Only the Blog Known Brooklyn has compiled the annual Park Slope 100: “100 stories, 100 ways of looking at the world, 100 inspiring people, places and things.” The list includes A Year in the Park‘s Brenda Becker, “because in 2008 you decided to visit Prospect Park every day as an urban adventure (and, not least, as a drug-free antidepressant!), and to chronicle your discoveries”; WNYC’s Andrea Bernstein, because “your reporting of Hillary Clinton’s primary campaign was always top notch, as were your stories from battleground states”; and “Jake the panhandler who stands in front of ACE Supermarket on Seventh Avenue and Berkeley Place because you’ve had a tough life, you always ask so nicely and you have such a big, warm smile.” Other mentions: Bill de Blasio, John Hodgman, D’Vine Taste and Medusa Salon. Read the full list, and if you have more, add ’em here.
I stopped reading OTBKB years ago. Louise fancies herself an arbiter of all things important. She also fancies herself a writer. Most of her blog consists of cut-and-paste features from other blogs or nytimes.com
And then there’s the annoying stories about her lovely family, particularly her hubby and kids, with their cute nicknames. They’re gonna need some heavy-duty therapy when they grow up.
And then there’s her gawking and looking through closed shutters at PS “celebs” homes and new stores and restaurants.
Puullleeeeze! Spare us.
. . . and her kid’s band and the person who photographs them and his pre school teacher and some other pre school parent buddies/next door neighbors . . .
Maybe there is a companion “Louise Crawford Shit-list”.

What did I have for breakfast? Is that what you asked?
Oh, I’m going to be so GOOD in about 3 months. Just you wait. I’ll be bilingual once and for freakin’ all. I’m going to be a Spanish speaking machine I tell you.
benson, yes, I did notice the distinction. Thanks for continuing to be a good sport.
I can see someone in your line of work saying that, Biff. All those Asshats in finance are the same boorish, philistine types.
Biff and Dave;
I knew that was coming. NOTE, however, that I did not “out” the business person.
On track with the smiles!
