*If you still have some holiday shopping 2 do, head on over to the Brooklyn Lyceum's Holiday Craft Market (BK Craft Central).
*PSlope shop Urban Alechemist is having a holiday party tonight from 7-10 and jewlery, housewares art and clothing will all be marked 50% off. And also there will be a "naughty Santa" and, though we have no clue what that actually means, it sounds intriguing (Racked).
*Get edu-macated about our pick for Obama's hottest new staffer: speech writer Jon Favreau (Buzzfeed).
*See the classic, A Charlie Brown Christmas, performed in its entirety live...on stage (can't wait to see how they deal with Pig Pen) (Brooklyn Lyceum).
*The Battle for the biggest, bad-asssest Menorah is on. Crown a winner and eat some latkes (Brooklyn Paper).
*Help this Belgian ad agency figure out who should get fired...they can't decide (Buzzfeed).
*Be generous...and please help the Brooklyn Steppers Marchers Band from Bed Stuy get to DC for Obama's inauguration next month. They were chosen from over 1400 other bands throughout the country to play at the big event and now they need to pay their own way (Brownstoner).
*Have you been shitcanned recently (like the dude above?). Join a jobless club! (NYDN).

*Bring your pooch to the annual FIDO Holiday Gathering in Prospect Park on Saturday morn from 8-10am (Gowanus Lounge).
*If dogz aren't your jam and you're more into kitties, head on over to NYC Pet (218 Fifth Avenue btwn Union & President) for a rad cat/kitten pet adoption event with Empty Cages. They'll be there from 1-6pm (Empty Cages).
*If you wanna get your shop awn, you can try Bust's Holiday Craftacular (Bust).
*OR the awesome Gifted Brooklyn Flea/TONY holiday market (where FIPS fave Pop Judaica will be) (Brooklyn Flea).
*Get ready for the BAGEL OFF. It's on, motherfuckers! Monday the results will be revealed and this weekend, many, many bagels will be consumed by yours truly and our Jewssip buds (FIPS!).
As part of our ongoing video series, I'll be hitting the streets with my Flip Video trying to capture interesting stuff in and around Park Slope.
One of my weekly columns, F.I.P.S. Spy Cam, will be the first of many social experiments. The concept is simple: each week I'll stand on the corner of an intersection in Park Slope and let the camera run for exactly one minute. The footage will speak for itself. Some weeks will be interesting/exciting/explosive, and some won't (don't shoot the messenger, people).
On this rainy Sunday, I shot the corner of 7th Ave. and Union.
