Oh, yea, Montrose Morris, I’m sure you’d restrain yourself from “celebrating someone else’s misery” if Ratner’s AY project flopped. (By the way, I think that was your shortest post on record. Please keep it up.)
Mopar, no I have not…strictly out of principle. Too busy spending all my $ at big box retail, car payments, and many other things most people on this blog avoid….out of principle.
Dear Blue Marble: please open a store in Carroll Gardens. Treat Truck Bakery + Blue Marble = Heaven.
Look what I found in an article in the Wall Street Journal today about regional tastes in fashion:
“Brooklyn, New York, is increasingly a center for indie fashion, with designers whipping up jewelry in their apartments, selling them at the “Brooklyn Flea” market and wearing home-sewn clothes. In food, says Ms. Nielsen, Brooklyn residents are likewise leading the trends for the area. “They’re making their own pickles, butchering their own meat,” she says. “It’s what I call ‘party like it’s 1899.’ ” “
BOD, have you tried them? Rather amazingly intense perfectly ripened fruit. I can’t eat it all at once. I have one in the freezer and take bites from it now and again.
what’s amazing about People’s Pops is the price per popsicle….$3.50 each! Hello, it’s a flavored ice cube. A gallon of milk or gasoline, costs less. Glad some of you get it….’cause I don’t.
“do you ever stop to think that someone worked really hard to make that store a success, and that now all the employees of said store are out of jobs?
rob, if you had the intelligence and motivation to start your own business or have accomplished anything in your pathetic life, you would understand that this is in no way “a win”. you really are a sad human being.”
Sorry, I just felt this warrants repeating.
People’s Pops are amazing. Blue Marble, not so much.
Blue Marble SEZ they’re doing great.
