Previous Day :: Next Day

sine: wow! a question: does "global warming" effect all this? that is, are there any effects on this sort of traditional lifestyle due to climate changes?

in response to Muktaaq and Arctic Char a La Box

Humboldt Park - Dave: Staci, Sounds like you bumped into my X @ Foremost Liquors. I sent her out for some smokes and she hasn't made it back. The Fur, ring and purse was my Christmas gift to her. I promised not to tell, but there all FAKE! I purchased them @ MegaMall before it...

in response to Humboldt Park

Cameo: where is that bridge?

in response to Boiling Lake

Grant: I shall weep along with them, than scrape the paint the F*** off with a spatula or sumthing lol. one of those cement smoothers should work?

in response to Anti-Climb Paint

GGP: 16-riding the subway over the Manhattan Bridge and sailing past all the people in their cars, sitting in traffic. 17-strange and interesting (campy) ads

in response to Things I Love About Public Transit

EvilGentleman: I like the way you positioned the sign relative to the white building in the background.

in response to Back In The Day

EvilGentleman: Imagine if you will, fast moving clouds of ice fog enveloping this bridge... When it is -35 C (-31 F) and the winds are 90 km/h (55 mph), that chilled fog just cuts through you like a knife. Am I ever glad I do not need to use that bridge anymore.

in response to Boiling Lake

EvilGentleman: LOL, I just knew someone would do this post sooner or later. Might I add: 12 - By using a daily or monthly pass, you have one of the best ways to explore a new city there could ever be. 13 - No worries about finding a parking spot 14 - Built-in monkey...

GGP: too few arrows in architecture these days...

in response to Back In The Day

elaine: likey

in response to Back In The Day

Sergio Saucedo: "No Dejes Que ..." is one of Jaguares' best hits of spanish latin rock of all time. Originally Jaguares was named Caifanes at the time of this song's release in May of 1992, still sounds good to me.

in response to Everytime I Wake Up

Peter: empty reference repeat

in response to Back In The Day

GGP: great, eclectic tour. every tour should have at least one frog!

in response to NYC Rapid Fire

Daniel: I was down there last weekend and saw they had closed. Does anyone know why?

Pulco: Esta canción es tan hermosa en mi corazón

in response to Everytime I Wake Up

jeeff: nice. i'd like to see more graffiti on the ground. also, clever people to get the stencils up behind the bars.

in response to Street Art

jeeff: 11. mariachi bands

in response to Things I Love About Public Transit

Staci: and p.s. see, we're all human, i'm gonna call myself out right now before anyone has the opportunity to. "Get to know someone before you judge them" yet in the same posting I am talking negatively about someone in line in front of me with more money than...

Micah: Do the legs down the lion's throat belong to the head right over the two heads facing centre over the lion's eyes?

in response to Lion

Micah: I remember reading a long time ago in National Geographic or something about kids in (probably Northern) Ireland playing in gutted-out cars 'cos there was nowhere else for them to play. These photos made me think of that. Only this is funny not sad.

in response to Street Kittens

EvilGentleman: Still think the whole package would be better if he was also selling used books. Oh, and Peter, the cameraphone seems pretty good, but maybe it would be better to just buy a compact point-and-shoot camera with about a 5 or 7 megapixel resolution. They are not too expensive now,...

in response to Lunch Truck

EvilGentleman: I thought Catholic beliefs forbade the usage of protection...

in response to Cathodic Protection Test Point

EvilGentleman: Sometimes I see tourist documentaries about Montreal, and I see a bunch of things I never knew existed! Funny how things can become invisible when you pass them every day.

in response to NYC Rapid Fire

an impossible child: bless yeah i can understand the feeling nervous etc, i used to totally freak out every year we would have exhibitions at college, even if they were not terribly well publicised etc... makes no sense really :) x

in response to Silly Cow, the Exhibition

EvilGentleman: Lyle, thank you very very much for the compliments/advice/vote of confidence. I do not know if I have it in me to achieve a professional level of photographic talent, but I am sure hoping to find out! I would definitely love to join the ranks of the many great photographers...

in response to Arctic Landscapes II

Staci: To: Humboldt Park Dave/ Ratone Chocha/ Insightoner Thanks Dave. I'll have to check that out. I'll keep things posted on here every so often. Ratone, I live on Humboldt and Cortland. As far as Insightoner, You are abolutely right. Yuppies are yuppies and need to...

in response to Humboldt Park

Micah: 'They can break a man's arm you know.' Poor Adrian Mole.

in response to swans throwing shapes

Micah: Ah donairs! One of the things I miss most as far as meat is concerned. That and Hawaiian pizza. If I ever become un-vegetarian it may be the fault of one of the two. That donair in the pic looks sooooooo delicious!

in response to Lunch Truck

elaine: could have been. it would have to be something big. i was thinking a bus. but those sheets look pretty thin and i bet if you hit it hard enough with anything, like a projectile or whatever, the metal would buckle, and you would have 'taa raa' dismal results

in response to Building Curves

Peter: i think a delivery truck ran into it a few times. perhaps it was the fed-ex truck...

in response to Building Curves

elaine: see, curves are good when they are well made, but that is a bit bashed looking.

in response to Building Curves

Micah: Do they have library books sales where you are? In Edmonton every summer at the Fringe Festival and every fall they sell off old books, CDs, videos for really cheap, like 50c. for a paperback, 2$ for CDs. You can pretty much build your own private library out...

in response to Booktrash

elaine: the private view is tomorrow, which makes me feel sick. but i have badges, which makes me feel happy. there should be colour ones but i don't have them yet.

in response to Silly Cow, the Exhibition

Micah: Ditto Catholic! Lazy eyes.

in response to Cathodic Protection Test Point

elaine: well if you are really lazy about getting to the end of words you can make up for the catholic thing straight away with protestant...

in response to Cathodic Protection Test Point

Micah: In re: #46: Something like that happened in Edmonton last week only more brutal: a man was beaten to death by some kids on the bus, and there were apparently a fair number of people on the bus but no-one did anything, nobody stepped in to help. The bus...

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: Wow! Looks like a steamy drink at Quarks Bar in Vegas. But real.

in response to Boiling Lake

elaine: i'm the same with london. and people can tell, because i tend not to get mad drunk people in the street, but get a lot of direction askers

in response to NYC Rapid Fire

groovehouse: Wow, amazing stencil work and graffiti!

in response to Street Art

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: I love a trip round a city from a certain viewpoint, especially slightly seedy. Manchester is a great city.

in response to It\'s the Dog\'s...

elaine: i like that headless thing next to the seam of the thing it's on (thing)

in response to It\'s the Dog\'s...

groovehouse: Nice shots of Manchester, thanks for sharing!

in response to It\'s the Dog\'s...

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: It's fun living in New York and also being a tourist guide. It gives you a whole new perspective on this fabulous place.

in response to NYC Rapid Fire

Micah: Bus, taxi and cycle lanes make my heart glad. (Cycle lanes alone even more so.) Since I've left Edmonton I have not seen a single one. This is lovely (and also adds to my homesickness).

in response to It\'s the Dog\'s...

Cameo: I think it looks more like the wing of an airplane.

in response to Lipstick

insightoner: Good stuff. A couple of things to keep everything in perspective: Humbolt was white untill the 70's. Don't you think the whites that lived there pre70's felt the same way when Puerto Ricans moved in? I noticed a huge double standard - when white people are...

Myke: Oh she didn't see it coming.

in response to Look out Lady!

elaine: oh dur, didn't notice jamie already said that. duh

in response to CN Eclipse

elaine: weeeel you know, i like a bit of modern, but i think it's interesting that trellick is seen as being the last word in glamourous living while it's identical twin in poplar is portrayed in tv etc as being a shithole. you decide!

in response to Bauhaus My Ass

elaine: i like the whole group together, it makes a nice docco

in response to NYC Rapid Fire

elaine: i didn't know citynoise had it's own tower. cool.

in response to Drip

Cameo: no... just the boring seagull variety.

Biff: What kind of birds are those? Cormorants?

in response to Boiling Lake

comiddle: Gorgeous stuff. 'bout time there was some decent Australian graffiti on here.

in response to Street Art

an impossible child: how do you guys (londoners mainly) feel about that abomination in westbourne park? (the highly acclaimed trellick tower, 'architectural masterpiece'?) ive so had issues with it from day one of seeing it. makes me want to dynamite things...! :P no matter how many architects they put on tv to tell...

Elicar: And here's a picture from the bottom.

in response to CN Eclipse

Elicar: By the way, I have climed the stairs twice for United Way: 98 and 99. They say it is 1,776 steps. LIE! The finish line is still about 50 steps from the restaurant and viewpoint. My legs turned rubbery after 100 steps and felt like each weighed a ton not...

in response to CN Eclipse

Elicar: HAHA! Funny Jamie! This one means Canada's National Tower. Here's the official website: www.cntower.ca/portal/

in response to CN Eclipse

Jamie: cool, a new theme things that look like other things when they are covered in snow heh

Laura : Incredible photographs. We do live in a spectacular city, don't we?

in response to NYC Rapid Fire

Guy McLaren: What is this Public Transport? Dont you people own a car?

in response to Things I Hate About... Public Transit

Guy McLaren: Its my opinion that they all fall into different arenas, ie small game, Big 5, coutry roads and architechture.

Chuckles: Hi Sean: Congratulations on your most excellant photographic eye. I am a Prof Photographer who started shooting in the 50's and I still get excited about my latest project, my most recent image, my 'cookin' on the back burner' image in progress. The content of your photographs are amazing .......

in response to Arctic Landscapes II

EvilGentleman: That was a typo. At least there were no stains... sheesh!

in response to NYC Rapid Fire

EvilGentleman: Love these pictures, especially the frog, the Chrysler building (can that Buck Rogers spire ever look bad?) and the water towers. And at least there are stains on the Concorde's toilet services panel, that would have been a touch of reality best left undocumented.

in response to NYC Rapid Fire

Biff: Form follows function....

in response to Strictly Bauhaus

Biff: Wow! I meant to take one myself during the lunar eclipse yesterday. Good darts. Biff

in response to CN Eclipse

Elicar: That's wxactly my point S. It's not even in the best area!

in response to Count Your Blessings

S: Elicar, if you think those prices outrageous check out some of the prices in other parts of the city. I have a family member living in the Annex. He bought the house 25 years ago for pennies. Now it's worth at least a million bucks simply because of it's...

Elicar: My friend just received an offer to his house. They are closing May 12. His house is at Gerrard and Coxwell, was built in the 1920's, a three bedroom very small semi-detached (I believe that's duplex at the south of the border)at 1200 sq. ft., with knob and tube electical...
