If you woke up this morning with your loved one thinking it best that you not go into work today and instead just stay home, it was probably best to have listened to them.
You don’t want to end up like Julius Caesar, going to work only to be stabbed to death.
Thanks to the weather and decomposition, Mackay Place, a one way street in Bay Ridge, has become a two way death trap at the corner of Narrows Avenue.
It’s almost as if Mother Nature wants it to be a death trap!
We’ve been hearing a rumor via the Facebook status updates from several well known stand up comics (Eddie Brill & Barry Sobel) that Ken Ober has passed away. Ober of course was the host of the now infamous late 80s MTV game show ‘Remote Control.’

We loved watching it. Twinkies from the sky, arm chair recliners through the wall and music videos!
If Ken Ober has in fact passed, this would be a clear cut sign that Ed McMahon needed his services and ‘Remote Control’ is now back up and running in the afterlife.
The internet is blank as to whether or not this rumor is true and we’re currently awaiting word from Ober’s reps that this is all some Facebook hacking and will hopefully have an interview with Ober himself to talk about his — hopefully.
11:52AM Good News Update!!! According to AmericanSuperstarmag.com Ken Ober is alive and well. This ‘Ken Ober Dead’ thing was apparently just a rumor.
3:06PM Terrible News Update!!! Confirmed via his agent the untimely passing of Ken Ober.
“I am sad to report that the rumors are true. I have no details, just confirmation from his managers that Ken passed away this weekend.”
Ed McMahon needed him. RIP Ken.
The crankiest former super has been up to some to dangerous activity today — he’s working the polls and trying to start a rebellion. We saw him working the polls this morning at P.S. 185 on Ridge Blvd. and 86th Street (he’ll probably be there until 9PM tonight) and since then we spotted several signs that appear to be his work taped up along 3rd Avenue.
Yes, the man who doesn’t pick his dog poop up and who locked all of the full garbage cans inside of the building that he lives in to spite his fellow tenants works the polls each year to help keep democracy going — but that’s not the juicy part, this is…
To quote the poor penmanship sans caps:
“I urge all New Yorkers not to vote for Bloomberg on 11-3-09, he raised sales tax 2x last 4yrs, closed fire houses, raised your cigarette prices, trash cans not getting picked up but 1x a day & none on wkends. rent stabilized apts. getting hit hard every yr. with high rent increases, because of his puppets, new ball parks built for Mets & Yanks & Ground Zero is still Ground Zero. He runs a very corrupt police dept. Ray Kelly belongs in a jail cell next to Bernie Kerik. His cops are a bunch of drunks killing people, he did nothing to stop MTA from raising fares in 8 yrs. If Yanks win World Series, he probably will have a parade. Remember, the city is very broke. Keep this in mind on Tues. 11-3-09 Kill the Motherf*cker”
Now, some of you might be asking if we saw the Crazy Super Signs author writing these signs or hanging them up. To that, we must answer an astounding NO.
That said, we do have a rather extensive library of his handwritten ramblings that go back over two plus years and have read his work extensively for years prior to that. Using those as a frame of reference, it would appear as though this ’Kill the m-f’er’ sign was done by him.
Don’t think that there was only one of these signs taped up. Here’s another sign that lacks the ‘Kill the m-f’er.’ We find this lack of conviction of the part of the author to be quite purplexing. All of the signs that we saw today appeared to be photocopies, this means that he ran off a few, then realized that he forgot one last detail and ran off several more. Go figure.
We know of three others that were torn down throughout the day.
Happy Election Day!!!
