oneUnit: I just saw the acme yard for the first time the other day, every city needs a place like this, people are going to do graffiti, give them a spot (or 2 or 3) and illegal graff will diminish, not totally, but... this yard was a little slice of heaven...

EvilGentleman: At the moment, I'm in class, the only place I have internet access for now. Never opt for consolidating phone and internet bills, if you are not 100% financially stable. I cannot regain my net service until I pay my old land-line bill, and I can barely afford to pay...
