Yeah, there are those teachers. But I'm sure Zaia is one of those really cool teachers.Darth Garden Gnome wrote:I'm sure he meant it in the best way possible!

You know, I saw the coolest WTC picture a while back in one of those mall stores. It was one of those painting that light up, and it was of the pre-9-11 NYC skyline. It was very moving, and I wish I had bought it. Hell, I might go buy it now!Zaia wrote:It's ok, guys. I'm over it now.
In case you're curious, check this out. It's the photograph I was telling you about, that I have framed for Brian's roommate.
Go here: http://www2.dailynewspix.com/index.asp
Click on "WTC before 9/11" on the left.
Go to page 2.
It's the second picture in the bottom row (#N1691359). John Duprey. The title of the photo is "Vertigo," and they actually have it wrong--the man should be at the bottom of the photo, not on the side.
My grandfather had two construction workers hold his ankles so he could dangle himself over the edge and take the picture. I don't know if you can get a feel for how cool it is being such a small replication, but it's a very cool photograph.
So that's what I framed for Brian's roommate. And apparently it works in IE and not Opera....
I'm currently rather pleased with myself because I've actually made progress on my writing.RogueIce wrote:Sort of a counterpoint to the Venting Thread. Which is why I didn't do it in the HOS. After all, it's upposed to be a good thing, after all. :)
Anyway, I keep seeing a lot of threads about the negatives in your life. I do so positive stuff, but it seems outweighed by the negative. Thusly, I decided to start this. Post in here the good things you've done in a day, things that either made you feel better, or made someone else feel better. Or random nice things somebody's done for you. Things of that sort.
I have one, but I guess I'll wait and see what happens to this thread before I post it.

Though if there was a framed print somewhere of decent quality of that one with the WTC shot at night with the Statue of Liberty in the foreground, and an eagle's head bowed imposed over it, I'd get that as well. Especially a well done illuminated one.
I'm willing to bet it would last longer if it was placed in a forum similar to the HOS. Not in terms of content, but in the fairly low volume of new posts. I didn't start it in the HOS, though, since it's supposed to be a good thread and that just didn't seem appropriate.Dalton wrote:Someone tried one of these already, didn't they?
I looked.Zaia wrote:Just so you know, in case you didn't actually look at the photo, this one isn't like that. It's all about perspective, instead of about light, shadow and effect. Just so you know.
But it still kicks ass. Not that I'm biased or anything.
