Picture Postcard: The Most Dangerous Game

25 Jun

June 25, 2013

Think it is easy living in the city? We have to deal with subway shutdowns, constant highway construction delays, taxes that equal the gross national product of certain small nations, rats the size of Mayor Bloomberg, Mayor Blombergs the size of midgets, and now, urban human sport-hunting.

no hunting

They hunt the Most Dangerous Game of All- sedentary apartment dwellers.

I snapped this picture myself and, ironically, this building is right next door to the 63rd precinct station house. Of course, depending on your view of the NYPD, this sign might be quite apt.

I just wonder what has been going on to make the owners put up a sign like that.

I took this picture last year, October 29th, right after Hurricane Sandy. This is diagonally across the street from my apartment.

That poor tree on the left looks pretty bad. Let’s check in on it today and see how it is doing.

It’s beautiful how green and full of new growth it has become. Sometimes you never notice the little things right around the corner (or across the street.) Nature really is a thing of beauty, and mature always prevails.
