| A quick jog down Van Buren towards Von King Park, past the houses that all have the round gate posts |
 |
| Right away -- once inside the park -- the 79th Precinct makes its presence known. Cop stands between a tree and a rock, facing the bandstand. |
 |
| Lonely at the cop. |
 |
| And inside the bandstand, some rappers, rapping about staying in school, but using lots of swear words nonetheless. Reassuring that rap keeps its ethics. |
 |
| The audience, my neighbors. |
 |
| It's someone's birthday, so they get a special notice. |
 |
| Cop no. 2. |
 |
| Then further on, on Lafayette Ave., there's a movie shoot. I think the movie's called 'Gun Hill,' but don't quote me on that. |
 |
| The gear to bring the 'Gun Hill' to life, as it were. |
 |
| Don't forget the catering services. |
 |
| Blurry extra stuff. |
 |
| The last of the 'Gun Hill' trailers. |
 |
| At Bedford and Clifton there's a building that just can't get built. It's been almost-done for two years. Keep trying! |
 |
| And on the lamp post, someone's missing a cat. |
 |
| But not this one...one of many strays sitting on the curb next to one of many garbage bags. |
 |
| A multi-tasking gate. |
 |
| At the wine shop, Duchamp's bottle rack comes full circle. The guy in the shop didn't know what I was talking about, however, when I mentioned Duchamp. I've had too much art school, that's for sure. |
 |
| On the way home. Just a street. My street. |
 |
| Hey -- more cops. On my corner. What's the f*&#%ing problem? Oh -- lotsa guns in the neighborhood lately. Gun Hill for sure, unfortunately. |
 |
| Cat sitting, in both senses of the word. |
