I heard that the fight started after the neighbor found Foxy with her head stuck in her silverware drawer, shit all over the stove, and a empty bottle of Absolut BK on the floor.
That, I believe, constitutes a violation of the restraining order.
Absolutely, Foxy is an embarassment to herself, her family and the neighborhood, but she truly has some serious emotional problems. The girl who argued with her (yeh, I know it takes two to tango) lives s-i-x houses away. What I’m saying is, that neighbor had to have ACTIVELY sought out and engaged with Foxy for this ugly incident to have developed. And this in spite of the fact that she has a restraining order against Foxy. So come on, who’s baiting who?
As if, rob.
“what ever happened to just plain white ducks?”
They bred with the mallards [they’re closely related, domestic ducks having been bred from mallards], creating lots of hybrids, many of which can be seen near the Audubon Center. Some look like giant mallards while others have more unusual color patterns.

“what ever happened to just plain white ducks?”
They were crowded out, along with the wood ducks and pintail ducks you used to see in the park, by a very aggressive, invasive species – Canada Geese.
They’ve done a great job in the park clearing out invasive plant species and replanting natives. Culling the goose herd was a step toward doing the same thing for the park’s fauna.

Foxy Brown is an embarassment to herself and others. Here’s someone who was given (dubious) talent, and the ability to better herself, and go places, do things, and make the kind of money most people only dream about. What does she do? Stupid behavior that lands her in jail, time and again. I applaud her neighbor for not putting up with her just because she’s a celeb, or because she’s a first class b*itch. Somehow I bet her cell mates won’t be impressed either.
“jealousy is a disease”
*rob*
just leaving alone is stupid. they overbreed and have no predators. Need to exterminate regularly. Whole metro area needs to be doing this.
oh leave the poor Geese alone! however i do agree with the poster who mentioned the mallards and what ever happened to just plain white ducks?
Foxy is indeed 30 – that’s true!
also NY POST IS SO DUMB – St Marks is not in Fort Green – it’s prospect Hts – she lives near James restaraunt
What if we put geese heads on pikes scattered throughout the park as a warning to the other geese to stay away?
