diabase I'm glad you brought back the architecture as signal thread. I hope on that and the metaphysical function threads I'm not coming off as antagonistic! I love when I'm working late and your meta-meta topics get going...keeps me feeling curious despite the mundane work I'm trying to get done.
But I'm going to bed now, sorry! It's late at night here in the middle of America. Have a good day at work.

Thanks everyone for the birthday wishes.
Just for the record, I, SL, was born 20 March 1956. My brother, OL, was born 10 January 1953, but he was in a near fatal auto accident 20 March 1980, taken to the same hospital where I was born and had a lobotomy perfomed on him that afternoon.
As far as archinect is concerned quondam, Rita Novel and Wolfhilde von Schlittenfahrt are the same person.
happy birthday quondam, myriam, fro9k
hope you spent/spend it with good people
crap i realized while fabricating your horoscopes, that quondam is year of the dog (see that? my brain? amazing)

You need a bit more spice in your life. Why not treat your partner tonight by slipping into your finest home-made banana skin underpants and mooing like a cow for 4 hours solid.

Spent birthday morning delivering my mother to her doctor appointment--very apropos.
Bought some soft pretzels with my brother.
Visited the Liberty Bell Pavilion.
Late afternoon got a phone call from old friend; someone slipped some Ecstasy into their bottled water at the disco.
btw, quondam, you should come to this lecture:
David Adjaye, Making Public Buildings, April 3 at 6 p.m, Annenberg Center's Zellerbach Theatre.
He is also a museum guy.
Since I have already brought Christ to archinect.com, I thought I'd go a step further and now bring Christ to Thread Central!
It's obvious that those of you who post here on Thread Central are the most influential and respected members of this forum and hence my generous offer to let you aid me with this important mission.
Remember,
You and me,
and Jesus.
That makes three!

lb, glad you like. Most of what yesterdays posts were about was an outlet, stream of concsiousness etc. thought that I would 'bring back the biff' and put my money where my mouth is re: architectural topics/fascinations./personalities. Its all about intersecting, like Mircea Eliade says:
It follows that every construction or fabrication has the cosmogony as paradigmatic model . The creation of the world becomes the archetype of every creative human gesture, whatever its plane of reference may be. We have already seen that settling in a territory reiterates the cosmogony. Now that the cosmogonic value of the Center has become clear, we can still better understand why every human establishment repeats the creation of the world from a central point (the navel). Just as the universe unfolds from a center and stretches out toward the four cardinal points, the village comes into existence around an intersection.
ah, and here are some pics from a few weeks ago of the 4th annual hard liver barleywine fest. the list is of the beers we sampled on sunday. 87 of em. below the list are pics of the barleywine judging on saturday. hair of the dog doggie claws 2004 was best in show. there are also pics of the backroom tasting of the 87 beers.
It’s refreshing to see that archinectors are not just paper architects- and enjoy getting dirty and walking around muddy job sites.
I always wondered if a design is not built, should it be considered a completed work of architecture.
My point being is that things are fluid during the construction phase and things change sometimes for the better, project that don’t get built never go through those changes.
Abra’s dog is appearing in my dreams; every time I visit Thread Central I get that look from daisy- can’t wait fro those page numbers to be at the to of the page.
gee, i tried to change the subject but no chance. lets keep being born mainly in march. happy birthday and double happiness to all, like the chinese say. today marks my exact .5 birthday... like.. umm septembers R us.
i think this is as good a place as any to announce that the midwest is doing pretty well with archinect meetups: over the last couple of weeks, wonderk, superheavy, superbeatledud, liberty bell, and i have all met each other in either lexington or cincinnati. we talked about you guys.
is here for the long haul. that kinda-pathic grad acceptances thread will be filed away in a few weeks, but jpeg du jour, along with Thread Central, of course, will persevere.
Staying Power. your girl loves it. your client loves it. it's good.

This was a good idea you had here abra.

Happy birthday, quondam! Mine is tomorrow.
Also, wow, I had no idea they still performed lobotomies in 1980. I'm sorry.

WHO CARES, IVIES SUCK ANYWAY!

what kind of blow dryer would it take to do that?!
maybe one of those helmets that sucks the hair up into it instead of blowing air down.
sorry, this has nothing to do with anything but i'm overtired and seeing this picture i felt compelled to post it in several places.
That is RIDICULOUS.
*speechless
I even "Tr[ied} Google" to no avail.
that's just crazy.
Holy crap I just realized I surpassed 2,000 comments without even noticing!
Nothing left now but a battle to 3K with vado, I guess.
don't forget about me, my friend. at the rate both of us are going lately, you should surpass me by the end of next week.
Well e I figured we could have a gourmet beer-drinking battle, more fun than posting!
Kidding. I'm a lightweight.
Yeah, you've been fairly quiet lately. I need to work on getting deep into my second millenium.
oh, that does sound more fun. i like the way you think. hmm, we don't have to do the heavy belgians. maybe some light fruity lambics?
ah, and here are some pics from a few weeks ago of the 4th annual hard liver barleywine fest. the list is of the beers we sampled on sunday. 87 of em. below the list are pics of the barleywine judging on saturday. hair of the dog doggie claws 2004 was best in show. there are also pics of the backroom tasting of the 87 beers.

That bottle looks so......dirty.
Sorry, no more flirting, I have a meeting to go to!
ah yes, but it's oh so good on the inside.
Just thought I'd let y'all know that I'm not dead, just going to Denver for a long weekend. I'll post a couple pics when I get back.
TTFN!
p.s.- dude, Pierre Koenig used to have hair almost like that. Except his was pure white, so it was even slightly more shocking.
have a great trip rationalist. looking forward to the pics.
rationalist, it is really cold here now, but should warm up over the weekend hopefully.
