fallsroadfra: I have to agree with reggie to a certain degree. I once read an article, in News Week I think, it claimed that belfast was probably the safest city in the world for women. I would have agreed back then (about 1998). From what I can glean in sites like...

Cate: They came to my side of Western...Humboldt Park...but even around here it's being re-gentrified.

in response to wicker park

Elicar: Speaking of memories...My ex-father-in-law, Jack, was very fond of puzzles. He had something different laid out everytime we go for our monthly visits. He used to complain that there's always a piece missing. I used to love to tease/annoy him by messing up his puzzles (not too much to give...

in response to Not So Puzzled

Peter: the sad thing is that most americans arent interested in "defeating this evil" so much as we are in rebuilding, getting the hell out of this clusterfuck of a war in iraq, hoping our belabored country can survive the remaining years of bush's fascism, and not being hated (more than...

in response to Video Stills of the Pre-9/11 New York

Jono: EvilGentleman: Thank you, and speaking about having photos printed out as puzzles. I saw an ad somewhere for that recently but found it was a bit pricey. I think for a larger puzzle, much like the one here it was about $35.00. How does that compare against...

Jono: a'la: Yes, it's a full 1,000 pieces! What kind of puzzles do you like to do? Peter: Thanks for sharing the memories! Like you say puzzles come apart far too quickly for the amount of time and love put into them, it's sad almost. Having a picture to...

EvilGentleman: It kind of has that roaring twenties feel to it... Say, where has jack been? His comments would be fitting here.

EvilGentleman: Reminds me of a time in the 80's when I was in Times Square and bought a walkman off a folding card table that was piled up with merchandise pretty much like this. (minus the powerpuff girl, of course)

EvilGentleman: Looking a little deeper into the photo, I see a possible scenario here: The Oakville Police have been deeply concerned as of late due to an unknown person or persons who have been nailing plywood to windows and doors all over Oakville.
