Bruna, my Tank.

Around 9:00pm on Cinco de Mayo, Bruna followed me and Jasmin downstairs as we were packing up my apartment into a rental truck. A speeding Ford Expedition struck her. Miraculously, she is fairly unscathed. Enclosed are some photographs of her time in the hospital so far. She will come home with me this evening.

Jasmin has correctly noted that both Bruna and I have been hit by large SUVs, while acting foolishly, and we both miraculously came away with no damage other than some pain to our left (hind) leg. We’re quite a pair. I’m thrilled she’ll come home today.

Nina’s Argentinian Pizza.

Jasmin and I have often enjoyed their delightful pies. Sadly, they now have posters on the door decrying the subway construction on Second Ave. Apparently, many of the businesses along the avenue there are struggling, as people try to avoid all the hard hats. However, as long as they continue to serve their pesto pizza, they ought to attract a steady clientele.

A review of deific nectar.

I remain a bit unsure of how I stumbled across this gem. But it has kept me entertained for quite some time. I can’t say I whole-heartedly embrace their reviews, but they are thoughtful, and aren’t carbon copied from the distributor’s website.

What better way to drink down the man on tax day, no?

A bloody, kosher deli.

Bulls will then be offered

"Bulls will then be offered"

So, I must confess, I think this is really cool. Haven’t tried the food yet. I’ll report back when I do.
