Mario's In The Backseat With the Paper Towels


Riverhead Raceway

Finally found the frozen Native American Giant that USED TO guard Zaghaven's
Western Boundary.
I don't blame him for quitting, we were paying him peanuts.

Zaghaven Hedge

I think the front one is Elephant.

Yoshi.

Venusian STYLE

Sixth Borough HAIR style is actually more of a HAT style.

Our Old Deli

Popped up in Cold Springs

Ghostbuster Sighting

Watch Out Sudsy!

Not everyone in Zaghaven likes having a ghost around.
(Actually NO ONE in Zaghaven likes having a ghost around.  You feel me?)

Crack in the Drop

A Clue!  The Frankie's Apartment Crew love a good clue!  We just don't know what to do with them.

Boat Restaurant on Northern Blvd!








Happy Anniversary to My Favorite Wife

Sixth Borough ZAP ATTACK

1970: KFC sent these Cupola roofs out to all their franchise affiliates, weathervane and all.
By 1990, all of these types of buildings were gone.  Except for the KFC in Zaghaven.
Then, one day, that disappeared as well.  Found it the other day in Northport, LI.
They might try to pretend that it's a Happy Wok but they're still frying chicken all the same.

SEARCH FOR THE SIXTH: Impossible To Judge

We collect the junk that's gonna "BRING US BACK" to the Sixth Borough.
Or, to "Bring the Sixth Borough Back".  Whichever.
I don't know about this skateboard I found in my grandmother's attic.
My grandmother can be a really crazy bitch.  She has price-tags on all the stuff up there.  In her
closet too.  She even has a price tag on my old bicycle in the basement.  Hey, it might be a
Redline, but 700 dollars?  I asked her what my cut would be if she ever found a maniac
dumb enough to buy it and she just shoved a Stella D'oro in my mouth.
Anyway, at 45 dollars, this ugly-ass no-name brand dragon-board is definitely NOT Sixth Borough.
I only bought it because it might be.  And it is kinda fly, though.


PINBACK: Pre-Watchmen Smiley-Face

I used to think these were corny, then I didn't, then I did again.
Suffice it to say, it's probably the #1 most iconic Pinback.
The Pinback with the most ICON status.

Blue Kills Park: Enter At Your Own Risk

At the fringes of Zaghaven is the elusive Blue Kills Park.  Blue Kills is amorphous and wobbly.
It is both an enchanted forest and an imaginary cesspool.  It changes, it swallows things up, and
it spits other things out.  Whole neighborhoods have disappeared into the Kills, to be
transmogrified, reimagined, and possibly bootlegged in some other part of the universe.  
There are lots of ways into the park.
Don't bother trying to remember how you got in.
It will never be the same on the way out.

Blue Kills: Revolving Platform

You have to watch out for those darn Revolving Platforms in Blue Kills.
Tree Roots come up out of the ground, grab you by the ankles, and the ground starts spinning.
