A destroyer of grafitti. Is it like burning books? Erasing expression.

Peter: erasing expression, and very badly at that...

the buff in action: lincolnshire style

Don't get me wrong, I have a profund appreciation for great graffiti (I'm a parttime tag artist myself), but comparing buffing out graffiti to burning books--even as a joke--is pretty insane. And take that women in the Jamie's photo, she appears to be a shop owner cleaning up the exterior of her building. Having tags on your shop is rarely thought to be good for business (and that graf looks shitty, anyway). All I'm saying is, take it easy and think before ou type.

Peter: "think before ou type"... classic! ;)

Colavito: You have a point about the woman's shop. It must be infuriating to have your business tagged up. I'm so glad it crossed your mind that I might be joking about book burning. I guess that makes me insane.
I think that you may be overreacting to a portion of a posting, a small sampling of the thousands of words that I have typed on online. If you are offended, then I have a great joke for you called the aristocrats. It's a crowd pleaser.

i want to hear it. and catherine dont worry about anything your a great photojournalist.

jack: 10th Jan 2006 - 16:30 GMT

the women is cleaning the graf with a whits wash or paint, (see the bucket) but she looks so female in her dress style and hair that she is attractive and becoming. i cant help it i love to look at women especially when they wear dresse and high heels. its become sexy. i think the pants suit of the seventies really killed me.

Parkland Pond


In the middle of this typical Halifax West suburb there is a pond. Some might call it a small lake, others a bog. While normally dark and mucky, this night the water reflected the sun catching the cut-and-paste houses and...
