1,000 Visitors and Counting...

In a little "toot our own horns" post, BoogieDowner would like to report that we officially hit the 1,000 visitor mark today according to our nifty Sitemeter - hooray! Yeah, that's right Brownstoner with your fancy "non-Blogspot website" and legions of readers - BoogieDowner had 1,000 visitors. You must be shaking in your crocs!

Now granted, about 750 of those visitors were probably just me logging on to see if we've had any new comments... But, nonetheless, it's a happy occasion for this three week old blog!

Thanks to all you loyal readers who have been checking us out. The site is only as good as the people who read it and contribute by way of comments, post ideas, and photos. So keep 'em coming to boogiedowner@gmail.com.

Scientific Evidence that SoBro is the Hotness

As further evidence that the South Bronx is the hippest thing to hit NYC since the "stay-cation" and the hideous rubber "Crocs" sandal/shoe hybrid, Osiris, the maker of the Bronx sneaker, has now come out with a South Bronx version, which features bolder colors and slightly lowered high-top for men and women. The sneaker is a top seller among skaters, however it is now a top seller among the trend-setters for the fall season, and we can see why!

Here's a quote from a local Osiris South Bronx sneaker aficionado: "When you're in da greatest city in da world, you gotta rock da blocks wearin' da Osiris South Bronx Skate Shoe. Why, you ask? Cuz one, dese hi-tops keep your ankles covered and your fashion fresh, while the comfortable cupsole grabs your deck like a mugger grabbin' your wallet. And two, if Uncle Vinny sees you wearin' anything else, he'll send Rodrigo over to bust your freakin' knee caps!"

We couldn't agree more.
