First his blog went off the air, then the incredibly sad news that Bob Guskind, the man behind Gowanus Lounge, had passed away yesterday, March 4th.
Bob was known by everyone in the blogger community. He worked harder than any of us, published seven days a week and covered more of Brooklyn than any other borough blogger.

Over the last year and a half, Bob has been so wonderfully generous in helping Pardon Me For Asking reach a wider audience. I will forever be grateful to him and will miss the man as well as his online voice.
Rest in peace, Bob.
