And they call it...
Puppy love on 13th Street near First Avenue. Well, he or she is more of a dog. But that doesn't really seem as endearing.
When dogs poop near diners outside Zum Schneider
Yesterday afternoon, the folks here on Seventh Street outside Zum Schneider were enjoying some food and drinks...
...when along came a young woman with a fairly large dog, who proceded to befoul the sidewalk right near the tables... without as much as slowing down, the woman continued on her way, turning south on Avenue C... the diners at the table on the far left above were fairly horrified/angry... one yelled something like, "Hey, your dog just took a dump. You have to clean that up."
I cannot say whether the woman was simply lazy or poorly mannered... or if this was an act of aggression toward touristy people eating outdoors...
P.S.
I did not photograph any of the evidence or the dog owner in question. You'll have to trust me on this one.

Fight night
First, a reader passes along word of "a ferocious fight at 4 am outside of st. dymphna's" on St. Mark's Place... Anyone hear anything about this?
Meanwhile, in another fight last night... from the Daily News:

Rosario Dawson's mom wants to return to 13th Street
From Page Six today:
The mother of "Sin City" actress Rosario Dawson is trying to move back into the East 13th Street tenement she turned into a "squat" 25 years ago -- but the tenants don't want her as a neighbor.
Isabel Dawson moved out of the building two years ago, having feuded with the other occupants of the "squat." Rosario's father, Greg Dawson, who is separated from Isabel, still lives in the tenement along with her handicapped uncle.
Isabel -- who broke into the abandoned tenement with Greg when they were both 21 (and Rosario was 6) and installed plumbing and electrical wiring -- feels she's entitled to move back in, despite all the bitterness from past squabbles. Residents say they are scared.
And what's with the "quotation marks" around "squat?"

Pretzel logic
So... you remember that little controversy about the pretzel-ad campaign....like the one seen here on First Avenue and First Street...
NYC the Blog had been in touch with the pretzel people who said...
"Based on the feedback received from you and other bloggers, we will be taking the ‘You can never be too thin’ ads down."
The company has also apologized.
So they replaced the ad. And what did they replace it with?
Um.
Thanks to EV Grieve reader K. Knipfing for the photos.
