In case you've been elbow-deep in London Riots and the sinking Dow, here's a quick wrap-up of juicy FiPS news that graced the pages of our blog this week:

* BON VOYAGE TO THE PAVILION'S PURPLE SEATS: These misfits were lazily lined up against the outside of the building like a gaggle of tired kids waiting to get into the first midnight show for any Harry Potter movie. I haven't been back, but FiPS commenter "rotstan" says the following: "I saw Planet of the Apes there over the weekend.  The new rocking chair-style seats are comfy and the floors were fairly clean." 

* CALL OFF THE SEARCH PARTY: BONGO THE MISSING MONKEY HAS BEEN FOUND!: The verdict is still out as to whether or not this whole weird-as-shit story is one big joke. 

* WILLIAMSBURG HATES PARK SLOPE: They hate us, and we hate them back so hard, and then Mrs. Garrett comes along and yells at everyone: "GIRLS, GIRLS! YOU'RE BOTH PRETTY!"

* BREAKING: GORILLA'S LAWSUITS AGAINST FORMER EMPLOYEES & THE NY TIMES ARE DEE-SMISSED! After years of dramz, this thing was finally settled. Baristas all across the country can dance now. It's safe to dance.

* GOWANUS WOMAN MUMMIFIES FROGS: This needs no comments...

* DO YOU WANT FREE CULTURE YOGURT? The answer to this, of course, is yes. You voted on your favorite flavor, and it will be served at the Totally Free Froyo, Yo event on Thursday, August 18th. Be there or Bea Arthur.
