red hook was developed by the dutch in the middle 1600's, the clay was red which was great for english tennis courts and if you boated down river from queens and passed under the brooklyn bridge you would see that that part of brooklyn juts outward like a hook, almost pointing to wall street, so therefore, redhook, and if you saw the waters edge you would see redish clay and the land jutting back upward. it is an area that went downhill in the 50's, became a sewer of sick humanity in the 60's, and mayors like beane, stinkin dinkins, others, never gave a dam for until guiliano came along.

nice cranes! the title of this post also got the similarly-titled TMBG song stuck in my head... ha.

Geek detector! Now I know yer a geek!
That song was indeed the inspiration for this post. Its been in my head for 15 years now, so I thought I'd pass it along!

this was taken last august 8, 2008 at the teachers' conference center during our staff workshop and teambuilding. i particularly love sunsets, and this caught my attention when i walked inside the dorm room.
