FIPS JUICY: BEST STORIES OF THE WEEK

In case you've spent the week wondering why the fuck a goat was recently dining at a Midtown Pizzeria, here's a quick wrap-up of juicy FiPS news that graced the pages of our blog this week:

* Free advice for park slope businesses: Empty Storefronts: Erica has some really great ideas as to what we should do with vacant spaces (spoiler: one of them is doggie daycare!)

* We're All in this together: Cable-N-Internet: We're curious to know what you pay for cable and internet so that we can collectively determine who in this neighborhood is getting royally fucked. 

* FiPS Preview: The Burger Bistro: FiPS snack guru Shawn got a sneak peek at the joint's customizable menu: "You want a lamb burger rare with smoked gouda, fried egg, guac & wasabi mayo?" he writes. "You're a fucking lunatic, but they'll do it for you. In short...who are they to tell you what you should eat? HAVE IT YOUR WAY, MUTHAFUCKA!"

* Damn the man, save the G train! Consider signing this petition if you want to save G line service at Fourth Avenue-Ninth Street, Seventh Avenue, Prospect Park-15th Street, Fort Hamilton Parkway and Church Avenue.

* Frothy brown santorum now being served in glasses at pacific standard: Just... read it.

* Who Gives a shit: What do you get on your bagel?: We here at FiPS offered up all of our great (and sometimes gross) recommendations and asked you to do the same!
