Stop Walking!

So...Tiffany and I are taking a stroll in Williamsburg, Brooklyn the other night when we come across this traffic signal on Montrose Avenue.

My friend, Rich, doesn't see the problem. In fact, he insists it signifies "stop walking", which is an oddly practical explanation. Yet I still find this potentially dangerous. Therefore, my question remains: What if you're a fervent optimist?

Jewelry Exchange

Being that I'm near-sighted and refuse to wear corrective lenses or contacts, you can imagine my shock when I saw this sign for Jewelry Exchange in Coney Island, Brooklyn from two blocks down.



Sidebar: It was gloomy all day today, but it didn't rain and neither did I need a hoodie. Progress.
