Previous Day :: Next DayCatherine Penfold-Waxman: I totally missed these chickens. Metoo: we have snow sculptures also.
jack: they are called encyclicals. go to a religious book store and look. i believe your correct catherine. and elaine you can be anything you want to be, your smart enough. Catherine Penfold-Waxman: No, Mr. E. The temple had been completely revamped with new carpet. The temple was open for viewing for only a few weeks. After that, the carpet was replaced again. By the way, it was a very light cream with a really nice detailing around the edges. I thought about... Metoo: I am actually near the canal and Carleton university, only 10 minutes, by car, to right downtown, with my own dock (for my Canoe) onto the river. on the juice : i'm with you jack.......am i missing somthing? jack: by the way do you think my commentary is interesting? jack: its true. im scared of the comments all of you will make. i have photos that i took and am holding until i get to know how to post them here. how do i do that? i love all of your pics even the graff photos... jack: actually there were bigger guys than me. i was 6' 165 lbs. i became friends with a lot of guys. all races and creeds. we knew each other and trusted each other. i grew up in an all white neighborhood in bklyn and became close... Metoo: The eiffel tower is not in a quake zone like tokyo is. johnny E: I think the carpet replacement would have more to do with the thousands and thousands of people travelling over it. Metoo: We already had a woman Prime Minister in Canada...she lasted a whole 4 months...had to open her mouth eventually, and thats all it took!!! on the juice : love the colours...so las vegas.and it's about time they cleaned up h.b.o. Metoo: Amazing what our governments let be defined as a "religion" all for tax avoidance purposes too!! ea: also widely known as liturgical architecture in the field franko: 12 oxen represent the 12 tribes of israel in the old testament. The interiors of these buildings are breathtaking...no expense spared I guess. Dave: Hey cool-tsk, wear a mask or hold the can a little further away, you`re taking in too many fumes.
~!@#$%^&*()_+ Cool, keyboard art! Catherine Penfold-Waxman: I have a bunch of friends who are Mormon and I was very fortunate to check out the New York temple, opposite Lincoln center. As part of the tour, we saw a video of all the various Temples, and you’re right, they’re lovely. As I was with my conspiracy-theorist husband,... Catherine Penfold-Waxman: These are really great glimpses into your city. I dig the lady in the headscarf. You can almost see through her glasses, and see what she is seeing. Lawrence: woah, liking these, all cracking photos. 43: jack, is it true that you havent posted any photos at citynoise or did I just miss them? you sure are full of commentary... Selig: go digital zoom! nice. Selig: awesome. Lawrence: bonkers! Catherine Penfold-Waxman: Nice find, by the way. Catherine Penfold-Waxman: My God, they spent the weekend watching 'Lost,' too. Selig: sweet trackbikes... i'm painting mine red and calling it the suicide royale. ahimsa: what teachings? what did he teach us? jb: JP2 came a long way to being one of the longest
Popes ever served the Catholic Church and the spreaded the gospel to the world.And He served with dignity,honesty and love.After He passed away He left no valueables to anyone and chose to be buried in a simple pine casket and... ahimsa: try ebay.....? kyle: does anyone know where i can find an old olyimpic track bike preferably a soviet russian one but that's not that important. elaine: i will concentrate on being beatific - IRL i am more of a buddha Catherine Penfold-Waxman: Elaine, when you're president/prime minister/pope, will you get rid of those pesky Iranians?
I'd rather have a president who cheated on his wife than a coke-snorting, alcoholic, born again retard.
I always read what you have to say, Jack. You've got a rare and wonderful imagination. jack: cool-tsk why are you so angry? why do you attack criticism? you can't spell. your like the kid who can't get his way so you screem at everyone and pick up your toys and leave. you curse people out and make unfounded statements. you have... Lawrence: nice! here comes the summer! jack: all that writing means one word, sorry? Lawrence: try airplane. elaine: look him up, he gets plenty mentions both here and all over the web jack: i love these photos. i hate winter. elaine: so you're not with my 'contradiction' argument, then, jack? jack: i think the guy just quit his job. jack: thats a good one. jack: there used to be trolleys on mcdonald avenue and 86th street in brooklyn. and yes we used to hang on them for a free ride to coney island. jack: well since no one is going to read my commentary on this photo, i can say pretty much anything, so here goes. first, JPII earned his resting place. he was a great Pope. now as for women being Popes, no. NO! i couldnt even begin... ...: pardon my ignorance, but i am just starting out and havnt done that much research yet, but whos banksy? jack: i dont understand this one. Lawrence: and personally, I use Zoots ;) jack: nice to see good men standing together. looks like a father and his two sons. jack: did that guy miss his train? Lawrence: erm, well that weren't the sentiment... but there ya go! jack: no comment jack: that looks like a 69 olds. the guy looks like a tired businessman who needed a rest. i like the grimy looks of the back buildings. Helen: james - not sure how they get down, probably repel
tex - you won't catch me going up there!
cheesy - thanks
jamie - more people in Canada should toot their own horn. We have a lovely country here and more people should know about it. And before the comments start,... jack: hahahaha the comments here are hilariously funny. i enjoy reading all of you talking back and forth and defending your lives and towns and names. well the photos were nice and i liked the cobblestones in the street and the way every picture seemed to screem, ' get... elaine: it's a compelling argument... and it sounds oddly familiar! Catherine Penfold-Waxman: well, he didn't speak english. des: absolutely mind blowing! jack: do i see tinkerbell in the left corner of the photo. jack: when you deposit your coins into machine a bunch of worms come tumbling out. now the trick is to pick the worms as they scramble for earth. tex: well for someone who was in the rangers you must be a pretty big guy jack: what a beautiful bridge! i drove over it every night for upteen years and always loved the grate sounds of the iron floor and the cobblestones. does anyone remember the cobblestones? tex: LOL!!do you look like a tree jack? jack: what was it before it was sparkling clean? jack: NO FOOLING AROUND I WAS STANDING ON A STREET CORNER AND SOMEONE TRIED TO STAPLE A GARAGE SALE SIGN TO ME. elaine: i think it should be given to the monkeys. after all, they have suffered a lot at human hands. like that monkey who was hanged for being a frenchman. jack: NICE PIC'S, REMINDS ME OF MY TIME IN RANGERS WHEN WE CLIMBED THE MOUNTAINS AROUND GERMANY AND AUSTRIA. elaine: i believe so, but i don't see why it should be. this is one of the problems with imperialism, is it not? when the residents end up being genetically from far away, but culturally local. good luck to them sorting it out. Catherine Penfold-Waxman: It is British territory. You have to show your passport to go there (I've been). However, the Spanish (quite rightly) want it back. It's a very strategic rock. With monkeys. and a Tescos. tex: helen have you been up there? des: i lived in spain for two years,everyone there said it belong to them,but every english person i talk to says it belongs to them,last of what i heard most of the people in gibraltar wanted english domination,what is the deal after all?and is it officialy english now? Cheesy_Member: Brilliant set of pictures!!!!! james lipton from england: helen,do they ski on there way down? elaine: nope des: believe it or not every tree in the streets of toronto are in this shape! des: hey doesn't gibraltar belong to spain? Catherine Penfold-Waxman: Tex, If you're doing the UK, you have to go to Wales, you know, to get the full set. Actually, you may have to pop down to the Falkland Islands, Gibraltar and the British Virgin Islands as well. And I hear that Australia, New Zealand, Fiji and Tuvalu have... seth: you think bush will ever get a statue like lincoln's?...nnaaahhhhhh seriously dude: ha london engaland,my background!my origin! my roots!to bad i never been there but i feel like i belong there.oh england,england,how could you just abandone your children in america and just leave,beautifull pictures! Catherine Penfold-Waxman: I actually think it was the infamous '34th gang forever' tag that was buffed to make way for the dollar sign. Because I just can't find it.
People here are very territorial, and I don't mean the gangs. The shopkeepers will only sweep garbage or shovel snow that's on... des : it looks like a sad face tho,maybe it's not laughing,maybe it is like''hi hi hi'' in pain tex: yes,for sure,always been curious about scotland Cheesy_Member: Well if your going to do that tex, Check out Edinburgh elaine: hahahaha!
thanks.
make the necessary arrangements and i will buy myself some outfits. elaine: oh, and remember to post pictures here elaine: kewel. do a bit of homework first, and you will get a lot out of your trip. des: elaine just become prime minister of canada,it is so much easier.plus to be president of the united states you can't be as smart as you elaine: i am not sure i can get with the cia. and i was not born in america. my one claim to the presidency is that i am over 35.. i don't think it would be enough. now, if you were to have a revolution and make me queen, on the... tex: yeah you guys got me going now,sounds interesting,i was actually going to check out ireland this summer but i my as well do the whole united kingdom.now that would be a tour to take pictures.thanks for the tips elaine! Catherine Penfold-Waxman: Elaine for president! (except that you have to be a natural born American citizen, who has lived in US territories for 14 years and is over 35. Also, it helps if you are a white male, with hair and a background in the CIA.) Cheesy_Member: I like that first "34th Ave Pic" shows one wall buffed and the other left with graffiti.
The attitude of im only buffign my wall, then someone comes along and sprays on it again :) elaine: sharp as a button, des. thanks ;-D seriously dude: WOW!!!!!is that like a comet or something or a ovni???on the top left side.
AWESOME!! elaine: apologies accepted, tex, for my part.
london can be a bit gloomy in a way, but not always a bad way. actually we need 60% extra rain before the summer or we have yet another drought. london has a touristy side, but it is also about a lot more than... des: elaine you are exacly the kind of women i am talking about...sharp!!!!!! elaine: not being a catholic, i can't see me bothering to campaign for it as such - but it seems to me that the point of the despotism of catholicism is that you particularly don't question it. otherwise you would be, by definition, a protestant, which would definately not get you... tex: why is everyone making fun of me?first off james i think every city in the world was made by HUMANS.second ,no des im not from texas,im from chicago,and hobart what's wrong with ''tex''?actually it stands for my initials,thomas edward xavier.im not bad mouthing london i never even been there.all im... Noah: Great shot, I love the look of neon at night. elaine: sheer cunning? des: well for starters women would have to be priests first i guess elaine: oops, sorry, i meant my invitation to tex. being a resident of east london i see lots and lots and lots of visitors loving this area, traipsing around the markets, going to the clubs etc. no need for the haters to come. let them stay where they are or go... des: im from torontooooo,i meant that someone with the name of tex is probably from dalas texas,TEX-TEXAS! tex: how about africa? elaine: pope is a tiny bit different, tho elaine: mmmmmm neeeeeoooonnnnnn..... des: hillary is like the first,but how many political parties will even put a woman running?not even here in canada,that we are so''liberal''they put women running for prime minister.but i must say that at least our governor general is a woman Peter: anything with trolleys always floats my boat. ahimsa: u wernt in dc cuz u is a republican, was u????? Gabber: Decay indeed. A street car plastered in advertising. The TTC raises our fare despite the fact that they nearly sell out their advertising inventory. Shouldn't the fares be part subsidized by the advertising sales? Opps, what am I thinking? That'd make sense. james lipton from england: yes,i wouldn't be surprised Hobart: I was just reacting to your statement that "women can't be president". "Can't" and "Can't get enough votes" are very different things. I think we will see what the situation is like when Hillary steps up to the plate! des: im from dallas des: yes in most democratic countries they can,but the thing is most of people just won't vote for them. and that is what i don't understand?we already know they have more brains then us,they aren't as corruped as men so why not give them a chance,i guess people still see them... Catherine Penfold-Waxman: Or it could be HBO free local calls...
Hobart: Women actually can be president (here in the U.S.A. at least), technically, though it has never happened. This next election looks hopeful, though. Hobart: I, for one, tend to disregard opinions made by anyone with a name like "Tex". des: EXACLY!!!theese days we can go to the moon,do cloning,we have the internet,but still women cant be pope or president,i guess we have only advance in a physical way,because psicologicaly we are still pretty primitive Hobart: Ice climbing! Wow! That looks very dangerous but also very exciting. Hobart: I think this is your only entry that isn't from N.Y.C! I agree that you may have caught a spacecraft in this shot. Wouldn't DC be a perfect setting for an alien invasion? Lawrence: re: tex, haha, not all of London is as grimey... this is a series of photos from the Eastend which is a great deal less salubrious as the West. Prodominantly working class, wrecked by the Blitz, many a failed housing scheme... think Bronx, but with charm... and thats why... des: who?james or tex?
tex where are you from anyway? des: how do they stay alive inside??? Hobart: They might as well remove all hassle from this process entirely, and install a machine that simply dispenses fresh fish! elaine: yum yum yum! elaine: well, exactly des, and what better way than by having a female pope? elaine: please feel free to stay where you are, then james lipton from england: FOR TEX:
HOW DARE YOU!london is one of ,if not the most beautifull city in the world,ever created by humans.you should come here one day and see for yourself tex: to Lawrence:
i guess we are all used to where we live,no offense but if i lived there i think sooner or later i would of comited suicide. Peter: cool! gotta love the panorama. Peter: hehehehe. ive seen these, too, but down south, where i grew up, in tennessee... pietro: LOL!!!!i can't believe it,no way,lol!! Lawrence: re: tex: "is all of london this grungy and depressing?"
depressing for you, joy for me ;) des: im just spechless...is this for real?????? des: i don't know why but theese pictures remind me of starsky and hutch.
ps:in canada your only homeless by choice Catherine Penfold-Waxman: I'd find it very hard to stick a hook through this top hat wearing fellow. I suppose you aim for the bowtie. kyuss: awesome tomb!wish i had a tomb like that when i died. des: the vatican is just to old school,this is 2006 they need to spice it up a bit elaine: i think so, and also some big ruffs and halo thingies, i think that would be nicer than the pointy style Catherine Penfold-Waxman: great shots. The first one is killer (like the Krays, but photographic) Catherine Penfold-Waxman: Would you go for the red wigs, too? You'd get to sit on a solid gold throne. tex: is all of london this grungy and depressing? tex: to british legend
and of course you british would be there by our side kissing our ass as always
ps:stop bulying the irish delphine: i've studied the irish civilisation in university and then, i decided to come in northern ireland to learn things far from the books and the classrooms, i've been living here for 5 months. i have to say that i'm truly republican and that i hate what the british did to... british legend: all america is, is the new british empire but with completelty different views and will not stay on top for much longer, EVery country hates your views, even some english (not me personally) and i have feelings if there is a new major war it would be america v.s. the... Jamie: i think the alcohol in their blood acts like anti-freeze Jamie: nice! maybe we should rename this site canadanoise.org Editor: More photos of the Hemel Oil Fire jeeff: yeah, i don't know how they do it. Musicman: I'm not sure of the booking policy

Nice little venue with a really warm crowd
Catherine Penfold-Waxman: Very pretty. I'm surprised it's not surrounded by partiers drinking vodka off it. Catherine Penfold-Waxman: That homeless guy looks like he was caught in an urban version of a rabbit trap. -12C? Toronto must be really tough place to sleep on the streets. elaine: ringo is goooood, but hymie is kinda homey elaine: what? elaine4pope?
i would do it in the style of queen elizabeth 1 - lots of lead makeup. i would be iconic elaine: nice! Catherine Penfold-Waxman: Elaine, I applaud your desire to be eaten by Magpies. But please wait until you're very old. You're a good friend to the birds.
Elicar, Is that pigeon on waterskis? Great shot.
Metoo, I know a couple of guys who trap pigeons and sell them in chinatown (3 for $10, which... Ken: Today moring windchill -12C in Toronto. I wish no homeless do harm. Catherine Penfold-Waxman: If I was pope, I'd call myself Ringo. or maybe Hymie. Lawrence: brisk Sunday Morning too Jamie: you still could elaine: i would have made *such* a good pope Jono Cono: on the juice 90: Thanks for the humorous comments, you've "literally" tied those photos together. Jono Cono: Pure ghetto... on the juice 90: sponsered by our good friends at american express.god bless america. on the juice 90: as waxman would say "i love what your doing with your f stop". now i got the street number butt what was the street name,did you get the butt refrence?
love the italian eskimo art,what did that cost us.red cars and green toters,what a concept.open doors and coffee stores.wake up and... on the juice 90: the land of oz is a very funny place where everyone wheres a funny funny face,all the streets are paved with gold n no one ever grows old in that funny place called the land of oz.and thats what i have to say about pull box's.take that waxman..........
Cyberia: That white bubble building, isn't that near davie/robson? or Howe/Robson?
great photos, makes me miss the rain. (but not 30+ straight days of rain :) ) on the juice 90: is anybody doing anything about the fight against crime.i live in a high crime area and things have to change. its time we stood up and put a stop to the madness.i dont no what these photos have to do with this epademic but my hat is off to you... Elliot: Thanks Jeeff, and no im not equating the homeless people as dirt. Rather their living conditions... anon (85-64-52-52.barak-online.net): Yes.. I agree ..8 90mil's hcl: great shot,makes me happy to be alive.keep up the good work. schatbot mission: kilgore, i wouldn't call toronto a paridise. At least not in the last hundred years. As far as URBAN decay, i dont see where it is. In terms of world decay I'd say good shot. jed: it will be difficult to beat that one. jed: This 18 footer is conveniently located on a quiet tree lined block in Central Harlem, clean façade and partily renovated all it needs to complete is boiler, floors and rear windows. Qwner will complete or purchase as is. Close to shopping on 125th Street, State Office Building and 2 block... jeeff: i hope you're not equating homeless people with dirt. otherwise, nice photos. the car in #1 looks like it's posing. jed: hip-hop metal music. it rolls over ambiguous space. Citynoise. a hand grasps the edge of something, perhaps at the zoo? a second hand zoo. in the background, some sounds of people screaming and zombies on the rampage. joey: as i remember, canadian, model car names are pretty exotic. different from their american counterparts. the photos? yes, grimy. grime as a consequence of society. joey: seeing is believing, right. i mean the noisy photo. it's the lying around snow that makes the most city noise. jeeff: that's a streetlight, not the moon. if 'under the hood' means what camera, i used to use a sony dsc-p100, but since that broke i've been using hool's spare canon 10d. Elicar: This pigeon is by her lonesome.
joey: i know, it's boring. actually the tress hide the urban decay. the trees are a decoy for the decay just down the road. the bird frm cabg twn: incredible shot of the full moon in that alley shot.hey jeeff what are you running under the hood the bird frm cabg twn: thats no poodle, thats my wife. Jason,whats the gay village got to do with the price of dr.ballards on seventh avenue...and another thing wendell or weeble just wondering what your running under the hood....nice shot Wedell. the bird frm cabg twn: is that not the back door to ho lee chow bbq emporium.could i get a half a pound of some young dog and two coca-colas........ howard stern: you wanna talk decay, what about liz taylor's tits?
