April 21

Just the other day, EV Grieve reader Riian submitted a fine entry ... However, some of you vicious bastards people weren't impressed since the thing was in a pot.

So, Riian strikes again on Sixth Street between Avenue A and Avenue B...


This should certainly please the judges, though as a neutral observer, I cannot speak for the International Coalition of Tree Tossing in the Spring (ICTTS). Via text, ICTTS spokesperson Gruber MacDougal, currently in London preparing for the royal wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton, wrote, "Hi Grieve. TY 4t note. We'll ck out this Ntry. meanwyl, mrry xmas in April."

    Mine was bigger. And greener. And discovered just 10 days ago. So, between Riian's, Slum Goddess's and mine, who's the winner? I mean, what are the rules anyway?

    I applaud Riian's potless effort (he should've submitted the potted one on 4/20), however I've heard a nasty rumor about Brooklyn being blacklisted by the ICTTS. Is this true? And how fitting that that son of a bitch, Gruber MacDougal has his panties in a bunch over William and Kate's wedding. Is he also a correspondent for In Touch magazine? Everything is starting to make sense now. But not really.

    I hear you and understand your feelings, frustrations, etc. Unfortunately, we're dealing with an international consortium that is as transparent as the Kremlin.

    So let's not get into crisis mode just yet. We've been here before. Remember the ICTTS crisis in 1979, which eventually lead to the signing of the SALT II nuclear arms reduction treaty?

    Right. Anyway, this will all get sorted out. I'm afraid we have a long way to go. Goggla has just submitted photographic evidence that may blow this whole thing out of the proverbial water.
