Bwog was curious about the large-ish metal movie trailers currently outside the Starbucks on Broadway. We spotted a man who appeared to be fixing a faulty hinge on a door to the trailer.

Tipster Jenny Lam has good news for fans of Freaks and Geeks and Spider-Man: “Stalkers, plan accordingly: I was at the Whitney Museum administrative offices for an internship interview this afternoon.

There are various trailers lined up along Claremont avenue and a movie set on 118th and Riverside. When Bwog went digging, we learned that it was for a movie called Push starring Star Jones, Monique, and Paula Patton (?).

A Royal Visit

An astute correspondent who somehow remains pitifully trapped in Butler piqued Bwog’s curiosity with this observation: “Her Highness Sheikha Moza, aka the First Lady of Qatar, just took a tour through Butler. This is interesting because she is famous for spending billions to get American colleges to build satellite campuses in Qatar (check out Cornell’s campus […]
