Benvenuti a Brooklyn

For Marina, the Italian tourist I met riding the R who was looking for “the best part of Brooklyn…the part where people break dance in the street”.

I know the best part of Brooklyn for bodegas without cat hair, the best part for beaches without broken glass, and for stoop sales without crazy old women (there are only two). As for public break dancing…I had to send her back to Times Square where the Michael Jacksons (big and small) put on an underground show.

This guy’s from the UK, but if he ever came here, he’d have to deal with Ozone…
