susannah: The man she loves isn't fooled by her passive expressions. He perceives the slight difference between trust and disinterest. The man she loves expects her to make a decision that she cannot bear. He refuses to touch her until she makes a choice. In many ways she is...

in response to Rainy Days and Mondays

Susannah: What - no hate mail? Isn't the double standard operational in these parts? What about this - three to four times a week the wife contemplates suicide, only to realize each time, as if for the first time, that if she was capable of that kind of selfishness she wouldn't...

GGP: that looks like some very acidic rain! the shot's a great one.

in response to After the Rain

Scott: Now having watched this construction project for the past 16 or 17 years, I can tell you that this is the 'mission' of a devoted individual. Whatever you think about Jim Bishop the man (really doesn't matter to him) is not important. His work will stand, probably for...

Boggy: Further down 86th Street there was another theater at the corner of 86th Street and 20th Avenue. I wasn't living in the area when they closed it up, but I got a glimpse of some of the grandeur that was its lobby when they were fixing up the Rite-Aid that...

in response to X Movie Theatre

Peter: if theyre really leaning that much, that would be cool! heh. lets see more pics!

Get out of your car, buddy: We have subsidized housing (not enough, but let's not go there right now), so what why don't we have subsidized retail and studio space? There are co-ops and collectives (not many of these actually own their space), but nothing organized at a municipal level. This makes great sense,...

in response to Rainy Days and Mondays

Peter: wow. now this was a nice read. curiously, ive been to the fair site a couple of times, even ridden my bike in the empty unisphere fountain and gazed forlornly at the decay of the structures, but never thought much of it, as i was always in a hurry to...

in response to Road Trip, Part II

Peter: hey, its the same faces from this entry. cool. i like these.

anonymous: Hey Sue, what sort of developer lets a so-called "illegal" building stand for over 20 years, then... and then coincidentally decides to suddenly cash in on a local housing boom? incidentally, id really like to know more about why you call this building illegal. you cant just make such an argumentative...

in response to 48 Abell Bites the Dust?

Peter: this is just a really great shot... from the clouds to the silhouetted camerabot.

in response to ESPN\'s Skycam at Minute Maid Park

Peter: any dog that wears sunglasses is #1 in my book.

in response to Cool Dog

Peter: great. now im hungry!

in response to Say Cheese

Peter: maybe it looks askew because these buildings could be on a hill, and the photo was lined up to mke the road flatter than it is? i hope not, though. it would be alot cooler if these buildings were leaning!

in response to Violins Etc...

Sue: Are you aware that the "developer" at Abell Street has owned the building since the early 80's? The building is illegal, and will be replaced by 200 legal affordable housing units?

Mora: I guess so, and whatever you say Jack, bush remains a criminal, no doubt. "Look daddy, I can beath up Saddam better then you did!" But back to topic, I believe there's alot of corruption, they are not the criminals, the people who have the power actually are.

Where will the smokers end up?: It has been a few months since the bill 112 came into effect in Québec and I have to say that I do not see how ¨Québec is breathing any easier¨as the government funded propaganda promised. What I do see is very full sidewalks (full of butts), alleys, balconies, and...
