*double-take* Nay, *triple-take*! Kudos to them, and to all other participants as well - the dam has now truly broken (FINALLY!) wrt this issue...

And...? Clearly, this is your inaugural adma-wrangling experience. Good luck - you'll never receive a reasonable or cogent answer to that question. Prepare to be dubbed "Cletus", and then clubbed o'er the head with those hideous Nathan Phillips Square walkways. Again. .

(re: US school shootings...) "Everybody is wanting to know what music were the kids listening to, or what movies were they watching. Who gives a fuck what they was watching! Whatever happened to crazy? What, you can't be crazy no more? Should we eliminate crazy from the dictionary?" .

No! NOT "okay"! Vs. Defend our sacred 'u' to the bitter end! .

. Falwell blames 'pagans, abortionists, gays, feminists, lesbians' for death May 15, 2007 Afterlife News Service http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2007/5/15/15527/2018 (ANS, The Afterlife) - Echoing his comments made after 9-11 that the terrorist attack was caused by a litany of...

LOL.

^ Hey, hey, easy there, bull moose - some things are more 'wonder'-ful than others. Never thought I'd live to see the day when a hoser dissed the Holy Beaver Tail. Perhaps you have to be from Ottawa to understand. Y'know, I love this country passionately - but in some ways we really are...

Man, you've got an extraordinary knack for uncannily bang-on and impressively eloquent descriptions of architecture and art. More, please!

^ Yep, perfectly. These are really, really good, man(?) - nice variety of shots, too. Hope you treat us to many more threads like this! PS - Is your avatar Commerce Court, or something else?

Is the new track significantly larger than the previous stadium? If so, then I get it - if not, then I still don't understand why both a building and a track/stadium could not have been built on the total area provided by the previous stadium and the parking lot, without the field. (The parking...

^ Fair enough, but unlike others I'm not concerned about retail per se, but more with there being a building of some kind (residence? media centre type thing?) along Bloor rather than this big open gap. "...that parking lot is Trinity's best and only spot for expansion. Provost Macmillan's...

^ I really hope so - it's become a filthy disgrace, nearly an eyesore. When your building is this prominent, it's just not cool to let it get this cruddy looking. Ditto the CN Tower, sadly.

Ah, I see - but surely some kind of arrangement could have been struck? Or do I seriously underestimate the lack of cooperation between the College and the University?

Ditto. Now imagine the same view with 1 Bloor East, Uptown, Crystal Blu, and other proposed St.Thomas projects - it will be truly magnificent. Exciting times!

^ Agree, and you're right re the space to set it back from Bloor (there was a parking lot at the south end of the original stadium). I just don't understand what they were thinking here. That said, the stadium looks pretty good, so far, thankfully. Though I dread the arrival of The Bubble...

Thanks a lot for this - great update, including some rarely seen projects. Goddamn this forum's great!

Wow, some of the best Barcelona pics I've ever seen - well done! And you've made an instant Gaudi fan out of me. What's the Picasso museum like - does it compare to the one in Paris, if you've been there? And do you know anything about the tower in part II that looks like Foster's Swiss...

^ Agree. It's starting to win me over again, which is a huge relief and delight. Great pics - thanks. (That said, fiendish's rant is still the best thing ever said about this thing.) ^ LOL.

Great pics! Man, that does look like a blast. Football fans are nuts - cool to have this kind o' thing gearing up in TO.

. This kind o' thing is great to see - Canada needs far more of this, and far less petty regional sneering... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Montreal, Toronto say 'Oui' to...
