Little Britain Keeps Plugging Away
ByThe Campaign for Little Britain has not been an entire waste of Richard Branson’s money. Inspired by a series of emails in which CFLB insists that there is a precedent for renaming blocks after small businesses, New York Magazine’s Daily Intel blog has come up with a great idea:
If they get the north side of Greenwich Avenue between West 12th and West 13th Streets renamed “Little Britain,” we demand to have the south side of that same block  in a window above which we happen to be sitting as we’re writing this  renamed “Little Place Where Some Jewish Writers Live.” We suspect we can find evidence that they’ve had a history in the neighborhood, too. And perhaps El Al will pay for our PR.
Now this idea I like a lot. I’d happily sign a petition for the CFLPWSJWL. Perhaps we could rename vast swathes of Park Slope accordingly too?

How about my street being renamed “Place Where Men’s Pants are Tighter than Women’s”? Catchy, don’t you think?
