jeeff: maybe i'll grab my hockey stick and rubber boots and go practice some civic disobedience.

in response to No Hockey Playing Allowed

Biff: This must be the home rink of the Mighty Ducks...

jeeff: funny you mention places of worship, another snare tag was spotted on the sign of the neighbourhood's recently-closed church.

in response to Respect in River Park

Peter: yeah, thats what i thought... in which case, i think: a) this was probably done by a bored lower-middleclass white guy in his late teens who cant find anywhere better to get up than the sign to his community, and out of frustration, figured hed tag up the sign. b) he is...

in response to Respect in River Park

jeeff: its a bunch of slightly shabby riverside apartments (like townhouses).

elaine: the source of our thames is a muddy field somewhere here: www.thamespilot.org.uk/ixbin/hix . . . _thameshead&s=OQjUtR4WVi3 but beyond that initial confusion nothing like as complex as the tributaries that make up the source of yours

in response to Graffiti in the Other London

EvilGentleman: Well, as of midnight this morning, the ashtrays were pulled out of the bars and smoking is no longer permitted. Due to the late hour, it was hard to determine if the smoke is filling up the sidewalks or not, but there were definitely a lot of barflys on the...

in response to Montreal Goes Non-Smoking: Good or Bad?

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: sorry. that was mean and nasty. I'll go and be inhumane to myself now. sorry.

in response to Decapitated Bird (Warning: Yes, Really)

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: I think those are its lungs hanging out. Unless it's a robin.

in response to Decapitated Bird (Warning: Yes, Really)

Peter: is "river park" an actual park, or is it (as it appears to be from the style of signage) some sort of suburban subdivision?

in response to Respect in River Park

jeeff: elaine: from www.chrs.ca/Rivers/Thames/Thames_e.htm chia: i think the stairs at the back of our house are about to collapse but they're only wood. detail from #3:

in response to School Busses

elaine: it's like the proverbial smoking gun...

in response to Tumbleweed Weave

elaine: strange thing to collect. gives me a bit of the shivers though, it reminds me of pictures of buses parked up in a lot while new orleans drowned.

in response to School Busses

Peter: photos of the same building, almost a year later... no one touched the sane piece, and rightfully so:

in response to Coney Island Low

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: Maybe the mouse hung itself with the hair extension.

in response to Tumbleweed Weave

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: oh so true, too.

in response to Wet Pain

elaine: great snag.

in response to Wet Pain

elaine: nice squished mouse, sets off the hair lovely. it must be lovely living in new york, home of shedding hair. (are there similarly lost nail extensions or are they glued on too tight?)

in response to Tumbleweed Weave

anon (wnpgmb01dc2-25-214.dynamic.mts.net): Attention Smoking Cessation Re: Smokers Edge There is no question more Canadians are anxious to quit smoking as a result of anti-smoking regulations and by-law’s in effect throughout Canada. Many smokers who once thought about quitting are getting serious this time. With the price of cigarettes, the difficulty finding a place to...

MACHE: There goes my hero...

in response to Dr. Sex Graffiti

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: Great shot! I think I see a vampire inthe shadows.

in response to Lower World No. 1

elaine: what would be really cool would be if i could get one way glass and nest boxes, now that would be fab. some of the birds are messy eaters (yes, i mean you, green finches) but they are not very wasteful and i think that they would not be keen to...

in response to Fledgling Greenfinches

kc: Yeah, that rat issue I imagine would be more about the shells falling to the ground below...although rats and mice don't really seem to follow the chipmunk/squirrel predilection for seed eating--or hiding! Used to have a feeder upstate, and I once found a boot in an upstairs closet filled with...

in response to Fledgling Greenfinches

elaine: the plans look like they are going to dwarf the tower. shame on them.

in response to Ivy Tower

jeeff: really nice lighting. i've tried to take photos down some similar tunnels and found it pretty difficult to capture the mood.

in response to Lower World No. 1

rob: I was watering my grass and reeling my hose in and heard sound in the branches, at first I thought it was the leaves moving from the woater hitting them or rats, since the sound was not going away it seemed to be getting closer and closer so I just...

buddah: grafitti is not a crime it is art of a great form. theres nothing wrong with someone wrighting there name on a wall.LEGALIZE GRAFITI - THE WRIGHTING ON THE WALL...

in response to Miami Youth Faces \'Serious Jail Time\':

Chris Erb: That's a really neat photo. Did you get any more pictures from inside the tunnel? It's nice to see new people here. I've only been using the site for about a month and a half and love it. I'm sure you will too.

KP Bong: The Dark is certainly worth checking out. Here's another post about him: http://www.six04.net/vancouver/?p=67#more-67 and his Flickr page: http://www.flickr.com/photos/thedark/ If you're in Vancouver, he's really worth looking for.

in response to Coney Memorial

elaine: ps. tyfoid kid, that kitty would definitely be more than a deterrent, i can see those claws itching to get some killa action.

in response to Fledgling Greenfinches

elaine: i am on the 4th floor, and although rats can climb, i don't know that they would come up specially. i did see a squirrel on the roof of the opposite building once, but i think that was a bit of a fluke - i don't know if even he...
