GoodNews/BadNews: Mice and Machetes


Trinitarios de Los Sures


The Good: Specklebutt seems to have taken care of the mouse situation at DCQhq

The Bad: The gangs have apparently emerged from their slumber for the warm-weather machete-attack season

The Badder: Some of them are spicing things up by slathering poison on their sharpened machete tips. You know, for max sliceage points. And the ones that weren't before will be once they meander past La Dolce Musto in this past week's Village Voice

The Who Knew!?: The hood used to be much, much worse

The OK: The attacks seem to revolve around the southern edge of the Bedford Ave. gentrification corridor, where randomly chosen victims are more likely to be trust-fund hipster kids than, say, I dunno, me. That said, Sazon Perez pernil expeditions may henceforth be restricted to daylight hours. 

The Doubly Related: A member of the DCQ family once obtained a rusty machete while vacationing as a child in the Yucatán. Said homeboy tried to carry it on to the plane. Inspection failed. A classic customs blunder.
