How much does it cost to get into Coney Island ? Is there a general admission to get into the park or do they charge per ride or something ? How late is the park open on 7/25 or 7/26 ( a Tue & Wed )

Here are the lyrics to The Arsonists’ “Underground Vandal.” How many names (rappers, rap groups, graf writers, graffiti crews, DJs, producers, record labels, etc.) can you identify within the lyrics?

Some of the spellings of the references are not exact.
There are over 65 names within the lyrics.
See how many you can identify:

“See there’s one hundred and eighty seven reasons why to be a necrophiliac,
I’m in a cage where only non fiction could see me at,
thirstin’ to howl within the third hour of the night,
ducking vandal squads, sprayin’ hard & avoidin’ the search lite,
using the shades of Brooklyn,
to cloak from blue & white problems,
switch tips on krylons,
meanwhile I fondle ‘em, the click-clack’s, the knick knack,
finish the piece, step back,
mad skills, hispanic, urban thermodynamic, pitch black,
here comes the boys in blue, ’cause of mass influence,
they have intents to harm me,
they’re coming at me wit’ a killer army,
I’m pf cutting corners like tron, it’s on the go,
you know how my company flow to XL like chino,
I dipped through kalodge projects to the house of reps,
where n*ggaz like “‘ey L got skills,”
absolutely!
cops didn’t try to shoot me & I lost em,
but when they get back to the precinct, believe me,
it’s gonna cost em,
but I don’t give a f*ck like slim shady,
godfather don of organized confusion, hi tek,
with my illusion in this subculture,
I dwell amongst the sharks and vultures,
you don’t know the sciences of life’s trife,
the streets’ll coach ya,”

“caught in the middle of breakin’ & being mister live at block parties,
status of mister man,
I have a change of plans,
sprayin’ elements of style, so graffiti is survivin’,
TC5, TCK, NBK… y’all keep it live, sky’s the limit,
either that or nose dive,
it takes practice to make your J live,
so I shoot to swish in this business,
making records from the heart and soul,
when it’s crunch time,
all it’s gonna boil down to, are my words worth the punchline,
the gifted one,
like a gemini,
double trouble, triple metaphors,
I’m mister complex,
and always rock steady in my context,
I X men,
til they’re invisible,
like them scratch masters, supernatural,
resource disaster, black star in Bushwick,
I’m known to mop tops with natural elements,
the juggernaut that can’t be stopped,
last emperor from Socrates to Toynbee,
makin’ no dead presidents,
but don’t know label own me!
my cartel consists of shabbazz and beat nuts,
crash dummies & fifth platoon supplying the killer cuts,
I’m in a room with MF Doom,
doctor octagon & killer priest,
they’ll all have you underground,
restin’ in peace.”

Hey everyone,
I just recently got into the R/C Hobby again and i was wondering if there are any good hobby shops around the Brooklyn Bay Ridge area. I already searched in google/google maps but nothing good really came up. There used to be a good hobby shop just half a mile out from my house but it went out of business. Thanks

Hi Everyone!

My husband, 16 month old son, and I are thinking about moving to Brooklyn because my husband got offered a job there. We are looking to find a safe area to raise our son, and possibly another child in the near future. What area would you recommend living at?

We have done research on some areas like Park Slope, but Park Slope is out of our price range. We are hoping to spend about $1500 for a two bedroom. What are you thoughts about Sunset, Bay Ridge, Prospect Park,… or any other area you think will may be suitable for us?

Thank you!
