Where to get laid & loved

This week Brooklyn Based asked their friends where they find romance (or random hookups) in Brooklyn.  We don't mean to boast, but our Development Director Mindy Koopmans clearly knows best.  Who knows, maybe we'll start a 3rd Ward Love Column: Dear Mindy.

Click here to read tips from her and some other experts on how to find a honey.

Also, this goes with out saying (which is why it wasn't said) but 3rd Ward events are swarming with hotties.  And single ladies, if you haven't been to our woodshop, we reccomend stopping by.

Vote (again) September 29!

Why should you vote on Tuesday? Check out this video to find out.


So here’s the deal: there will be a runoff election on September 29, and all of us civic-minded freelancers need to band together to help elect David Yassky for Comptroller, a true advocate for our issues. The office carries a lot of weight when it comes to eliminating unfair taxes and collecting unpaid wages, and fortunately for our pocketbooks, Yassky is solidly in our corner on both fronts.

There’s less than one week left to bring him to victory, so pass this video on to any Dems you know in NYC, and if you can spare a few hours of your time, sign up now to volunteer.
