MUGGING AT CARL SCHURZ PARK TODAY!!!

Ladies, please be careful. There was a mugging at the Carl Schurz Park in broad daylight. It occur ed just off the boardwalk by the Mayor's Mansion this afternoon. Please be safe and take a buddy with you when you enjoy this magical place and bring your cell phones. The problem is that when you get mugged in a Park it can be very difficult for the police to locate you so be aware of the street crossings when you're out and about.
Also, watch your back and be aware of your surroundings. If you see someone suspicious just turn and walk the other way. And please turn down your I Pod's so you can hear what's going on around you.

Blessings, Ms. ObsHERvation

When in Doubt get off your A** and Merry Xmas

Whenever I feel like my life is in the dumps, when I bitch and complain about what I should have, where my career should be, the time I've missed , the chances I've lost ,I turn to my church.

Not only do I find God here but I find the best Homeless feeling program in NYC. It takes place at the Church of the Epiphany on 74th and York and is run by Jeanette Gautier- who feeds over a hundred people ever Wednesday of the week, ran or shine, sleet or hail. Hat's off to Jeanette!
This Xmas Eve Peter and I volunteered to help. Not only is the food top quality but we've even got a Zagat's rating. See our very pregnant Priest Jennifer Linman in a group shot to the right and Deacon Horace White below saying the Lord's prayer.
Merry Xmas to all.

NO Movie Night at the Carl Schurz Park



Sadly, there was NO movie night at the Carl Schurz Park (my favorite park in the universe).


We enjoyed an entire August of watching movies like 'Ghostbusters", "It could happen to you? and another really old film I saw with Tony Curtis about a publicity hound in NYC with a sister fetish. The powers of the Park rented a huge screen, put out seats with free fresh hot popcorn and suddenly what was an ordinary basket-ball court was transformed into an old fashioned drive in- minus the cars. It was one of the most romantic nights Peter (husband)and I spent together this summer. But, tonight, because of the rain there was no movie.

Instead, I headed over to Logos Bookstore on York between 83rd street and 84th street. Logos, is one of the last independent bookstores left on the continent. It's woody, and warm full of great books carefully selected with love. And everywhere you look there's a delight for the eye. From unique gift cards, to indi music, imported Japanese incense, Children's books to Torah's- Logos has things that matter. I love here because it's manageable not like those mega stores where I tend to get lost.

At Logos, I can sit, I can read, I can escape and Logos offers a unique surprise. Hidden in the back far from the view from street is a garden full of all kinds of floras and faunas that make me feel like I'm in a jungle. Who needs the Botanical Gardens? Logos, a literary oasis smack down in New York City. What more could I want? On a rainy day it doesn't get better than this after the rainy day sex, of course.

Ms. Obs HER Vation.....signing off.
