gwh, that's interesting that you though of toastermom's vag as 'special construction'. I was thinking 'conveying equipment' all the way. Although 'plumbing: emergency showers' crossed my mind.
RIP doesn't seem like the right thing to say....so I think I will Say Guys Keep on Playing where ever you are.....Dave Brubeck (91), Oscar Niemeyer (104) cause I know there not the kind of guys to stop doing what they do...it is just in another place.
Rusty - I was originally going to write something far more detailed about your lack of genitalia, but I thought that would be a little bit too insensitive.
Yeah, losing Niemeyer and Brubeck on the same day was just brutal! I was kinda surprised by my reaction, actually. Apparently I didn't know how much those guys meant to me.
But on a more positive note, I also thought I'd stop by to say congrats to Donna. Awesome project!
barry I'd heard about that feral parrot colony but I didn't know anyone who'd actually seen it! Awesome. Also, good on you for getting a place with a persimmon tree - what luck!
Toaster you tossing out the ADA Regulations regarding required door widths. Actually I have run into a situation where a 42" door is more in keeping for those in electric wheelchairs.
The one that always gets me is when ramps and elevators are so clearly labeled and available, but I can't find the dang stairs for the life of me! This always happens at my doctor's office, no less. Seems very inconsistent with their message.
bunch of opposition from the local community - although I'm curious about this opposition - the extensive urban farms that was proposed by Vogel and Students at UofD Mercy back in the late 90s had lot of local support - these ideas have been floating around since at least the late 80s. maybe now that it's a reality people are starting to have second thoughts? I'm wondering if it is because it's going to be a single contiguous plot instead of something more pixelated and decentralized - and it might feel like the city is giving up on the neighborhood instead of using farming as infill until "real investment" happens... maybe people are concerned about illicit activity that might happen amongst the trees...
I don't know - it will be very interesting to see how this unfolds.
toaster I've been digging a little looking for a plan of the project, or a Google Earth image that shows the boundaries, and how many houses are being removed for it. Do you have one, or can you point me to a website?
Just put up my firewood for winter....well most of it. It is wonderful when a truck backs up your driveway and dumps it in a pile and all you have to do is stack it. So now we can roast chestnuts in the fireplace....Snow coming on Sunday.....so we be in the Spirit...HO...HO ...HO!

I could have gone with 14 91 00 "Garbage Chute" but I ultimately respect your mom. She raised a funny boy.

But wouldn't toaster's mom be an oven, so something from the commercial kitchen section?

Sarah, I should retain you as a daily life advisor. My putdowns need a voice of reason.
Rusty - I was originally going to write something far more detailed about your lack of genitalia, but I thought that would be a little bit too insensitive.
btw - your mom? all of division 8.
All this makes me wish we had a Yo Mama thread, with purely archi-related put downs.
Rusty, send me a proposal, and I will consider your offer, assuming it's a lucrative one.
And since I hadn't ventured out of the safety of TC for years, until this week, Vile Child, sarcastic, or whiny? I can't tell.
sarah, i had the same thought about a "yo mama" thread... i'll try my hand at one...
"yo mama so fat, reyner banham called her a mega-structure"
ha ha ha haaaaa division 8. har har har har doors and windows.
its sarcastic.
glad i could help.
yo mama so fat, rem had to add a new chapter at the of s,m,l,xl
Alright, I'll go make the thread, but I'm borrowing the ones you guys have already posted for examples.
Thank you, Vile Child.
yo mama so fat when she bent over the whole world lost three days of daylight 8D
i had to do it lol
Thread started.

I'm alive!
Thanks miesian and dia!
Barry that's craaazy!
If you see a green bird in Brazil your going to have good luck....so Barry your in for a lot of luck!
snook that's true, over there they want to capture everything that moves for pets!
i pick beta's richard meier entry as the winner of the 'yo mama' thread for yesterday. i actually laughed, didn't cringe! kudos.
i just put one on there. it's fat!
yeah - too many fat jokes - it's too easy. non/low-fat jokes are a challenge.
barry I'd heard about that feral parrot colony but I didn't know anyone who'd actually seen it! Awesome. Also, good on you for getting a place with a persimmon tree - what luck!
thank you sir!
guys...
guys...
I think we can fight the obesity epidemic by making doorways smaller. don't question my logic.
Toaster you tossing out the ADA Regulations regarding required door widths. Actually I have run into a situation where a 42" door is more in keeping for those in electric wheelchairs.
ADA is making people fat.
toaster, I'm going to start calling you TAOster. Because everything you say is so zen for me.
Smaller doorways. Unassailable. Far out.
The one that always gets me is when ramps and elevators are so clearly labeled and available, but I can't find the dang stairs for the life of me! This always happens at my doctor's office, no less. Seems very inconsistent with their message.
good morning TC!
i'm not fat.sure i could lose a few pounds but, i always use the handicap stall to do my business.
Me too, I feel like the wonderwoman in it !

I know I can be prudish at times, but that last Yo Mama comment was just gross.
Totally offensive not to mention racist. I flagged it. I encourage you all to do so too.
The funion one was good, though.

ten minutes of Wonder Woman Spins? WTH!
so - the whole city as urban farm thing in Detroit is moving ahead - 140 acres of tree farm on the east side.
Story on the Detroit tree farm. I love this idea.

here you go
not all info - but gives you a sense of just how big this is.
