GGP: they're actually pretty good-looking birds; if they were so overpopulated we'd probably treasure them.

jack: i thought it was an alien's shadow.

in response to Vespa

jack: the second photo is of a goat. llamas have majical powers, if you grab one by the ear it will follow you anywhere. and if you sleep with llamas you will marry an ass. i know this because a guy i knew, his mother was married to...

jack: the first snow figure looks like a girl i once dated in 1960

in response to Dec 19 2005

jack: oh, oh an intellectual. they say a mans best friend is a dog, well after 60 a toilet is a mans best friend.

in response to Humbodlt Park: Don\'t leave but make it better

anon (external47-162.cps.k12.il.us): what do you think about the MLDZ and LATINKINGS gang war going on right now

in response to Humbodlt Park: Don\'t leave but make it better

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: I made an attempt to go to work, but took one look at the backed-up traffic and hundreds of people walking toward the 59th street bridge and turned back. If I can avoid walking 4 miles in subzero weather, I will. Luckily, I can telecommute, so I'm at home working...

in response to Vermin to Some

jeeff: a few years ago i used to dislike them, but then i had a change of heart. ps. i bet the sidewalks aren't so empty today. i bet there are some crazy photo opportunities during the transit strike in new york

in response to Vermin to Some

GGP: wow. that's quite a story. lovely shadows/birds.

in response to Vermin to Some

GGP: as are giant pink sea snails. alpacas are also cute. they look like UFOs, but spit green bile when you make them angry.

in response to Llama Gets Nasty

Jamie: wow. not only a vespa but a shadow of a vespa. now all we need is ellis g.

in response to Vespa

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: Llamas are evil! They bite and spit. Pushmepullyous are ok though.

in response to Llama Gets Nasty

elaine: yeah, it was nice watching it and starting off with just a passing interest as a nature nerd and then getting more and more drawn in. i had forgotten about the dog thing at the beginning until the end when she filmed a walk with her new puppy and i...

in response to Grubbin\'

elaine: it's a bit of a cheat. that bit about the nostril hair is supposed to be just paying attention to the breath at the nose while you breathe in and out, but i suddenly got seaweed, and now i always do it. don't get me started on visualisation - i am...

in response to Brains For Sale

GGP: that's a great visualization, elaine.

in response to Brains For Sale

GGP: well, the doc sounds great. i can personally relate to the scenario, and that scenario is, in part, how i found my way to citynoise. long, dogless walks in springtime lead me to pet bird and from there to citynoise. Now that I have a pup, the walks are different...

in response to Grubbin\'

GGP: i've heard that llamas are very territorial. i've heard they make good guard animals. i've heard...well, i've heard (and herded) a lot of things.

in response to Llama Gets Nasty

elaine: and the laugh, and the broken tear ducts (that was mustard gas, also not genetic)

in response to Dec 19 2005

roland: 5) displayng an irrational hatred for John Wayne 6) saying you can't take a bus coz they belong to the council 7) taking their bride to a hibs match after their wedding ceremony 8) losing their fingers in amuntion factories ok - no 8 might not be genetic

in response to Dec 19 2005

elaine: yeah, i like that topsy turvy world of cheap shit transiting into prescioussss when abroad. i knew someone who went to australia and wore her doc martens to work in a chippie - eminently sensible in any workplace, and her workmates were horrified at her wearing such prescious things to...

in response to A Pint of Stella at Half

Jamie: Stella is French you fool. Though i do agree that Stella == Wifebeater. And kobe, you are a chav. I'm feling argumentative this afternoon. Apparently in the US, Stella is considered gourmet premium foreign shit. And has a price tag to match. Sweet.

in response to A Pint of Stella at Half

elaine: my idea? go to italy and look out for; 1) blanket bombing salt and pepper action 2) people who constantly tap their companion's arm while talking to them 3) people who have a disconserting resemblence to scottish cartoon characters 'the broons' 4) anyone actually acting out whole scenes from films just by way...

in response to Dec 19 2005

roland: knew you'd like WW1 reference, if grandad is omniscient now he'll also know that mum didn't put pudding on the table untill he'd finished his mains due to his shock and awe approach to applying salt and pepper to his food. Back to WW1 & grandad - I still...

in response to Dec 19 2005

elaine: ha. you slay me with the flanders field thing - grandad would have liked that story i think. i wonder if there really is an afterlife where he and grannie know how we used to play grannie and grandad by nashing around the living room on our knees?

in response to Dec 19 2005

roland: yeah - only the posh people, like the kids of the checkout women at the co-op had access to fancy bits of cardboard as makeshift sledges. bin liners were the trend for corstorphine hill, which was quite steep, - the challenge was to get enough speed for a thrill...

in response to Dec 19 2005

elaine: my brother used to call that poly bagging - they used to use bin bags - this was edinburgh i add, you couldn't do anything like this in the balmy south
