Previous Day :: Next Day

jack: two months ago a young man and his charming girlfriend were sitting in a car parked near a park. the news was on the radio and a police dispatch was made for the lookout of an excaped killer. he would dismember lovely young girls. he was noted for...

in response to into the deep

jack: it looks like an aloe plant

in response to Through the Rear Window

jack: the photo of the purse shows an area of stones circular. it used to be a water fountain where people would pile up and i mean pile up on each other on a sweltering day to get some water.

in response to Coney Island Low

eker(Russia): Its real OLD SCOOL!I like it!

in response to enjoy citynoise

GGP: good video! I liked the sound-scape, too.

in response to into the deep

GGP: I love these guys. Seen them around over the years. Nice to have them here.

elaine: woo hoo! see the video! roll up roll up!!!

in response to into the deep

elaine: oh jeeff for lord!

in response to enjoy citynoise

jeeff: yeah hm, i sent it to peter. i'll post it soon. i'm feeling shy.

in response to enjoy citynoise

Marilyn-TIHM: said...Tokyo Garden, Snoqualmie Pass, and lots of laughs. From SeaTac to JFK...making moves that last. what up OZERO.

in response to Graf Trux 8: NYC

elaine: cor, thanks for that

in response to City Escape and Escapade

elaine: yeah, i like it, it made me laugh. i like the livejournals. they even had a group you could join on 7/7 which only had actual breaking news, which meant you didn't have to watch the repetetive scrolling misery on news 24 to get updates on travel issues and updates...

in response to Pining Away

elaine: come now, GGP, you know what to do! isle of dogs and, aw, poor robotbuilding...

in response to dlr train ride

GGP: hilarious link, elaine.

in response to Pining Away

elaine: ha ha - public health standards fall to 'icky' - reminds me of this www.livejournal.com/community/br . . . its_americans/671684.html

in response to Pining Away

GGP: what's the story with the isle of dogs? that white building in the first shot is like a robot toothache. and I love the sheening, keening silver slivers in the last shot.

in response to dlr train ride

GGP: just to beat this dead (crashed) horse (car) a bit further, I kind of freaked when Peter said in his crash post that the paramedics gloves were sitting by the driver's seat. If used and then removed and left there, we're talking icky public health practice, to say the least!...

in response to Pining Away

elaine: yeah, jeeff, spill!

in response to enjoy citynoise

GGP: thank you for enlightening me. It's high time I knew about GMT!!

in response to Chained Lion

jamie: jeeff: i'd like to see your design

in response to enjoy citynoise

Jamie: chip vans!

in response to Lunch Truck

elaine: i made a movie of that view, the lamps were slowly swaying. tick. tock. tick. tock.... and here's another;

in response to Chained Lion

elaine: you bet i will. i took some photos when i went to greenwich, but not what i wanted for a posting, and i didn't go up the hill to where i know the line is, that day. it had been a while since i had been to greenwich, and i...

in response to Chained Lion

elaine: it does seem a little sloppy. perhaps some other crimes could be left lying about outside - or just, you know, stuff of theirs - traffic cones, i dunno. i am just visualising a big mass of police junk

in response to Pining Away

Peter: elaine: please take photos of the brass line! :)

in response to Chained Lion

elaine: ja ja. greenwich mean time, and i have been there and there is a brass line in the road so you can have a foot in one time and a foot in another, though it doesn't 'work' in that you don't instantly become a time traveller as such. i am...

in response to Chained Lion

Peter: ggp: i agree. you think after the crashed car got tagged up theyd rethink its location. such a busy intersection, too! wonder if the graf will make it into any evidence photos? now that would be a hoot.

in response to Pining Away

Peter: greenwich mean time?

in response to Chained Lion

GGP: i hear you about "professional"--but must there be dead and dying vehicles with smashed windows right at the entrance of the building? it would be nice if they would clean up their front lawn. ;)

in response to Pining Away

GGP: what is GMT, anyway? General Mandatory Time? Generic Mediocre Time? Gentle Mental Tempo? Please advise.

in response to Chained Lion

Peter: i think that "professional" is a bit of a reach, when describing the nypd, heh. which is funny, cause its part of their motto...

in response to Pining Away

elaine: it could be worse, the polis could look really professional

in response to Pining Away

GGP: it's crazy! I feel like Pet Bird is taunting us!

in response to Pining Away

Peter: i dunno! i just think its hilarious that it has a Pet Bird tag on it, lol...

in response to Pining Away

GGP: yep, that is the self-same car. I hadn't seen your post. How long are they going to leave the evidence just laying around in front of the police station? doesn't look too...professional.

in response to Pining Away

elaine: aha. brooklyn is a forest where you little creatures live!

in response to Pining Away

Peter: nice series!! and, isnt that the infamous crashed car?

in response to Pining Away

Guy: I don't get why people from west coast get mad about their being east coast bloods and crips when theres bloods and crips down south too so I don't see a big deal.

in response to Pining Away

grimreaper3248: Not from that area but is it the old Boiler house from the original water well that fed the park before city water? www.prospectpark.org/hist/archiv . . . ell_and_boiler_house.html Second guess would be a Restroom. High windows would lend well to a restroom. I cant find Empire on this map but I assume its down near Ocean. www.prospectpark.org/imgs/map/mapsect09.gif Is it...

in response to Abandoned Structure, Prospect Park

elaine: regent's park is big, well looked after, wide avenues, trees, roses, a boating lake. a zoo, a canal, and it's west central london, so as far as i am concerned it may as well be another city... but i have been there a number of times. a pelican asked me...

in response to 14.00 Train. Time to kill

elaine: i am following the principle of - the safest place in the world is the last place to be bombed, and am off down the other end of hackney rd tonight to give a reading at a film/spoken word night in columbia rd. so bollocks to the fearmongers, what else...

in response to Every Other Thursday

elaine: i know DJ went the pilot for preference, but i have always been drawn back to the brit. they do such good fish and chips, and a good pint of guinness, my ale of choice, and the puddings are fantastic, though i rarely got as far as pudding without bursting...

in response to dungeness 1998

Peter Howarth: I lived in nearby GREATSTONE-ON-SEA in 2000.I wwnt every week to the hut that sold all manner of smoked fish.I also visited the local hostelry(Brittania)for an excellent pint and occasionally superb fish and chips

in response to dungeness 1998

Jamie: I particularly liked this part: ##"I saw an Asian guy run onto the train hotly pursued by three plain-clothes police officers. One of them was carrying a black handgun - it looked like an automatic - they pushed him to the floor, bundled on top of him and unloaded five shots...

in response to Every Other Thursday

Jamie: A man has been shot at Stockwell Tube station by armed police officers. Passenger Mark Whitby told BBC News he had seen an Asian man shot five times by "plain-clothes police officers" with a handgun. read more: news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/4706787.stm

in response to Humboldt Park

GGP: me too, peter, like photographing endangered species before they're gone. it all feels so borderline, about-to-be-past-tense over there. the details cry out to be captured.

in response to Brooklyn Sweat

GGP: if wm. burroughs did freehand graf from beyond the grave, mayhap.....

in response to freehand graf

GGP: joey, you devil--it's only Thursday! You're jumping the gun. This see-no-evil lion is a poignant beauty, on a Friday the 22nd or a Thursday the 21st. Timeless, in any zone.

in response to Chained Lion

joey: nothing wrong with the b&w ants-eye view of the tree either. oh wait, even better there's a person in that photo with a dog. stranger than first seen. hidden dimensions. like the soaring bird. but is the person becoming a tree, or the tree becoming a person. i'm...
