Time is near for the dismantling of Coney Island, it is scheduled for 
destruction and disneyfication.  The outlook for the Mermaid parade seems 
bleak although there isn't too much controversy, just clean American prime 
time fun...with beer and leica.  I have to say, the enthusiasm of some of 
the photographers seems just a little...well, unnatural.  But, where else 
can you photograph soft-core porn on a public street in the afternoon 
except Brooklyn.  Take the fins off and it's a typical Saturday night.
