hyperlapse bike ride over all three bridges

actually looks like an appealing way to spend a couple of hours.

someone (or some THING) put these two faded out American flags on the Brooklyn Bridge piers overnight and the NYPD just removed them

you missed it!

there was a jumper on the brooklyn bridge a minute ago, but the police tricked him into thinking he had a reason to live, so he's down and safe now.

this guy took a pretty awesome picture through one of those coin-operated binocular things at the seaport.

i'm on this bandwagon.

some people kites flying to and fro, hopefully not creeping anyone out. via.

it's an active #ows day

follow along with their livestream.

around 5 or 6pm, theyre supposedly going to occupy the bridges. so that should be good tv.

kAnCeR aLeRt!!

REMINDER: its this thursday! sign up or show up or both!

just wanted to remind you all about a little event coming up called light the night. i know what you're thinking, but you're wrong. this one is really fun, because you get to walk over the brooklyn bridge with flashlight balloons! and it ends in world-famous brooklyn heights, which is where i live. and did i mention tina fey will be hosting the event? tina FEY!

as many of you know, our beloved 2Pz correspondent, bun-bun, was diagnosed with leukemia back in 2007. these days,  thanks to the wonderful care he's received as a result of the research funded by events like this one, he's feeling healthy and doing just great.

this year's new york event takes place on the evening of thursday, october 14th. i encourage all of our readers in the nyc area to join us. i'm not saying it's mandatory, but only because i shouldn't have to. visit rob's team page, and just sign up! then you'll be ripe to receive a few obnoxious emails, within which the tiny amount of information you actually need will be buried.

what's that? you don't live in new york? well, that's just ridiculous. but hopefully, you live in knoxville. this way, you can walk with rob's other team, led by his mom, ellen. she's a real delight, so don't be shy about joining her.

and, obvi, if you can't be there for the walk, go to rob's page anyway, and make it rain a few dollhairs all over kancer's face.

no matter how you choose to proceed, bear in mind that i'll be watching you, and so will tina fey. if you have any questions, ask rob, not me. can't wait to see you all there! k bye!
