  1. It’s true, 3:37, people are happy in PPS and PLG and once they get in they don’t leave. We’ve met many people who have been in PLG’s LM for over 20 years. White and black both.

    I’ve observed the various issues some people freak out about regarding certain neighborhoods, acts like a filter that lets in only people who share the same values. There’s something very similar and sympatico among all our neighbors in PLG. Tolerant, liberal, artsy, good-humored.

    The only reason one doesn’t hear buzz about PPS constantly is the lovely houses there are so seldom for sale. It’s not a bad thing. It means people love it there. But of course it takes logic to reason that one out! Which is in short supply around here.

  2. The two responses attempting a retort to 2:04 are completely retarded.

    2:04 was talking about Obama winning the Iowa caucuses (watch TV, you’ll learn what that is, since you don’t have a clue obviously) as a sign of change in this country in white’s attitudes towards blacks. The fact that a black man has demonstrated he has a real shot at the white house. The state of Iowa, a very very white state, chose him over the other Democratic candidates.

    Turns out Iowans are more progressive than many white Brooklynites. Seems the ranting about the ignorance and non-culture in the suburbs around here is completely unfounded.

  3. 1:25 “Gee, a mere $200,000 to die of a knife or gunshot wound. Sounds like a great idea.

    I have it on good authority that if you throw in another $50K they’ll include a couple of hours of torture before finishing you off. ”

    Hey racist f*cker, the neighborhood doesn’t suck as much as you do.

  4. 1:22,

    Not THAT interesting. This block of Winthrop Street IS in PLG (and has been since the name was coined in 1968); the former Caledonia Hospital, on Parkside Ave.,a few blocks west of Ocean Ave., is not.

  5. “1:15 Aren’t you forgetting the monthly maintenance of $384.31? Assuming a cost of capital of 7%, your annual outgoings before tax deductions are $12,542.37 per year”

    and aren’t you forgetting the tax deductions? why use before tax numbers to prop up your case?
