EvilGentleman: Yeah, those are DDR machines. My daughter was showing some to me when we were waiting for a movie to start. (Most theaters have mini-arcades by the lobby nowadays)
I also noticed in the pic with...... EvilGentleman: Hi. I just arrived here from a Google search, and I just want to say that I find this picture very misleading. But at least you are not asking me to buy a membership...... EvilGentleman: Thank you for your service, jack.... EvilGentleman: Mitch, I am as saddened as you are at the loss of Ben's, and I thank you profusely for your contributions. Without you, this article would just be a few pictures of a closed Ben's,...... EvilGentleman: Congratulations to President-Elect Barack Obama.... EvilGentleman: Sigh, all gone. Just a pile of broken concrete now. Sorry I have not been posting pictures, I have not posted anything in ages. Still slowly taking pictures, but I keep finding other ways to...... EvilGentleman: I took some pictures this afternoon, as well. From the looks of the back, I was within half an hour or less of you. I was only able to snap pics from inside my van...... EvilGentleman: Went by the site today, took some pictures of a crew removing some of the upper bricks. I may post them when I get around to it.
While doing this, I wound up speaking with a...... EvilGentleman: An article from the {Montreal Gazette} last Saturday, October 11:
[[http://www.canada.com/montrealgazette/news/story.html?id=f29d7a30-f182-4300-b85e-a8737693c7a8]]
A passage from the article answers many questions posed in here:
"In about two weeks we'll send in mechanical shovels with shears to tear down the building."...... EvilGentleman: My wife was there today. I think they have them until it snows now.... EvilGentleman: The text on the left side of the U-Haul truck reads:
#91
Venture Across America
North Carolina
Carnivores of the Green Swamp Preserve
Did you know...
The endangered Venus Fly Trap and Pitcher Plant feed on small insects for survival. How...... EvilGentleman: I have to run, but I will try to look it up when I get back.... EvilGentleman: Still waiting...... EvilGentleman: I recall the same unfortunate small mentality when I used to live in {Chatham}, New Brunswick, now amalgamated with {Newcastle} to form the regional municipality of {Miramichi}. Most people were good decent folks, but there...... EvilGentleman: Thanks for reposting, Mitch.
And thanks for the explanations, editor.
From the way you wrote "Come on guys", I suspect you felt I was complaining. Just to let you know, that is definitely not the case at...... EvilGentleman: Or for the matter, the comments I made in reply?... EvilGentleman: What happened to the pics Mitch posted yesterday?... EvilGentleman: Yeah, I passed by again around midnight last night, and the word "Bens" was all that was left of the sign as seen in the first picture here. I also saw the plywood barriers about...... EvilGentleman: Yeah, I have went by a few times to have a look, and there is a hole in the east face of the building now. I did not take pictures since it was dark each...... EvilGentleman: Sigh... yep.... EvilGentleman: Thank you for commenting, Vanesa. I think we actually agree, since what I meant by temporary is that I believed that the torch was only lit during the period that IOC-approved games were happening. I...... EvilGentleman: I will let him know your request, and I will tell him to check the page again so he can get your addy. I gave him links to this page a while ago.... EvilGentleman: If you look carefully, the nationality of the cuisine was corrected over 2 years ago. Someone commented the same thing on July 11, 2006. But thanks for the correction.... EvilGentleman: I never got to see Coney Island, and now it's shutting down forever. I feel like I've been robbed of the chance to see one of America's true icons.... EvilGentleman: Lemme guess, your friends did not have it explained well enough to them that the $20 each was PER SONG, am I right? And tipping is virtually mandatory on top of that. Strip bars are...... EvilGentleman: Heh, just realized that I used the technically-correct (although misspelled) spelling of the band's name, with the little dots over the o and u. This means that unless I add a tag here in the...... EvilGentleman: Sigh, such a Canadian response there, zagg. "One of these days, I'm gonna make a sign" ranks right up there with "I have half a mind to write them a stern letter".... Juergen (an immigrant): Dear EvilGentleman,
it seems I'm the first one in this blog that MOVED into one of the Benny farm houses ( in the Prince of Wales section) and up until now I can only say it...... ikkiarialik from kangirsujuaq:27th aug-2008-22h27: EvilGentleman you are so cool.You take a nice picture of my town

I want to devote my life to wandering around the streets, picking up shiny things.... EvilGentleman: Based on the plaque below them, I suspect they are originals.

EvilGentleman: Heh, I guess we both matured some over the last couple of years.... kman: Hey Evilgentleman (two yrs later...) my remarks about close mindedness was not directed towards you but rather towards the comments from other posters ("yuck", "silly"). And yes, i think glossed over your point about the...... EvilGentleman: Is that the station at the corner of Park Avenue? Nice one. There is also a station at de Bourbonniere and Sherbrooke near the Olympic Stadium with the great price of 0.00. Only problem is,...... EvilGentleman: Shoot, I was driving down Pine Ave the other day, and I have never seen this one before. I really have to start biking again, I miss too damn much when I drive. Nice find,...... EvilGentleman: A year has gone by, and this article has fallen to 25th place out of the 26 articles listed in the "Best of August 2007" page. I find it amazing how the best articles here...... EvilGentleman: Well, this definitely predates my time, since I was born in Nova Scotia in 1969. Perhaps this question should be posted at [[http://groups.msn.com/Bennyfarm]], where many of Benny Farm's old residents keep tabs on one another.... Metro301: Great pictures and discussion MR. Evilgentleman! Thank you.
Perhaps this is a strange question, but I will ask it anyway. Does anyone happen to remember a man that passed away at 47 years from a heart...... EvilGentleman: I got my new camera two weeks after this concert. Sigh... If only I had it a little earlier...... EvilGentleman: Montreal strip bars are usually open 365 days a year.

EvilGentleman: Heh, I used to do 50 km/h on flat roads on my clunky old $99 mountain bike from Canadian Tire. I could peak at 58 to 60. Mind you, I could only keep that pace...... EvilGentleman: anon, I thank you for educating us on the train parts. I think of trains as big noisy metal things that carry stuff, and sometimes have graf on the outside. I am a total moron...... EvilGentleman: Hell no! Saturday was Maiden day, and Sunday was Crue day. And thanks for commenting here, I totally forgot about posting all the other pics of the other bands.... EvilGentleman: I wonder if this is a branch of the Bush family...... EvilGentleman: Two years and a few months later, this article still defines several different conflicts in a way that few if any articles can.
{Motorists} vs {Cyclists}
{Road Rage} vs {Radical Activism}
{Male} vs {Female}
{Entitled} vs {Empowered}
The article that...... EvilGentleman: They now seem to take place every Sunday, rain or shine. But when the weather is really bad, only the most hard-core tam-tam people stay there. Last year, they kept going until Halloween, if I...... EvilGentleman: A little email to the editors and a lot of respect goes a long way.... EvilGentleman: I was wondering what it said. I am so useless when it comes to reading graf. Unless some goof like me decides to tag everything in Times New Roman or Arial...
And speaking of graffiti timelapses,...... EvilGentleman: Hehe, it kept their maintenance guy busy for two days. The last two photos were taken thru my rear view mirror because he saw me taking the 5th pic and started glaring at me like...... EvilGentleman: To me, it would depend heavily on the particulars of the location where the photo was shot. If the man in the photo was in the midst of a well-frequented public space, then public domain...... EvilGentleman: BostonVisitor, I honestly have no clue about the costs of prostitutes in the city, nor where to go for the best deals. But like any other commodity, the sex market will provide better quality for...... EvilGentleman: Every condo comes with entertainment: You can play {plinko} with the other balconies.... EvilGentleman: True Peter. That is why I use fanatical as an adjective and not a noun in its own right. It differentiates the fanatical vegans from the quieter zagg-like ones. Actually, there are a lot of...... EvilGentleman: Nice to know that there are enough fanatical vegans to go around. And I thought North America was hoarding them all for themselves...
I usually put ground pork in my pasta sauces. Same sawdust filler, lower...... EvilGentleman: Jeez, and I had always thought that Eritrea was a country on Africa's Red Sea coast which recently (early 1990's) gained its freedom from Ethiopia. Capital Asmera, population around 5 million? And a former Italian...... 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...... 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...... EvilGentleman: We really missed a good opportunity to do an urbex of this site before they tore it down.... 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...... EvilGentleman: It's all gone now, just a giant hole in the ground. The Satanic Jesus has been removed and/or destroyed.... EvilGentleman: That is one interesting-looking ruin. Any chance of you adding some more pics of it, possibly in the comments below?... EvilGentleman: It should be pointed out that I never "Advertised" the {statue} to be truly {Satanic} in nature. I have merely stated how the people in the {Village Des Tanneries} part of {Montreal}'s {Saint-Henri} district describe...... EvilGentleman: No news here either, Mitch. Actually, at this point, you are my main source of news about Ben's.... EvilGentleman: I figured as much. I would not have guessed WDW, but I was pretty sure it was a mural outside the San Francisco area, and somewhere that you travel, which narrowed it down to the...... EvilGentleman: Wow. Knockout urbex piece, Peter! Love it!... EvilGentleman: Nicely titled. Perhaps "Cherubic Cloud-Humping" might have worked, as well.... EvilGentleman: Nooooooo!... EvilGentleman: Finding some pretty cool stuff while searching...
I like this one in Brussels: [[http://www.xymara.com/inmyx/article-brussels_4-brussels_2-small.jpg]]... EvilGentleman: Actually, forget New York. Peter would probably know about it if it was in New York.... EvilGentleman: The picture is OF San Francisco. After all, what cities besides San Francisco would stencil "San Francisco Public works" on their wooden barriers?
The pastel colours and what looks like the telltale stair-like outline of slightly...... EvilGentleman: Sigh... I miss Meigs Field. Damn Richard Daley to hell for that one...... EvilGentleman: Nice to know, thank you. There are so many things we do not learn about over here in Canada.... CMc: EvilGentileman : yes Glasgow was bombed during the blitz... EvilGentleman: Nice find. I understand there's not too many pieces of the Toynbee tiles left nowadays...... EvilGentleman: Thank god you clarified that, Jamie. I was about to tell you that I don't post those ones.
And kudos to you, Montrealbunny, for recognizing the tiles of the Lionel-Groulx station. I had not noticed that,...... EvilGentleman: Heh. This one has been sitting in my hard drive, waiting for me to stop procrastinating. Guess I'm too late. Nice post.... EvilGentleman: As of yesterday, Ben's was still unchanged. All the chairs are still stacked up by the window, and the signs are still there.... EvilGentleman: That is one of the most heart-warming pictures I have seen here in ages.... EvilGentleman: Who knows what sort of information is floating around behind those closed doors...... EvilGentleman: Well, at least you did not catch her a la Britney, Paris and Lindsey, with the obligatory upskirt shot climbing out of a limo.... EvilGentleman: Hehe, it is at this point, CE, that our age differences truly begin to show.... EvilGentleman: Thanks, Mitch. You just saved me about 50 bucks worth of gas. I have been going downtown more often lately, specifically to check on the current status of Ben's.... EvilGentleman: Let hear it for slinking! I am reminded of [[7658:this post]] by jack. Nice one.
Joey, the problem with the height signs is, they are all metric here. I have no clue how many centimeters tall...... EvilGentleman: All I know, is I have seen a lot of the little speed limit signs along the bike trails, usually proclaiming a limit of 20 km per hour. I confess that I have not been...... EvilGentleman: Beatiful set of photos. You really captured the emotions of the rallies. I especially like the irony of the girl wearing a mask that says, "NO CNN", but a baseball cap that says, "American Blue...... EvilGentleman: Actually, I cannot place it. But the description you gave tells me I have must have overlooked this one. Maybe it's along one of those stretches of the bike trail where I tend to ride...... EvilGentleman: I have an old pic from 1994 or 1995 posted in one of my posts in the [[3039:Train Derails on Bridge]] series. I am currently about 305 pounds (people always guess me at about 250...... EvilGentleman: Hmmm, where is this building? Looks interesting...... EvilGentleman: I know the area well. CE and I have biked around this area before. Sunsets there are quite beautiful, with the sun reflecting off the tops of the colourful buildings, and that in turn reflected...... EvilGentleman: What's a telephone? Ohhhh, wait... Is that one of things that is like a cellphone, but plugs into a wall, and has wires coming out of it?
Hehe, seems like yesterday, when my VCR remote had...... EvilGentleman: A few suggestions in order to reduce damage in future disturbances:
1 - Do **not** leave portable metal street signs with plate metal bases lying around on the streets when large events are taking place. Most...... EvilGentleman: Thanks for the referral. There are so many other good pictures out there, I am surprised that you like these ones.... EvilGentleman: Actually Peter, logic would tell you that a loss would have been catastrophic, I agree. But that is not the case in Montreal. Had the Canadiens ##lost##, the crowds would have been grumpy and sullen,...... EvilGentleman: Some of the Youtube videos are something else... WOW!
[[http://youtube.com/results?search_query=habs+riot&search_type=]]... EvilGentleman: Last time GGP found a [[3629:bunny]], citynoise went crazy!
[[img:27192]]
Heh, I was viewer number 50,000. Random.
Glad to see a happier bunny this time.
Can I do a special bunny request? Bugs Bugs Bugs Bugs Bugs!!!!!... EvilGentleman: Should I stay or should I go now?
Should I stay or should I go now?
If I go, there will be trouble.
If I stay, it will be double.
So come on and let me know,
Should I stay......
