Hysterical - My hair is more brown now though.

Are you sure you got the right clan tartan for Ewen in your fuckingmasterpiece?

Is that Numb being there in spirit in case he doesn't come?

I like how :shifty:

I look, and how we're all boys on one side, girls on the other (except for Rick, of course, hmm) like a middle school dance. :drool:

It's a social commentary. It explores the dichotomy of human social structures via the practice of worshiping Nationalistic figureheads. Duuurrr.

Numb symbolizes the outside world and it's inherent inability fully partake in the celebration of life. I''l leave the rest for you all to figure out.

Not knowing which clan Ewen belongs too I invented a tartan that I call Clan MacAwesome.

^ lol - your instructions are almost as good as these:

I was referring to the "7" apparently. It looked like I would need to take it on the map - not that I would be walking .33 miles!!

the 7 train goes into queens... don't think you want to be taking that one.

when ya get into the times square subway station head to the signs that say 1/2/3 Downtown.

If you get the local, it's 5 stops (34th street/penn station, 28th, 23rd, 18th, 14th). if you get the express (weekdays only) it's 2 stops (34th, 14th).

head out the exit, which will say 14th & 7th. flannery's is on 14th street... almost on the corner, but not quite. the "donut pub" is in between the corner and the bar. red/crimson awning, easy to find.

as for what time the subway will be there... up until recently i didn't even realize the subways had a time schedule, i just thought they kinda came every 5-10 minutes or so. so don't ask me, i have no idea.

But couldn't she just go the other way? The 7 makes stops in the City, no? And worse comes to worst she could visit Main St, Flushing and Shea Stadium and .... all that cool Queens stuff.

Nice - I may have to print this off for my Sociology class. It's better than all the other diagrams in my book. :drool:

Oh, the "purple" ( :cute:

That would be awesome. I also give lectures, have your prof call me if s/he wants to set something up. Naturally I will need first class airfare and accomodations, but I think my lecture series is well worth it.

i got thrown out of my freshman year sociology class for telling the professor that it was a fake subject.

LarryMullen's POPAngel · Feb 28, 2007

I actually love it. :shrug:

I used to like Anthropology. Which I took at St. Johns. Which is in NYC, so I'm still on topic.

Is Queensbridge a definite no-go?

It's sorta like a hip-hop Vatican for me...I wouldn't mind taking a few pictures, but not if I'm going to lose my camera for it. :yikes:
