The Q at Parkside

(for those for whom the Parkside Q is their hometrain)

News and Nonsense from the Brooklyn neighborhood of Lefferts and environs, or more specifically a neighborhood once known as Melrose Park. Sometimes called Lefferts Gardens. Or Prospect-Lefferts Gardens. Or PLG. Or North Flatbush. Or Caledonia (west of Ocean). Or West Pigtown. Across From Park Slope. Under Crown Heights. Near Drummer's Grove. The Side of the Park With the McDonalds. Jackie Robinson Town. Home of Lefferts Manor. West Wingate. Near Kings County Hospital. Or if you're coming from the airport in taxi, maybe just Flatbush is best.

Caledonia Lives!

I was beginning to feel like Paula from that classic movie Gas Light. Newcomers to the neighborhood think I'm nuts for referring to us as Caledonia. But no, Gregory, I'm NOT crazy. Get a load of this:
The "official" street map as you come out of the Q at Parkside station clearly shows a hospital called Caledonia nary three blocks west. Granted, the same map tells of a mysterious "D" train stopping within, and for lovers of talkies there's an RKO movie theater right off the Church Avenue stop. I'm also fond of the way the B16 loop-de-loops round Parkside and St. Paul's Place. They don't even mention the playground at the Parade Grounds. And I'm pretty sure that giant red circle graffiti has been removed. I wonder how many items must become anachronistic for the MTA to redraw the map?

In the meantime, big sale down at the Pioneer. Must be part of their ongoing Anniversary celebration.

HOW I CURE MY CANCER....... my wife has been suffering from thyroid cancer which was confirmed to be stage four, the doctor told me there was little he could do since she wasn’t responding to treatment but a friend of mine came to our rescue by ordering this cannabis oil from Kabaka which she said has been helping some patient fight against cancer of various types so we decided to give it a chance, so far my wife is improving perfectly very well and presently she can walk around the house all by herself. I felt its necessary i let others who are suffering from this acute disease that once you have a good cannabis oil it can really give one a sound second chance of living. by chance if you happen to be in need of this cannabis oil you can contact Kabaka who supplied I and my wife with this email: kabakatemple@outlook.com add him on whatapp +2348114801221
