is it sad that I don't really know how to mspaint? I am a Mac guy on an office pc.

I can't figure crayons out either. Technology is frustrating.

could that commute be done entirely on one of WHAMATA's famous even-numbered 30 buses?

note masonic compass emanating from steps of capitol and masonic sort-of pentagram emanating out the president's winter home

El Tomboto, Tuesday, 24 July 2007 20:14 (eighteen years ago)

I was expecting the owl.

I would like to do this but I don't really have the MS skills or time to muck about with it.

Ms Misery, Tuesday, 24 July 2007 20:16 (eighteen years ago)

there are no mspaint skills
mspaint defies all skill unless you're my friend helltime who basically uses mspaint all day to pass the time

El Tomboto, Tuesday, 24 July 2007 20:17 (eighteen years ago)

That's not a pentagram, it's a Star of David.

admrl, Tuesday, 24 July 2007 20:18 (eighteen years ago)

VERY fitting

The first one was too confusing and this one is too simple and lacks depth. Try to find a middle ground in your future work.

i KNOW. i am just asking why he did not make normal compass map.
is ok. i can deal, i just have to flip things in mah head.

tehresa, Thursday, 26 July 2007 05:22 (eighteen years ago)

Makes sense to me!

Clay, Thursday, 26 July 2007 05:30 (eighteen years ago)

it is v. interesting, though. my map would include many different things if flipped, but i think of my neighborhood in the standard compass directions. if you had made yours in a normal top=north fashion, would it change what you included?

tehresa, Thursday, 26 July 2007 05:32 (eighteen years ago)

I suppose I might have thrown in the bakery.

Clay, Thursday, 26 July 2007 05:40 (eighteen years ago)

where is grady's tropical paradise map?

My map fits right over the East End on RJG's (and a tiny bit west of High Street). Now stalk me.

Madchen, Thursday, 26 July 2007 16:53 (eighteen years ago)

Closer to Flushing. (Bayside.)

Casuistry, Thursday, 26 July 2007 17:02 (eighteen years ago)

it's something like this, but i didn't consult a map. i left out a few minor streets too.

sunny successor, Friday, 27 July 2007 20:00 (eighteen years ago)

It's the base of the big statue, next to the cathedral -- the eye is drawn to the winged battle and moon-face and giraffeasaurus thing, but at the base there is a giant crab claw clutching a severed human head.

Abbott, Friday, 27 July 2007 20:12 (eighteen years ago)

wow

sunny successor, Friday, 27 July 2007 20:16 (eighteen years ago)

Fun facts:

- that's allegedly, like ... the largest gothic-style church in North America, or something
- it's not even finished, hence the scaffolding
- its official archivist/librarian is Madeleine L'Engle
- its yearly Blessing of the Animals freaked the hell out of me when I first moved to town, because I went out to get tacos and there was a BULL and a PENGUIN walking down the middle of the street like nothing was up
- if you zoom in really far on that picture, you can find me urinating behind a bush

nabisco, Friday, 27 July 2007 20:18 (eighteen years ago)

what is the name of this church?

kenan, Friday, 27 July 2007 20:20 (eighteen years ago)

THE NABISCO PEE PEE CHURCH

Mr. Que, Friday, 27 July 2007 20:22 (eighteen years ago)

when i was there in 97 it was all scaffolding too. when will they finish??

ST Johns? Catholic, right?

sunny successor, Friday, 27 July 2007 20:23 (eighteen years ago)

cathedral of st. john the divine

note the accuracy of my mspaint rendition

nabisco, Friday, 27 July 2007 20:26 (eighteen years ago)

Oh hey is that bookzstore any good? I could go for a good near-a-university bookzstore and some Ethiops be making coffee.

Casuistry, Sunday, 29 July 2007 17:32 (eighteen years ago)

It's the best new book store in the city.

C0L1N B..., Sunday, 29 July 2007 17:59 (eighteen years ago)

New? Blah. Well I'll still check it out. I was pleased enough by McN-Rob.

Casuistry, Sunday, 29 July 2007 18:03 (eighteen years ago)

They have really good clearance stuff--I think there's a bunch of Dalkey Archives stuff going for like $4 right now. New York is not great for used books.

C0L1N B..., Sunday, 29 July 2007 18:06 (eighteen years ago)

Well no, but there are a decent number of stores at least.

Mmm, Dalkey.

Casuistry, Sunday, 29 July 2007 18:36 (eighteen years ago)

hasn't bookz been there for like 10 years?

gabbneb, Sunday, 29 July 2007 18:45 (eighteen years ago)

New books, gabbneb.

C0L1N B..., Sunday, 29 July 2007 18:52 (eighteen years ago)

nabisco, where's the ethiopian coffee place? WANT NOW

also tehresa's northcastle map is very accurate. i cant think of anything i'd add.
