Dirty Lyrics

Pedestrians walk past a pile of garbage and snow mixed together in the Brooklyn borough of New York, Tuesday, Feb. 8, 2011. The mountains of snow may finally be melting away from New York City streets after more than a month of waist-high drifts but now there are new problems: pot holes, garbage piles five feet tall and black mounds of filthy, oozing refuse that no one wants to deal with.
