Episode 1 of a series, in which Bwog’s Poultry Pundit David Hu infiltrates the delis of Morningside Heights in search of the perfect Thanksgiving sandwich. Meal One: Thursday, November 19, 2009. 8:16pm “Turkey Shoot” from Westside Market As I sit here staring at the culinary delight in front of me, I am excited for two […]

How to deal with newspaper-related beefs: Take your paper’s website hostage? Or hang up a giant piece of “art” that depicts a rival editor, naked, with a twenty-foot penis on the side of your building? Is that even a question? (TheLocal) NYU kids find their own James Franco to stalk; lack the subtlety and finesse […]

A Bwog tipster stepped out onto the doorstep of River this morning to find this rather damaged copy of a Damages shooting script nestled among some dead leaves. Welcome to New York, where even our litter is kind of glamorous.

Bwog sat down with the latest Columbian to make the rest of his class look bad. All-Amur’can Raphael Graybill (CC ’10) of Great Falls, Montana has recently been awarded the 2010 Marshall Scholarship. Each year, the prestigious award is granted to up to 40 American students of “high ability” to pursue graduate studies in the […]

Every play ever produced has been showing this weekend and last.  Bwog’s Anish Bramhandkar checks out the latest offering from the CU Players, Dirty Hands. There’s no way around it.  Dirty Hands, Jean-Paul Sartre’s post-war political drama, is very long.  At the end of the two-and-a-half hour play, you’ve enjoyed yourself but find yourself wishing […]

Damages, the acclaimed FX drama, will be squatting on Broadway between 113th and 114th (give or take) until around 10pm this evening.  Liz Naiden, Chief of all things “Revered and Reviled,” managed to sneak a glimpse of the production trailers, and found labels including “The Clown Room” and “Future Boss Players.”  Plot guesses, anyone?

Break out the cheap wine and hors d’oeuvres: there’s an art installation on your Metrocard. (NY Times) Mayor Bloomberg makes a $125 million impulse buy. (NY Daily News) Hipsters are arrested in Williamsburg for their overzealous labeling (and drug possession).

If you happened to take your eyes off your iPhone as you were trotting down College Walk this evening, you may have noticed an ominous orange glow emanating from Low: Fear not — Low has not become a factory for Fear and Strange Smoke (at least, not any more than usual).  It’s the annual Alexander […]

Make the most of your time in the city before heading home for some family time and too much stuffing. Friday 28 Hours of Innovative Art – marathon of performers, featuring musicians and dancers, hosted by Arts for Art Clemente Solo Velez Cultural Center, 107 Suffolk St, between Rivington and Delancy 6 pm – midnight […]

A fascinating, if one-sided, account of Columbia’s labor relations. You want to change the popular image of fraternities, you say?  Bwog suggests you stop the 3:00 AM screamfests. Fusion for fusion’s sake is sacrilege. Yes, people are still making mixtapes.  On CD’s. Even art students can study abroad.  But be warned: the Mona Lisa is […]

Overheard on a Schapiro Elevator: Two women step inside and press the button labeled “PH.” Woman A: “What do you think PH stands for?” Woman B: “I don’t know. [Ph]aculty House?” Woman A: “Oh yeah.”
