Previous Day :: Next Dayjack: 18-when you go to your car and you cant find it and you swear that you parked it right over there and you ask someone what happened and they tell you they just towed away a bunch of cars. Catherine Penfold-Waxman: Great links. It's the opposite of 101 unuseless Japanese inventions. chiamattt: Your South Asia pics are really nice. sine: dayumn! someone done snatched out yo weave! chiamattt: oh yeah! when you park, you MUST put your handphone number on the dash, so that someone can call you to come move your car. If you don't the police spend 3 hours screaming your plate number through a loudspeaker before they either give up and move on, tow it,... chiamattt: There are only three parking methods in Seoul. If the above 17 piss you off, you'd be really pissed here.
1 - valet
2 - anywhere there is space (including sidewalks)
3 - "puzzle parking" (park bumper to bumper and leave car in neutral. people push your car out of the way to... nkdlife: You forgot my city!!!!!!!!!. Miami! AfexOneTHC:
The Hard Core
chiamattt: A really cool Moto I saw in Tokyo were the delivery ones. They had springs on the food container holder so that your food didn't get all mangled on the drive to your apartment. They were rad. No springs in Korea. Poor delivery food. AfexOneTHC: BigUps to all true graff heads putting it down, wherever they may be. spygirl_t: Urban Ghost: Were you able to figure out what the reason for this was? spygirl_t: i live around the corner and I'm bad for jaywalking. I do it everyday! I like to Revolt! But I've never been questioned, much less pinned againt a cop car for it. Brad: 40 - Cars that you see waiting at a stop sign up the road that suddenly decide to cut you off even though there are no other cars in front or back. This happens alot on my way to work at 5:30AM. spygirl_t: I've had that oevrwhelming feeling of loss, sorrow and pain when in Cambodia, particularily when walking through the killing fields. It was a very overwhelming experience... tears and all. Strange though, as Cambodia is an amazing place, where one can fully understand the beauty of life and of culture. ... EvilGentleman: 17 - People who have realized the highway code does not apply to parking lots, and drive like maniacs as a result Get out of your car, buddy.: Toronto must be a tale of two cities. If you live in the inner city, it fits like a comfortable old shoe. There are few places in the world that can boast such a high quality of life. It is not Paris, and that is a great... Catherine Penfold-Waxman: A very CityNoise post. Fantastic pictures of places I'd love to go. Thanks a bunch for your insight. Laura : I loved this post. Thankx! Catherine Penfold-Waxman: Nice! I love typefaces. That "Rex cole" is lovely. Clean, clear, classic. Catherine Penfold-Waxman: They may actually have fruitcake inside, possibly with a very thin layer of marzipan for extra moisture. If so, than they may be more like Christmas cake. maybe the "brick' is gingerbread. When you go back Tyfoid, cut yourself a slice and let me know. Laura : Ah Peter, we were on the same page right there at the same time :) Laura : 12) Alternate side parking that makes me move my car an hour into the workday.
13) Bogus parking tickets that you have to take time out of your life to protest.
14) Irritated drivers who decide to key or vanadalize your car because you "took my spot!", despite following all... eGer one - BUMS Crew - uSouls: What's going on! I haven't been up in a while but I am still doin my thing in black books. Eger, Glok BUMS crew and Universal Souls. Been at that shit since 1995. My kid will be bombing someday.. muhahahaha Mike: Where is Las Vegas? It's skyline is very cool esp. at night. EvilGentleman: I have to relearn my parallel parking skills. I was in the Arctic for so long, I can barely remember what pavement is, never mind parallel parking Peter: 12) alternate side parking regulations
Peter: 11) nice parking jobs Meryddian: I can't believe the mono-level Sao Paolo skyline made this list while cities like San Francisco and Las Vegas did not...
Sammy: Tampa:
Franny Wentzel:
One of the more compelling skylines in the small city catagory is the city of Albany, New York. Until the 1960s there were only a couple building over 20 storeys tall but with the construction of the Nelson A Rockefeller Empire State Plaza with its quartet of 20 storey agency... Tyfoid Kid: That's exactly what they are!! I just couldn't put my finger on it. EvilGentleman: Elicar, I honestly tried to do the job on your brother, but he doubled your bid. What was I to do? Sorry, I will try to do better next time.
PS- Check your brakes. SadStateOfAffairs: Rich - come back soon - a lot has changed since '94 - the park has been renovated, boathouse etc...the founders of the Kings still live in the hood but they have gotten older too. It is tough to gang bang in your 50's - lots of buildings for sale... Elicar: Why do I get an eery feeling on this full moon? Is there a wolf howling somewhere?
Very nice! Elicar: Do they sell incents and scarff too? alisson: iai galer tudo começou ne um pulo depois viciei agora le parkour nao sai da minha cabeça.ah eu ja fiz ate um grupo aqui na minha cidade agente se joga mesmo.olha quem quiser mim adds no msn para agente trocarmos umas ideias é so mim adds falou.......

King Saint Ides
N I C crew
Newark Illtown Connect anon (nytgate05.nytimes.com): I been back and forth between E O and Newark in the early 80's. No matter if you live on N. Maple or Renshaw...if you're from Nutley or some shit like that...If they hear you're from EO...It all gets classified as the slums anyway. That's like saying "I... spygirl_t: A'la: personally I think that Paris has a beautiful skyline. joeblow: i live in Toronto too and I have to agree. Paris might be an older city but the French have a good understanding regarding the quality of life. Paris has great transit system, lovely parks.. so the city was orginally built in the shape of a snail and you can't... MartinTheNext: Wow people thats great! Thanx you all for all those pictures, they are amazing! Hobart: More Israel, please! Hobart: I hereby nominate London for a second-tier Honorable Mention due simply to the fact that its skyline contains the Gherkin building!
jenna: I live in Toronto and I have been fortunate to travel a fair bit. I have to say that desipte my love of Toronto ... the urban planning here is horrible. We have nice cityscape... but try getting home in rush hour? Traffic is bad and getting worse as they... GGP: great, horrifying shots. i read the other day that cigarette butts do not biodegrade! a'la: spygirl_t: i think this had more to do with the skyline, per se, than the character of the cities in question... :-) spygirl_t: What happened to Paris the city of lights... albeit an old city, it is a marvel to look at and to explore. BEEFYONER: YO NET ONE 156 KRT (ELLIS G)..... ALSO PEEP DIS!
spygirl_t: We're crazy if we think that trash we throw out will melt like the snow in spring time. It's disgusting... but an unfortunate reality in this big city. a'la: def not in the "top 15" of the whole world, but def worth reppin here:
sf, ca:
elaine:
Gary Nickerson: Doesn't surprise me one bit! elaine: sexual overtones?
elaine: i like the look of that bobbly thing in dallas David:
Rio de Janeiro, I feel, is also due an honorable mention. Although its majesty is due less to the buildings and more to the landscape, the skyline is nonetheless beautiful. David: I can hardly believe that picture of Shanghai isn't a fabrication.
Great post. David: www.fixedgeargallery.com/article . . . ina/EvanMarks.htm#image_7
It seems to be a trend in Asian countries.
These pics are from China. Catherine Penfold-Waxman: Twin wedding cakes with hard icing. Delicious. Catherine Penfold-Waxman: Nice dogfest. Catherine Penfold-Waxman: South Korea in the house! I love how vehicles are revamped to be more useful. Jamie: let down your hair Jamie: he has a posse Catherine Penfold-Waxman: My brother didn't lose himself to the East River or the Empire State during his trip.
I'm sorry, Elicar, I don't think that I can take out a whole family. Not since I saw Saving Private Ryan, anyway.
Jack, I would be honored if you would call me Cat. just another reader..: that picture is stunning. the sky is so blue. it's amazing. congrats! jack: thx evil, as my years flew by me i realized how much of life changed. in some cases the change was not all that good. so i decided to put the changes together. definitely more to come. elaine: nice. i like a demolition anon (x2-018.duke-energy.com): can anyone give me any information on flatbush garden apartments chiamattt: I think this series is really cool. vandal eyes: skert came thru PARIS and got up.

EvilGentleman: I think the items the businessmen are holding are cellphones or possibly PDA's Biff: I found my comb, and it's amazing what some friends will do for you!
Biff
She actually has seqinned ruby slippers... kat: CHILDHOOD MEMORIES! At my niece's first birthday my nephew took his loot bag, stumbled into a corner, and proceeded to rip the bag open piece by piece, scowling at everyone who dared to come near. This kid reminds me a lot of him... I love it! kat: Those bring me back! There's an annual kite festival at the park near my house and I used to run over to my friend's apartment and we'd watch from her balcony...until I got old enough to bike to the park with friends and we'd all stand there staring up... antimorph: Hahahaha! NICE. antimorph: WOW COOL! antimorph: FUN ENTRY! antimorph: Hahahaha. nice! antimorph: WOW these photos are amazingly cool! EvilGentleman: One person in Kangirsujuaq I miss very much is Pere (Father) Dion, the Sulpican priest who runs the Catholic mission there. He is presently in his late 70's and extremely computer literate. He always has the latest technology, and is very willing to help others with computer skills. The only...
