Ok..the woman in the park is an ignorant twit.

Not exactly, she's a "bored" housewife who has reinvented herself as the proprietress of blog "queensmamas.com", thereby setting herself up as the arbiter of morals for the borough of Queens.

Re Google:
Leni Calas was one bored Queens mama.

Her husband was at work, her daughter was in school and she was pregnant and alone in her Astoria home when inspiration hit.

Frustrated (no kidding there!) by the lack of online resources for Queens parents, Calas, 31, googled "how to blog." And in April 2009, www.queensmamas.com was born.

"It was a moment of pregnant desperation," said the life-long Queens resident. "I knew nothing about Web development or design."

The website, which features a colorful array of local parenting tips and a list of family friendly borough events, was recently revamped using money Calas won in a small business competition.

Gack! I can't get the thought out of my head...

In other news (check out the comments!) there is hope for Queens after all is said and done.

What’s with all of this “realistic” crap? There’s nothing “realistic” about either of those guns other than they are vaguely gun shaped...
