in response to Night Walk 3

chiamattt: Jack, it's not like the United States is going to 'give' the beef to Korea for free. In previous years (prior to 1994, i think) the Korean market was worth a little more than 3 Billion dollars. In addition, the Korean market purchases parts of the cow that Americans and...

Nobody: Yea, good for you Noyser, getting up in a nowhere town in New fucking Mexico where no one cares. Third tier city, minor, minor, minor league bomber... Get yourself in check, son. You ain't nothing in the big picture. Nobody's even heard of you outside of your neighborhood I bet.

in response to Albuquerque Graffiti Flood

colavitos ghost: there's a "joseph m. gallagher middle school" in my neighborhood that is home to a particularly humorous piece of partial signage. the last two letters of the first name have fallen, leaving the interesting puerto rican/irish combination: "jose m. gallagher middle school".

in response to El R Restau

EvilGentleman: I remember as a child in 1980, sitting in an Ocala, Florida parking lot with my dad while my mother shopped in a _HOPPING ___TER. We have made random "hopping ter" jokes ever since. And Jamie is right. Guess I better add a partial signage tag to the comments in order to...

in response to El R Restau

Katrin: Hey - Funny: my journey started with reading stuff about Leftover Crack, squatting and mole people while actually I should have prepared a talk about Billy Wilder and Some Like It Hot. Well, anyway, finally I found your photos and I have to say that they are amazing! Really fascinating!...

oevre: Q: If you were driving down seventeenth and you realized you had a million dollars in your backpack, which you didn't realize you had, and you are seventeen years old, would you plan on spending your life in Hutchinson, Kansas?

in response to America\'s Most Boring Towns: 10

in response to Sane Smith: Puttin' the Green in Greenpoint

Dave Moore: Does anyone remember Marie Tighe from Cadishead or Linda Bunting from Irlam. Recall a lot of good nights spent at the Catholic Club and the White Horse.

in response to These Things No Longer Exist

eccles: That sure sounds nice, Jack, but who will pay for such an effort? Because I guarantee that the American beef industry is going to pursue profit over domestic philanthropy any day of the week. It's the capitalist way, and after all, isn't that what made America "great"?

in response to Anti-US Beef/2MB Protests

Peter: you have a point, though youd be surprised how many anal-themed photos ive snapped around canal street... enough to make a series, thats for sure, hahaha...

in response to El R Restau

Jamie: OMGWMDBBQ!

in response to Midnight over Manhattan

Jamie: I think you'll find it hard to top 'anal jewelry', so to speak.

in response to El R Restau

jack: great shot peter

in response to Midnight over Manhattan

jack: screw 'em, lets give the beef away to the poor people and welfare cases we have here, lets feed our country first and take care of Americans first.

in response to Anti-US Beef/2MB Protests

eccles: OMG aliens!

in response to Midnight over Manhattan

Dave Moore: Stumbled on the site while attempting to get images of King Street in Stretford from the 60's and 70's. Excellent images. Brought back memories from when I worked near to Barton Bridge (Manchester Oil Refinery) in the mid sixties. Also remember the power station from when I used to walk...

in response to Barton Power Station

Nexus: It's the phantom of Belarussian spy satellite BelKA :)

in response to Midnight over Manhattan

Peter: hahahaha, perhaps inadvertently so! hmm, now ill have to keep my eyes peeled for more...

in response to El R Restau

Jamie: Peter, are you starting a partial signage series?

in response to El R Restau

Emily: Wow. These are amazing and beautiful. The six shafts of light was my favorite, but they were all so great. Thanks for sharing these.

in response to The Freedom Tunnel

Karlo: That really was a moving story sharon. Im so glad that you can finally put your anger to rest,a feeling that only serves to destroy the self. I fully believe that your son Karl would want you to live your life as a tribute to his.Smile at the thought of his face,laugh...

in response to Ulster Young Militants: Shankhill

Peter: thirded on the "ghost town" photos. i think thats a quorum, zagg. on another note, i went to read the wiki on diphtheria, out of curiosity... and i literally shuddered when i got to the part about "suffocating due to the membrane sheath that grows over and obstructs airways"...

in response to An Epidemic of Diphtheria

Peter: i spy the high line... nice finds. i like the levitating rollers up there that appear to have been done from a no longer existing rooftop... the characters on the ground have piqued my curiosity, too... any closeups of them?

in response to Irak Crew

Peter: it seems pretty obvious to me that this is, more or less, more about the state of the korean beef industry than the "health" of the consumers... especially when the korean government seems to freeze trading in the beef market during and after major protests to prevent heavy fluctuations... looks...

in response to Anti-US Beef/2MB Protests

Peter: that escalator trompe loeil looks awesome... id love to see more of it, for sure, if you go back with your camera...

in response to Optical SF

Peter: i was amused by some of jennifer's more nebulous comments, like "everyday street gang attacks", "why should there be only one way to be? We have so many ways" and "Latin people usually tend to care more about looks and good food, why shouldn't USA-ans follow?" hahahaha. agreed with eg and...

in response to Red Light District

Jamie: It's a recurring theme here. Someone posts a bunch of photos, or maybe even just one photo, from a particular place which don't paint a rose-tinted picture of that place and you can guarantee someone will chime in with the classic "these photos are not representative of [insert city here]"...

in response to Red Light District

remember 1966: trying to piece together deatils of a memeory. kid was killed in mid to late 60's when he was running thru the sewers that were being worked on around troutman. apparently he drowned. Does anybody remember this. let me know..

in response to My House in Bushwick

EvilGentleman: Jennifer, you must be unfamiliar with this site to post comments such as you did above. If you browse CE's other articles, which you can do by clicking on his name just under the main title bar of this article, you will notice numerous articles covering a vast area of...

in response to Red Light District

EvilGentleman: We really missed a good opportunity to do an urbex of this site before they tore it down.

zagg: It is time to change it to Rufus Wainwright, I say!

in response to Rufus Rockhead Street

Peter: is that a lyric from bon jovi's "bad medicine"? great. now im going to have that shit stuck in my head all night.

in response to Church Fire in St-Henri

Satanic Jesus: Thats what you get for falling in love.

in response to Church Fire in St-Henri

EvilGentleman: This was one of the more educational posts that I have done, at least in the sense that I learned a lot from doing this post. When I initially shot the photos, I was focused on how funny the name sounded to my ears. I had assumed that it was named...

in response to Rufus Rockhead Street

EvilGentleman: It's all gone now, just a giant hole in the ground. The Satanic Jesus has been removed and/or destroyed.

in response to Church Fire in St-Henri

chiamattt: Heh, yeah I wrote about the smokes on my bolog. smokehard.com/2008/whats-the-real-beef

JoeyD: Thanks jack! it was perhaps the most erie light ive even seen cast...like wearing a pair of brown tinted shades and not being able to take them off....this photo was taken just before 6pm...normally full sun

in response to Smoke Sky

Shayleia: What wonderfully vivid imagery . . . thanks for sharing your views of NYC.

in response to Staten Island Views

Shayleia: Thank you for sharing such a hauntingly beautiful journey. I have been in or through New York City a few times and I have always marvelled at the degrees of sheer talent that is depicted in some of the graffiti I have seen. Capturing the graffiti and art...

zagg: I like the fact that the girl in photograph #2 has a pack of Marlboro cigs in her pocket. Boo US Beef! YAY US Tobacco! --- zagg, the vegetarian who is a descendant of Canadian tobacco farmers :D

in response to Anti-US Beef/2MB Protests

luna park: these were all snapped through a hole in the construction fence. the area under the scaffolding where i was standing smelled pretty awful and had recently been baited with rat poison, so i didn't linger long. looks like there's some weird, almost asian looking roller graffiti on the floor, which...

in response to Irak Crew

Mark Brannan: Hi Chris, I remember you and Steff and that bleached hair down the middle that you had . We were so trendy then wasn't we lol. I left gardners and worked as a sales rep. I divorced and remarried and now live in the States.It is funny how we all love...

in response to Irlam, Manchester

Ruth: So many bitter people. I grew up in Hutch and would not take the experience for anything in the world. I am sure it has gotten much worse in every town across the nation with drugs, more people, illegals, etc. Try to make it better instead of complaining.
