Previous Day :: Next Day

Michelle: I think she's not crazy. In fact that was something she said to us all - "every day people look at me and think I'm crazy". She clearly knows how she comes off. I think it is her strategy, also, I think that because she had somewhere to go -...

christina: i live one block away.

CE: It's the same display this year as it was last. Do they usually have a different one every year?

in response to Merry Christmas!

christina: my grandfather was buried here. my mom chokes up every time i mention it

in response to Rust and Rememberance

Anonymous: Exactly what I was about to say, EvilGentleman. What possible advantage could revealing all this give to the "New World Order?" Wouldn't they want to keep it secret? If it was intentional, it would be hushed up. You know what this is? Artistic architecture. That's...

christina: i'm only 17. this was my friend who passed away this picture struck me by surprise. i love your pictures. your everywhere.

in response to Stop!

Barbarian Clive: Damn, I've been tricked! :P But yes. You're absolutely right. I'm not sure if you live in America or not--I'm assuming you do, since you refer to Hollywood, and this sort of hypocrisy has permeated our culture. It's sad, really. We go to the movies, and watch...

Bob: Yes the statistics bear out that Hutchinson is poor and has many residents in retirement homes. The education level is not that low for the Midwest. I do acquiesce on the level of poverty though, I was shocked that we were that much higher than average. I still say...

Barbarian Clive: Very interesting. What's interesting is that the homeless are presumed to be crazy...but she appears not to be. In fact, she appears quite sane, if eccentric. Am I right in saying this, or is she, in fact, off her rocker.

in response to On My Way to Scarborough Yesterday

Deb Walker (nee Ormandy): Alison & Andrew I think all mum's used to worry about glass in the pool!! but it used to be so busy and a really nice place to be especially when the sun was shining and I am sure it used to shine alot more than it does these days -...

Peter: yes, it always makes me chuckle a bit when one non-indigenous subset of people start possessively talking down to another subset of non-indigenous people in terms of their collective geography. makes one wonder what gives them the idea it should be inherently franco/anglo/whatever in the first place...

Joining the Whine: OK, Padre Island, you win. I'm cornered by statistics. I won't quote Disraeli though, because I agree with a couple of them. income below average = agreed, a problem. Hutch needs to do better attracting business in a big way house value significantly below = can live in a bigger...

EvilGentleman: I guess they would go home to England. Mind you, the writer of the wall scrawl above has not considered what that might also imply for the French of Quebec. Oh well, at least I'm safe. But if the English and French leave, then I suppose the housing market will be...

in response to Anglos Go Home

Peter: im wondering where, exactly, theyre supposed to "go home" to... anglo-ville? or are they referring to tourists or something?

in response to Anglos Go Home

jack: so far its almost twice the hits as my icy cold day in half the time posted, wow,, no WOW.

Andrew Smith: Alison - I was at Fiddlers Lane in the early 80's. I think my Mum was worried about glass too!

in response to These Things No Longer Exist

Padre Island: Check out this website, it's loaded with statistics about Hutch, quite an eyeopener www.city-data.com/city/Hutchinson-Kansas.html Here's an example: Hutchinson compared to Kansas state average: Median household income below state average. Median house value significantly below state average. Black race population percentage significantly below state average. Foreign-born population percentage significantly below state...

Jamie: But surely if it were en français then the stupid anglophones wouldn't be able to read it.

Jamie: Nice. Duplo of Peterborough, yeh?

in response to Duplo Graffiti

BelievelandBikes: Nice piece... If you're the writer, it would be nice to see a series of your walls across the city. It might help us get a sense of your style in general rather than just an isolated tag. If you're not the writer and you happen upon some...

in response to Duplo Graffiti

Padre Island: As far as your tax dollars providing a good education in Hutchinson, let's do a reality check on the results. According to www.city-data.com/city/Hutchinson-Kansas.html For population 25 years and over in Hutchinson High school or higher: 82.3% Bachelor's degree or higher: 17.2% Graduate or professional degree: 5.8% That means only 17.2% have a...
