Steve Brodie became famous in 1886 as the first person to survive a jump off the Brooklyn Bridge, but it's far from clear that he ever actually jumped. Many believed he had someone throw a dummy off the bridge while he swam out toward the spot where it landed, surfacing near a boat that pulled him out of the water. Whether or not he really did the deed, he took full advantage of the celebrity that came his way as a result, opening a successful bar that traded on his reputation and starring in a play that climaxed with him leaping off the bridge to save a girl's life. And his name lived on long after he did. In 1949, almost half a century after his passing, he was the subject of a Bugs Bunny cartoon. Watch it here!
(Curiously, an 1886 NY Times account of his supposed feat described him, without any further elaboration, as a "long-distance pedestrian".)
UPDATE: As the Fensk pointed out, his wife's name was, quite appropriately, Bridget!

When I made made a casual comment about the ugly tissue in the pocket
I was punish-forced to eat it, she was so strong I couldn't stop it
Handling me with such ease, like I was nothing but her rag doll
She twist-bent my arm like a string of soft luke-warm spag-bol
In meek terror she might twist it off right out of its socket
I allowed her to feed me the snot rag from right out of her pocket
And I chewed and I gagged and I chewed and I sobbed and I chewed to stop worse pain from following
Shred after shred after lump after lump I forced every bit down painful swallowing
And when I opened and "Aahed" to show my pink dry tongue to prove I'd got it all down
She was enough satisfied to let go of my arm but still punched me in rage to the ground
She said "We were here first, it's the front and it's our queue
So get to the back I'm in no mood to argue
Not with me, look at you, such a weak fart, you
One single punch I could probably spark you
Damage your face and quite lastingly mark you
Flat on your back on this dirty floor park you
Waking up later and still in the dark, two
Swollen black eyes and a pain in your brain!"

I can't begin to tell you how devastating it was to take a walk around the corner from my new office and see the tree where I first began documenting the Green Heron nest lying on the ground. If I had known of this I can honestly say I would have done everything in my power to stop this! Posted below are some of the shots I had the opportunity to take over the last few years. At least this isn't the spot I have been documenting this year!
About a month ago my other favorite tree that was a spot for the neighborhood Hooded Orioles, hummingbirds, mockingbirds, sparrows, and others was chopped down to make way for a bigger house on the lot.

We had a brilliant night on Prince's Avenue at the Beat The Clock event.
Beat The Clock is a semi-regular night with 70s and 80s, electronic and disco music all played from vinyl. We've been to a few of their nights and it's always a good do.
Early part of the evening in Hoi before heading upstairs to the event.
This time there were quite a few of us! Myself, Charlotte, Trisha, Chloe, Connor, Jo and James were all there at points during the night.
I danced loads and had a brilliant time!
In Hoi at the start of the evening.

Comments Please...This photo was taken before a local high school football game, outside the music room. The trumpet player was in charge of keeping an eye on the two younger brothers. I didn't know that when the photo was taken, only after observing the three at the game. Notice the shoeless performer. After he got positioned, he said to me, "Take my picture."
Please make comments!
