There’s just so much interesting stuff at Brooklynometry I think you just need to go over there to read the following:

Blank keys: "This is not exactly a Key Party at Brooklyn Hardware Supply. The maiden
keys you see in the window are on extra good behavior like orphans
hoping to secure surveying parents, waiting for the grinder’s peaks and
valleys to make them unique, wondering what locks they’ll lock and what
cylinders they’ll roll."

Prospect Park acorns: "It’s a relief to have proof that at least some of our Brooklyn oaks
have produced abundant acorns this season after what I’ve been hearing
about the conditions in Arlington, Va (my home town) and other areas, where there’s some really hungry squirrels."

Chekhov at Lefferts House:  "On December 11, 12, 13, 18, 19, 21, the Rebellious Subjects Theatre in collaboration with Lefferts Historic
House & the Prospect Park Alliance presents an unexpected
production of Anton Chekhov’s Three Sisters. Erin Gilmore directs Paul
Schmidt’s distinctly American translation, infusing both the play and
the house with the zeitgeist of the American 1950s."
