^ yeah, Kotkin's been saying this stuff for awhile.

well, this WAS part of the deal of how the city got all the properties together for the PnL.  deal with the devil, one might say.  it's fugly, but it was always a risk.

maybe they'll erect another pergola.

pretty sure shinatoo does av work for a living.  we could all learn quite a bit from him.

I am no expert, but if you didn't have an annual fee, mighten you have been better off keeping the account permenantly open with a 0$ balance?  I think closing ten years of your good credit history can cause a pretty steep hit to your rating. i don't know that it will cause a hit, but it won't help...

new stuff today!  don't know what just yet, but probably includes imacs.

also, Apple released earnings results yesterday, with profits up 46% year over year.  they sold heaps of iphones and ipods, and mac sales were up 17%.

very, very cool.  i'm going to pick up a pair as christmas gifts for myself and my brother.  we'll each do the different parental sides.

looks like work has started on these on 435 and Roe.

Somebody forget to feed the hamster that powers the forum server again? the server the site is hosted on went down this morning around 9:45.  it's (obviously) back up, but there's some work being done on it.  they said they were done an hour ago, but it's still slow, so it's possible something is s...

you're looking at the website, i take it?

i just walked up to the ticket counter to get mine.  only took mine.  is the ticket counter normally closed on monday?

^ same here. 

i love the short city biography, haha  "...a once-huge organized crime presence, and its terrible sports teams"  also glad to see a fresh photo.

actually, clay chastain promised me a pegasus.

go ahead and report any off-topic posts in individual threads and they'll get split off.  the "report this post" isn't reserved only for offensive posts, it's for anything that needs some kind of attention. as for the currently active obama threads, i think they're ok.  but if you see any ...
