The Brooklyn Daily Eagle: Everything You Need to Know

Kim and I are doing well and getting tantalizingly close to the end of our respective semesters. That, combined with the fact we both got a lot of good work done on our papers today, has us in pretty good spirits. Consequently, I'm happy to share with you two useful pieces of information I found on the Brooklyn Daily Eagle's website. First, here's an update to "Sweet Lily," who I mentioned in my last blog: http://www.brooklyneagle.com/categories/category.php?category_id=31&id=20116. She continues to be doing well and made it to another Poly Prep girls' lacrosse game today. Lily got to dress herself and showed up in a white, zip-up, hooded sweatshirt and a purple dress. For footwear, Lily wore a shiny silver "magic shoe" on her left foot and a "Sleeping Beauty" slipper on her right foot. I guess having greater concerns than fashion allows one more flexibility than is otherwise conventionally exercised.
In other news from the paper, I found out where not-to-stay when visiting Bay Ridge: The Gregory Hotel. Here's a link to their article on the establishment, explaining that they just found their third dead body within the last six months: http://www.brooklyneagle.com/categories/category.php?category_id=7&id=20178. Regrettably, I recommended this site to the Figuereido's when they came to visit in March. I'll be sure not to make that mistake again and plan on using this as good reason to continue encouraging visitors to stay with Kim and I, rather than spending their money and "taking their chances" elsewhere.
In the meantime, best regards to all and a big congratulations to Adam and Rita who finally found out Rita's been accepted to Boston University's School of Social Work for the upcoming Fall. Yeah!!!
