COMING SOON! THE COUNTDOWN BEGINS on Hot, Hot Vanderbilt Avenue.
As Emily pointed out, and I had already forgotten, this storefront (Home Heating Oil – Coming Soon) was the former home of The Nail Gazaasm (sp?), the name of which I think was derived from an old comedy routine. I wish I could remember the reference.
I never did figure out what “Gazaasm” meant. Nothing shows up on Google, which tries to correct your spelling to “Gazaam,” who was apparently a character in The Flintstones: Viva Las Vegas. After that, I didn’t really have the heart to keep looking.
I agree with the earlier poster who didn’t understand why Home Heating Oil requires a storefront. The only reason I could think of is that they could try to lure you in to tell you about different home heating options and get you to switch from whatever you’re using now.
I was in that nail salon once. I was desperate to get a mani. It was really freaky and dirty in there. I never understood how they stayed open so long. Now, I wish they were back! I would rather have a shady nail salon then a home heating store.
Gazaasm 4 Eva!
I cannot WAIT for Home Heating Oil to open! I am going to party my fucking ass off there. All night. Every night. Williamsbarf has NOTHING on us.
