Pinky Problems in Hoboken

Pinky the Ghost already ruined in Hoboken, NJ

Pinky’s run in Hoboken quickly hit the skids – as residents reported it was already trashed with graffiti – and now it’s pretty much ripping off.

Man – if it’s not destroying beautiful flowers, it’s ruining some creative artwork. You can’t just have something stay nice for long in this town.

President Obama Punching Bag

Greetings from Hoboken sells Obama Punching Bag

Hoboken411 reader Kenny noticed a particular item in the window of the card shop Greetings from Hoboken this past weekend, and took offense.

“The store next to Louise & Jerry’s has an inflatable punching bag of President Obama in the window. Whether you like the President or not, that is beyond offensive.”

Do you find it offensive?

Sybil’s Cave has a use finally: Geese-pad

Hoboken411 reader Dory sent in this shot of a Mom goose and her baby geese milling around near Sybil’s Cave.

According to Hoboken Police, they’re now disrupting traffic near the Castle Point skate park – putting themselves in harm’s way. Animal control was contacted to rectify the situation. Hopefully these little geese will be able to happily celebrate Mother’s Day this weekend!

Do you look up in Hoboken?

Gorgeous Hoboken sights to see – if you care to look

Local photographer Nina Wolfe sent in this sweet sunset shot of some Hoboken row houses.

Her caption was great: “Sometimes, we forget to look up.”

I liken this to smart phone obsession – but it could be some other things as well.

Check out more of her great shots on her website: www.ninawolfe.com

Scooby Van impostor remains!

Scooby Van stays put for over one month in Hoboken!

5/7/2012 Update:

Hoboken411 reader Tom has an update about the enigma called the Hoboken Scooby Van:

“Since your update on April 5th, the creepy van still hasn’t moved. I live across the street from where it’s been parked and I’ve counted at least 6 or 7 tickets that it’s gotten since it’s been sitting here. Right now it has 3 tickets and a notice from the HPU that the permit is expired and is subject to being booted and towed. The HPU notice has been on there for over a week and nothing has happened, probably because it would fall apart if they tried to move it out of there.

Quite the contrary to when my car was booted one day after my permit expired. Gotta love the HPU…”
