Dan: Peveral OM are scam artists. They make money out of wheel clamping the innocent. Do not trust them!!!

in response to Anti-Climb Paint

old skool thug: They started to use this in footoe grounds in the late 80's. Did it work?..... Well no! Like your post earlier stated, somebody would sacrafice a t-shirt and everyone would climb over. Spikes are better. - espacially in a baseball bat :)

Lady Chevalier, RaNae: Inspiring, Impressive, and Wonderful. What a great organization. Keep up the work with the youth and helping others to realize the tremendous heritage of your fore fathers. Animals have always taught us, blessed our lives and gives us a chance to learn compassion, empathy,...

GGP: a wee bit totemic, eh? i may have finally found a god I can really get behind!

in response to empty reference repeat

Not Important: I'm a 16 year old girl who has lived in the Humboldt Park area all my life. I lived down the corner when little Miguel died, I was 11 years old, that caused alot of drama in my neighborhood. Things like that is just life, u get used to it...

in response to Humboldt Park

ea: ...belongs to the architect doing the remodel - he's inside getting as-built dimensions ;)

in response to Derelict Building with Beamer

elaine: very intellectual cat - in my experience cats tend to read printed matter through their bums

in response to Cat, Kubrick

elaine: ooh! likey! now that is very pleasing

in response to empty reference repeat

elaine: yeah, i remember liking it. i think it was course cut as well, not, you know, pureed

in response to all component things

elaine: har. they must be strong, it's true, and they do have the dawg guarding

in response to Boulders on B Street

green: thanks for the coverage i'm looking for your email J i made my way into yer documentation very good what's the feelings about work gettin crossed out lil graffiti drama? for the kids laughin havin fun peace green

in response to graffiti alley / style in progress \'05

Peter: yea, id imagine robots are pretty sensitive to light/sound stimulus, naturally.

piranha erem: but will you have your camera on hand in the case you encounter one of the lost bots?

in response to the rash of robot-nappings continues!

jeeff: yeah malfy has a kind of buck rogers aesthetic. i should mention of course that i just happened across this on my street - i claim no credit.

piranha erem: very interesting. i really am liking the birds in the first two photos.

in response to Pet Bird Outing

piranha erem: ha ha ha this is very funny!

in response to the rash of robot-nappings continues!

no_brakes23: I just put the other two in for hisortical context. Of course, we all know about ancient civilizations writing on the walls, but the modern age of graff had three significant events that led up to what we have now. During WWII, a worker in a munitions plant wrote "Kilroy was here"...

in response to Pet Bird Outing

Peter: and one more for context... note new green paint and Pet Bird sticker:

in response to Lionel Richie Paste-Ups

Peter: woah, now theres an interesting twist... i get the charlie parker connection, but dont know enough about the other two you mentioned to make the connection... explain? id love to know...

in response to Pet Bird Outing

Peter: voo voo was alot cooler looking, but roll-o-bot has some appeal, its middle arm notwithstanding. i wonder if they all ran away to join the Robot Circus...?

in response to the rash of robot-nappings continues!

no_brakes23: I wonder if they realize the historical significance of what they are doing. Between Kilroy the bomb factory worker in the 40's and Cornbread trying to impress a girl in the 70's, after Charlie Parker died in the 60's, there was a lot of Bird Lives graff. Could it be related? A...

in response to Pet Bird Outing

jeeff: hahaha, well put.

in response to The Black Sea: Water Slide in Varna

Peter: hahaha yeah! funny.

in response to My unusual hobby

Mad Jane: Anyone remember that episode of The Young Ones in which the Telly Inspector comes to see if they have a license and Vivian eats the TV, then tells the inspector it's a toaster when he asks about the chord hanging out of his mouth?

in response to My unusual hobby

jeeff: i dunno about pate, but everything i've heard about wild boar suggests it's delicious.

in response to all component things

jeeff: most people here leave the murals alone, i guess cuz they feel bad about covering the kids' work. i'd love to cover it up, but only if i could do something grand and sweeping over the whole thing.

in response to Pet Bird Before/After

Peter:

in response to Pet Bird Outing

Peter: as far as i can tell, its a single family home... which is rare in this neighborhood. most of the old brownstones like that have been split into at least 2-3 apartments or so. that huge four story house for probably two people! lucky them... they must have been living...

in response to Boulders on B Street

Peter: hahah totally. same here. they have a penchant for having school kids do "public murals" here on the occasional graffed up walls... and man, let me tell you, id rather see the shittiest graf ever than the tourettes-ish scrawls of schoolkids who have been programmed to paint foofy shit about...

in response to Pet Bird Before/After

jeeff: that house is amazing. beautiful gardens.

in response to Boulders on B Street

jeeff: man, some of the 'graffiti transformation' murals around toronto are the most hideous things you're ever likely to see. just goes to show how far our civic leaders have their heads stuck up their arses.

in response to Pet Bird Before/After

francesca.: i would like keep kontakt with someone in the squatter,is it possible to live over there?

in response to Squatter\'s Haven on OranienburgerstraBe

Wild Boar Pate is Wonderful!: I found this string looking for it to order some online. I had it while visiting the UK earlier this summer and it totally turned me on to pate. Don't knock it till you try it.

Peter: yeah, if i had a dollar for every time ive wondered how the hell they got all those rocks there, id be a rich man!

in response to Boulders on B Street

GGP: One more.

in response to empty reference repeat

GGP: damn, peter! I DID forget to shoot the mural. that was dopey! rocks in my head, I reckon! elaine: truth is, I am a little scared to ring the bell! I don't want my pile of bones found under one of those boulders in 20 years...and it's hard not to believe...

in response to Boulders on B Street

elaine: "I am tempted to ring the doorbell one of these days to express my appreciation for this spectacle, but that is such NOT a New York City thing to do!" well, yeah, but it sounds like neither is this. obviously not your total mainstream line toe-er doing this. i love...

atak: hahaha what up pet bird

in response to Pet Bird Outing

sashmit: hi there, some info: this slide originally used a carriage, which would slide on a rail directly into the sea, but didn't make it past the 1970's. About 10 yrs later (things moved slowly during Communism), it was converted, into a tube slide. And the enclosure was actually a swimming pool. No...

in response to The Black Sea: Water Slide in Varna

Peter: its funny... that social club gets tagged up alot, being as they always have a nice, clean canvas (those black doors on the side). They generally paint over it or clean it off within a day, even hours sometimes. But those birds have been ther for over a week. I'm...

in response to Pet Bird Outing

Peter: i love that area... and photos of the empire state building are always classic! it looks like you were out on the ferry for the next-to-last shot, or at least very far out on the dock!

in response to Travelling Manhattan

Peter: you missed the best part! that huge mural, on the wall headed up Bergen, that depicts tons of boulders and rocks with faces staring up at a starry night. so strange. i noticed it was signed "D.G. Wilson", the guy who used to have the tattoo parlor up on Washington,...

in response to Boulders on B Street

GGP: This was certainly worth the wait, Peter! Great stuff--I love the halo over the graf bird's head! And very funny about encountering an actual pet bird in your wanderings! :)
