After living in Prospect Heights more than a year, I thought I was pretty familiar with the neighborhood. Then one day I was mystified to spot a trio of monks strolling down Sterling; two elderly and one young, clad in brilliant red robes. I Google-obsessed over it for the next couple weeks until I finally hit upon the combination of words that found the Burmese Universal Peace Buddha Temple of New York. Since then I've spotted the monks a few times, wandering among the brownstones and more commercial areas of the neighborhood.

I don't know if the monks live here full-time (and I just never saw them before) or if they are on a long-term visit this summer. Until I get a chance to visit the temple (unmarked from the outside), I enjoy imagining them meditating in Prospect Park, rifling through books in the Brooklyn library, and shopping for lentils at The Met.

My current office isn't quite as creepy as Kids Headquarters, the place I freelanced in 2006...diaper-clad baby mannequins everywhere. But today I got a good laugh out of seeing this mannequin arm reaching out from underneath a pile of fabric rolls...as if in supplication.

These people seemed to be traveling around...saw them first at PS1, then hours later in the Times Square subway.

I should have listened to instinct here and walked away after snapping the photo. Instead, I thought I might be more subtle by staying in place, and then overheard the couple discussing quietly whether or not I'd taken their photo. Oh well.

Only in Times Square would New York's Finest become a tourist attraction.
