A Walking Blood Cell in LIC
Nothing is more surreal than crossing the street in Long Island City yesterday beside what I can only guess is a giant, glasses-wearing red blood cell, and overhearing him talking to the guy next to him about how hard it is to find an affordable 2-bedroom in the city. They went into a Mexican restaurant,…
Is This George Jetson’s New York City Apartment??

What’s Going On With This Red Mini-Van?

It’s way cool to see the shoe driving around.
Pumpity pump
haha…I wonder if this is the show that was parked outside the Marshall’s shoe store right by 8th & B’Way. The store didn’t last long, and the ‘shoe-mobile’ I think was only there for a few days. Maybe it actually had nothing to do with Marshall’s….

I really enjoy your Scouting reports.
