| I thought this lineup of objects at the corner of Lafayette and Marcy Aves, right here in Bed-Stuy, was an art piece. But I passed the same corner yesterday and there were more objects, lined up, but there were also people lined up, with bags and carts - it was a line for free food for the needy, and the objects lined up so carefully, it turns out, are placeholders - if you want to keep your place in line, put something there. Then the people left and the objects remained. |

| These four pictures (above) are from the pizza and chicken place on Nostrand Ave between Lafayette and Clifton. The guy who works there is playing surveillance footage from the previous day, which shows a full-on fight that lasts many minutes. Gang b-s, most likely. |

| I saw this guy at Atlantic Terminal - he was burdened by carrying something bulky in every pocket and also by having attached additional things to himself - wrapping things around his legs, for example. I was walking behind him. He didn't always use the crutches and I guessed that it wasn't his legs or feet that were troubling him. I wish him the best of luck, peace and quiet, and an end to his restlessness. |
