend with fireworks never have a day of peace again. How does it feel to be off off off off off off off off Broadway for the rest of your life? To everyone else, a REWARD is still being offered, no questions asked. 917-837-6899. He is due for his shots this week. Thank you and have a great day. .

    Anyone know the email address for Dr.Larry Weiss, former Head of St. Ann’s school? I’m trying to reach him.

    @RF, some assorted rolls, some cooked stuff, all rather enjoyable.
    like the drink specials, their sushi, imho, seems very fresh, but
    I also like Iron Chef a lot. it’s just that place is so cramped.

  • Soulman

    PSC: if you use his first initial and last name followed by the two words that name his present school (no spaces), it’ll get to him.

    PSC – followed by .org (oops)

    @Cop – sorry to hear about your bike. I unfortunately park my car on the street and had it damaged at least three times. A couple of years ago was damaged by the department of sanitation, but lately its it’s been vandalized twice. I have a nice car so it seems to be specially targetted by jealous scum vandals. Either that or there’s someone out there who does not like me and its going after my car… but that’s impossible b/c I’m extremely, extremely likeable. In any case, whoever you are, I’ll be watching…

    @Caitlin – If you get a new Iphone and you are with AT&T, I think they now offer insurance for $5 a month, which may be worth it. I’m specialist at losing or damaging iphones, so I feel your pain, although no one would dare take one off my hands on the street – cowards. Love your blog by the way.

  • @PSC

    Larry Weiss is now the Head at Brooklyn Friends School, which is a few blocks away (check Google).

    @Capulet thanks for the advice. I should take advantage of that insurance! And thank you for the kind words about my blog, glad you checked it out!

    Caitlin, I saw your blog also. Very nice. When I moved to NYC 35-years ago, a very good friend gave me some very good advice – never go out on the street with what you can not afford to loose. (I just carry enough cash to do what I need, and only carry 1 credit card, and medical ID information.) I don’t carry a driver’s license if I am not driving. DMV is a real pain to get a replacement permit.

    Also, you have to be aware of your surroundings at all times when you are out. Refrain from using a cell phone (or keep it hidden) and don’t display earphones in your ears if you don’t want to get mugged. That advice has always kept me safe.

    Yeah, it sucks, but you will be a lot safer if you follow his advice.

    Shame on you, Get off my loan.

    Since BHB loves celebrity stalking and complaining about dog poop, I feel obligated to report that I spotted Paul Giamatti this morning walking his tiny dog and he did, in fact, collect its poop and deposit in the trash like a responsible citizen.
