Previous Day :: Next Day

Ashamed of all!!: I just want to say that everyhting I have read here, has made me very ashamed.. I'm glad that they are imporving Humboldt Park, weather its through whites moving in or not.. Because all the ignorance I have seen on this site shows what my daughter has to look...

in response to Humboldt Park

GOYA: i "shopped" yer moms. YO SEKTO!

in response to Goya on Truck

elaine: take your camphone with you into the next dream.

in response to le parkour: london waterloo jam

elaine: harr. that wins. i love the laughter lines on tapface

in response to robot building

Peter: thank god for streetlights.

in response to Dr. Sex & DAYS

Peter: well, im assuming they were probably from chicken wings, the cafeteria's #1 seller, heh. still, the idea of a bird eating a bird, etc...

in response to Cannibals!

josh leaf: pretty nice for bein a camera fone aand in the dark

GGP: my first haircutter, when I was a kid, was named Nick, but we called him "Mr. Nick."

in response to The Hair Shop

terry: i got my hair cut there! the hair dresser cut her finger. my hair was covered in blood lol

in response to The Hair Shop

Peter: also: just poked around online a bit and found this similar-looking jeep:

in response to Orange Truck

Peter: looks like blue undercoating coming out of under the orange in some of those shots.

in response to Orange Truck

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: Thanks, Peter. If you scroll down and just look at the bottom of the picture, it's like three overlapping pages of a magazine. The photos I've posted so far may not seem to be candid, but they are from my day to day. I just spend a lot of time...

in response to Slice of Grand Central

kc: very nice...

in response to Sunrise in Brooklyn

kc: I found myself wandering around in the Willys Jeeps sites, since I never knew they existed. I think you can date it from the color--which looks like it might be called Transport Yellow? Like the early/mid 50s?? Anyhow, sometimes they are for sale, for around $7000....altho I suspect that depends...

in response to Orange Truck

GGP: kind of wiley e. coyote like, I might add. wow. everything is morphing into everything else--!

in response to robot building

Peter: aah! that rules! i love how the column comes up between the brick building and the glass building, and how the statues just seem to lap over the brock building. very pretty. you did well with this one...

in response to Slice of Grand Central

Peter: bathroom sink robot-face:

in response to robot building

Peter: too much.

in response to Albuquerque Graffiti Flood

Peter: oh, duh... i knew that, of course, just commenting faster than i could think ;)

in response to Subway Roulette

GGP: those first 3 shots are like being in the throat of a whale. great!

in response to The ~old~ BMT Stillwell Ave Terminal

Balloonhedz: theyre still assigned to the F. Minus the blue stripe (cheaper that way) theyve been renumbered, had different controls put in, probably overhauled at some point since theyre almost 30 years old now. The brakes used to make a distinctive whistling sound when they were released.

in response to The ~old~ BMT Stillwell Ave Terminal

jose paredes: how much would it cost for painting over the graffiti each year

in response to Albuquerque Graffiti Flood

Balloonhedz: um...actually its LIRR ;-)

in response to Subway Roulette

Balloonhedz: I used to see them downtown once in a while too..I think they were ranting about Y2K. I havent seen them around in a while, thought maybe theyd quit or something. Theyre entertaining at the very least if you remember not to take them seriously.

in response to purveyors of prophecy

Peter: its fun to find where the patters from the molds repeat in permastone facades. especially if it sa large building. cause the molds are usually only like 6x8' at the largest, heh.

in response to Orange Truck

GGP: it sure looks pretty perma. unfortunately, it's also ugla.

in response to Orange Truck

mohawkwarrior18: native 4 life baby!

in response to Xmas Eve End-2-Ends

Peter: C-Town got restocked last night! Check it out: the stinky smoked whitefish again... ...and of course some chav brew for jamie ;)

in response to Empty Grocery

Peter: lol, ian, whats that?

in response to Empty Grocery

Peter: heh. thats a permastone wall. looks like sandstone (sort of) but is man-made. alot of brownstones that were renovated in the fiscal crisis of the 70s-80s were faced in cheap permastone as opposed to terra cotta or real sandstone, as they would have been originally. www.pearlpaint.com/shop~ocID~299 . . . ~2961~categoryID~2956.htm

in response to Orange Truck

Peter: its all some crazy power-game, yo.

in response to uw campus

Peter: who said it did?

in response to localized textures

Peter: im so gonna get up in their face for some photos next time i see em...

in response to purveyors of prophecy

Peter: yep, there seem to be two trains of thought on this matter: 1) getting up 2) putting up something that looks good see the "fuck neck face" entry for more of this why do there seem to be so few folks who can do both... simultaneously?

in response to Leeto & Beef

Peter: hahahaha, word. i think ive done most of those thigns already today. gotta second the hating schoolkids on the train, and the pizza/graf spots. and after yesterday's rain, our lobby is paper mache'd with freaking menus and flyers.

in response to The Lost Rules of Living in NYC:

Peter: i had a dream the other night that sine and i were walking down by the river, and passed a bunch of guys doing tons of crazy parkour moves. i turned to her and said, "dude, we totally have to get some shots of this for citynoise". lol!

in response to le parkour: london waterloo jam

colavito's ghost: That "leeto" tag is pretty shitty. I'm really bothered by graf artists that believe the height of the art is "being everywhere". Throwing your name up doesn't make one gangsta. Show me something nice, leeto, or go away.

in response to Leeto & Beef

J.O.P: Hey Guys ! this is great stuff... I like to get into it properly but can't find a place near my area. I live in Woking (near Guilford) if u know of a place where Pk is practice, please let us know!!! Cheeers.

in response to le parkour: london waterloo jam

jeeff: really cool, i always wondered about these guys. great article & thread.

in response to The Lost Rules of Living in NYC:
