Not surprisingly the New York Daily News has an article in today’s paper about Richard Martin - author of the famed Crazy Super Signs

The article discusses what I have previously reported; in that Martin is fighting dirty now, literally.  He’s posted notices that he was punishing his tenants by not taking out the garbage cans for collection - leaving rotting garbage to stink up the lobby and staircase - and he’s actually been following through with his threat - he opted out of garbage collection on Monday. 

But, I guess this recent visit from the Daily News concerning his activity, or lack thereof,  scared Martin, because as I walked past the building last night I spotted the curb lined with all sorts of neatly placed cans.  I’ve never seen his garbage placed out so neat - but then again, it may have been a two glasses of wine seeing the garbage placed ever so neat.

Besides Martin’s garbage, and punishment techniques, the NY Daily News has opened a can of worms with this photo…

It’s of Martin standing in front of his door holding a bottle of Tide with Bleach Alternate, glove-less.  For years he’s only been seen in public wearing at least one glove,  which when asked about, he would make mention about Michael Jackson doing it…anyways, the point here is, I can’t tell if Martin’s wearing his teeth in this photo.

At first sight of the photo, I said to myself, “At least he has his teeth in his mouth”, but upon a second look it appeared to me that Martin was photographed yet again, sans teeth.

I’m really not sure what’s going on with his teeth situation here, so let’s take a better look based on two photographs printed last month in the NY Daily News…

Martin apparently with teeth…

Martin apparently sans teeth (looking oddly and creepy)…

Teeth or no teeth???

In either case, thankfully he’s wearing a thinner coat, so you can see his ever so slightly bulging chest (by way of apparent stuffed bra). 

So what’s the consensus?  Teeth, or no teeth???
