ugh i have to wait around for the exterminator tonight. we have the roaches 🙁 our building exterminates every month but we havent let him in for a long time since we had no bug problem. now we do. it’s probably the disagreeable lesbian couple who lives next door to us who foster kids. by the way when they leave the one girl (who is def. no older than 14) lets this much older man in the neighborhood in to screw her. LOUD. my roommate was telling me about it. i was like whoa who is making those noises? i thought the other loud lesbian couple who lives upstairs from us found a new girl to bring into the bedroom. it’s actually kind of disturbing to think about.

Yes, all the italian people have left Boerum Hill, Carroll Gardens and Cobble Hill. NOT!
cobblehiller comes up as Jenna Sinn : )
BRG, you can ask Chinatown Ice Cream Fac to put multiple flavors when you buy a pint, etc. Bad for the figure but great for the unit cost – ie per cone, cup price is super high compared to buying by the pint, quart,…
I believe DIBS since I heard he used to babysit young Al when Al was a toddler living in the Navy Yard. 🙂
Benson – there are defintely a few Italian strongholds still around there – especiually on 3rd avenue and Union/Carroll etc
Rob – mine is Peaches Carlton!
He was born somewhere in the Navy yard area. He moved to Garfield (and grew up ther) at age 14. I saw it several places.
Well, I’ve always kept my hair clean so I’ve never encountered Seba and I’m sure I had flings with Dia as a baby.
DIBS;
Wikipedia is wrong (surprise!). I know somebody who grew up on Garfiled back in the day (the guy is something like 90) and Al grew up on that block. In fact, the area around 4th Ave and Union was the biggest Italian enclave in Brooklyn back in those days, and it is virtually gone now.
the al capone thing… wasnt it president or carroll street? when i first moved to park slope i was walked out of the bodega on 4th and union and there was a crowd of people on a walking tour so i trailed along (it was pretty cool actually) and they were talking about the al capone house. what was his first pet’s name? then youd know his porno name. mine is Princess Bergenline.
