By Bwog Staff on Dec 19, 2009 13 Comments

First, there are several groups planning snowball fights tonight and tomorrow morning. One group’s taken to Facebook; feel free to add your own scheduled fights in the comments. A foot of snow doesn’t come around here every year. Second, if you are the owner of a motorcycle parked on 114th Street, it’s been towed. Seems […]

Netflix: A Dash of Holiday Cheer

By Bwog Staff on Dec 19, 2009 4 Comments

Storm’s blowing in, finals are blowing over, and Bwog movie maven Mark Hay has a few cinematic choices to accompany these first flakes of snow. Something about the vintage and the slightly outdated social norms of these films make them an endearing accompaniment to any night of cocoa and candy canes. Christmas in Connecticut (1945) […]

Might Be Time To Break Out Your Rock Salt

By Bwog Staff on Dec 18, 2009 20 Comments

Well, Bwog’s crack meteorology team has spent most of the day keeping an eye on the multiple forecasts pouring out of the National Weather Service, Accuweather, and Weather Underground computer models, and they report that the predicted amounts of snowfall keep climbing. What was a 1 to […]

Postcrypt Coffeehouse Faces The War on Fun

By Bwog Staff on Dec 18, 2009 59 Comments

Since its founding in 1964 by then-assistant chaplain Rev. John Cannon, Postcrypt Coffeehouse has remained “among a handful of really well run college venues of its kind.” Popular within the folk community both for the ridiculously cool space in St. Paul’s basement, and the dedicated crowds, the coffeehouse has hosted well-known artists such as Jeff […]

By Bwog Staff on Dec 18, 2009 2 Comments

JTS held a screening and panel discussion of “Inglourious Basterds” yesterday. Sample quote: “Wow, that was fun…I’m not supposed to feel that way, I know — I’m Jewish.” (Times) Three family members were killed by a career criminal in an Upper West Side apartment; the attacker then fell to his death while trying to escape.

Not-So-Spontaneous Dancing!

By Bwog Staff on Dec 17, 2009 22 Comments

Multiple reports from the 209 front tell Bwog that about 10-30 people just entered 209 and played “YMCA.” A spate of vicious dancing ensued. Points to the merry pranksters for getting people to play along, with only a few points subtracted for being decked out in what several tipsters called “80s gear” and spandex. Unfortunately, […]

SocketHop: Crafting a Bigger Brother

By Bwog Staff on Dec 17, 2009 4 Comments

A proposed secret international treaty would greatly heighten penalties for copyright infringement, some threatening civil liberties. SocketHop, the technology decoder for the literature-minded, takes a look. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when it was announced one year ago that the music industry would stop its broad lawsuits against alleged file sharers. Since about 2003, […]
