"BIGGING Up My Borough"-The Skinny On Two New Openings

Okay allow me to break it down for you. You got KFC, McDonalds, Burger King, Golden Crust, Apple Bees, Dominoes, Subways, Papa John's, Popeyes, Halal, Jamaican, AND Dominican restaurant all in ONE area! And NO this isn't a food court I'm talking about! It's in the Bed-Stuy...sorry Stuyvestant Heights neighborhood between the Fulton & Franklin and stretches stomachs all the way to Thompkins. NOW one more has been add to the list, the just opened burger chain Checkers joint on Nostrand Ave! And from the looks of things it seems to be a HIT and it's only been open for two weeks now. But it's ALWAYS packed, especially with overweight tweens released from "Juvie Hall" aka called High School. LOL. Now I'm hearing that 7 Eleven is looking (or rather IS) opening up on Flatbush Ave. and Fulton St. to help out with the widening of Brooklynites waist lines. Located right across from Juniors, I'm sure this TOO will be a success as well. What's next Denny's? Waffle House? Big Boy's? Or a Church's Fried Chicken? Huh? Fast food is the NEW crack in the hood fo' realz! Damn, I just made myself hungry from writing this stuff man!

"The Golden Arch-Enemy" -McFunny Stuff

I know Mickey D's made commercials that catered to African-American demographics, and finally someone called them out about it! And it's about God D#@* time! Thanks for the link Rasu.

"Throw Them Bows"-Ahhh, Is It Summer Already?

I'm sure glad the weather is FINALLY warming up a bit, Seems like all the signs of spring are showing up around the city. Outdoor eateries, flea markets and stoop sales. Ice cream truck chimes, longer daylights hours, oh, and then there's the random street/ bum fights that are a sure bet to see. You can bet good money that as the temperature heats up, so do folks tempers.
On one fine Spring day while rushing home, I was tempted to grab a quick McNugget deal from the golden arches. From a distance, I noticed some hostile activity. But when you live in the Stuy, that's par for the course homey. I paid it no mind and went inside to order, followed by one of the combatants (some drunk Russian wankster and his bald comrade). They came back in to grab their order and left out to be greet by BLAMMO! An ice cold beverage across the face....still in the glass bottle! Dem's fight words where I come from, and I'm guessing in Russia too. So now it's round two for "the Drunken Russian" v.s. "Begging Billy". Although "Begging B." had the height advantage I'm guessing "the D.R." sobered up after that ice tea smack, cause he took "Billy" to the floor. What a scene folks! After "B.B" was helped up off the floor he had the nerve to ask for change!?! Change!?! You ain't Obama brother! Change yo LIFE!

"The McNority Report"-As Good As Golden

The great "Golden Arches" sent me an e-mail in hopes that I would remind "you people" that the 6-piece McNugget deal for a dollar (plus tax) is official DONE! As of 12:00am Monday morning March 31st (today people), you will be back to having two nuggets less, with the usual 4-piece dollar deal. They're figuring that being that this IS "the Minority Report", that this would be the best way to get the word out to folks. So please do us all a favor and remember. Instead of standing in line for a half hr. holding up the line, only to reach the counter to ask "Yo, is that 6-piece deal still going on?" "NO negro! Just buy two 4's... Next!"
