Apparently the bus lost control and smashed head on into some parked cars, then backed up into a tree and storefront. Here's what it looked like when I arrived on the scene.

The Flash cartoon, "How the Grinch Stole Sex Dot Com", is the story of how con artist Stephen Cohen stole the valuable domain name sex.com from Gary Kremen, by forging a letter to Network Solutions. At the time of producing the cartoon, the gonif Cohen was still at large.

Fortunately for the runners, now tanked up on H2O, a vacant lot perfect for a quick piss is just one block away. This impromptu public urinal served many runners well today.

I don't get it: The strip is by Jerry Doyle, a political cartoonist from the New Deal era. Here is the text from the comic strip: Gent: "Boy o'boy!!

Looking at the La-Mar Reducing Soap ad on the left, found in an American newspaper from 1924, Dove's "Firming" concept doesn't seem all that new.

She comes around my apartment window sill here in Park Slope every year, begging for handouts. This time she was very aggressive. I think it is because she was pregnant.
