And To Think That I Saw Bees On Mulberry Street
I was just going through an old hard drive when I came across some pictures of one of the odder things I think I’ve ever come across scouting… Last August, I was scouting around Little Italy when I suddenly noticed a crowd of people forming at the corner of Mulberry & Grand. On closer inspection,…
Being Watched
I was recently up scouting the College of Mount St. Vincent, which has a gorgeous campus overlooking the Hudson River. Mount St. Vincent often appears during daylight hours as an archetypal college in movies and TV shows (the movie Doubt in particular). But personally, I love visiting at night. Seriously – how can you beat…
Where New York City Begins
One of my favorite ways to drive into New York is via Jerome Avenue in the Bronx. As you head south from Yonkers, both sides of the road are overgrown with beautiful green foliage. To the west is Van Cordlant Park…
The Aristocrat: The Mystery of the West Village Camper
I swear the camper in this picture has been parking on this street for years. Years. Right around the corner from this block is a Manhattan office building that is routinely rented out by film productions. I’ve worked out of there on numerous movies, and over the course of a job, you end up driving…

Don’t knock till ya try it Scout.

Did they forget to put the seat on that pair of shorts?
The name of the store is Colombia Jeans Levantapompis, which pretty much translates to Colombia Bottom Lifter Jeans. I live near Fordham Rd. in The Bronx and have been to this store. What they sell is all sorts of items to lift, tuck and flatten various parts of your body when you are less than in perfect shape. The “shorts” in the front window are not shorts, it’s a girdle to lift your tush underneath your clothing. The jeans are way over- priced in my opinion, even though I did get a pair, I stopped wearing them after a few uses because I really hate feeling like a stuffed sausage, now I’m just working out. These items are very popular among south american women but have gathered more popularity among other latina women in the past few years. Hope this helps!
Well, there is a certain segment of the population that goes for the Big Bodacious Butt – and more power to them if that’s what make people happy! I’m sure we all (unfortunately?) remember the Sir Mix-A-Lot tune…
