Lots of Timothy McVeigh/Kevin Durant fans on ILX.

not a lot of crossover between timothy mcveigh fans and kevin durant fans, i would imagine

Maybe in the intersection you could find the GOP nominee.

Our very own toes bonesly once started an entire ILX board called "Chairman Meow: Best cat name?"
― dyao think i'm sexy (jaymc), Friday, 2 December 2011 22:30 (twelve years ago) link
You were right about that site hurting the eyes.
"Grilled Birds"
― Sandbox Jesse, Friday, 2 December 2011 22:31 (twelve years ago) link

― toes bonesly, Friday, 2 December 2011 22:34 (twelve years ago) link

The library's christmas party isthis evening.
There will be an open bar,but I am driving.
It will be scary but also, perhaps,filled with good cheer.
― well in (advance johnson), Friday, 2 December 2011 23:00 (twelve years ago) link
can you drink and get your car tomorrow?
where do you work again? sorry, i forgot.
― Sandbox Jesse, Friday, 2 December 2011 23:08 (twelve years ago) link
The new Russian Circles album is fantastic, but I don't really get to talk about it in any metal threads because there is so much kneejerk hatred for any metal bands that incorporate anything with even a whiff of "post-rock" in it.

Oh, so I might like it then?
I think you might, actually.

Check out either Station or the new one, Empros.
I think I have been confusing them for a long time with Russian Futurists.
― dyao think i'm sexy (jaymc), Friday, 2 December 2011 23:19 (twelve years ago) link
Actually I did too for the longest time. I got sent a promo for Station back when I was writing for Metal Edge and ignored it for the longest time because I wasn't a huge fan of the Futurists beyond "Paul Simon".

Looking west down Irving Park at the intersection with Sheridan. Holiday Club now stands where the Walgreens is in this pic.

Looking west on Argyle at the intersection with Sheridan. I've been looking through a lot of pics of Uptown in the 20s and 30s and it seems like EVERY corner has a Walgreens.
― Sandbox Jesse, Saturday, 3 December 2011 01:30 (twelve years ago) link
sorry about the surge of photos. i've been home sick and i wanted to share thinks i thought were rad.
― Sandbox Jesse, Saturday, 3 December 2011 01:31 (twelve years ago) link
"seems like EVERY corner has a Walgreens."
Not unlike the Loop of today.

Ha, that's fair. Except I think Russian Circles are much better.
― I left my login in El Sandboxo, Saturday, 3 December 2011 05:04 (twelve years ago) link
Ha, I do remember. Does Kenny have a bite out of his back?
There was no sandbox when EZ alerted me to this v. important retail update, and I just fond a pic. The former Borders at Clark/Broadway/Diversey is going to be a mega-Walgreens.

Okay, wow, that is some relatively lazy SketchUp model work right there. Not bragging here, but that is beginner level and I could probably knock that out in about two hours. They really need to expand beyond the stock people and work on their shadowing.
― I left my login in El Sandboxo, Saturday, 3 December 2011 20:30 (twelve years ago) link
But I guess I shouldn't knock it too much, knowing the way clients work they probably asked for a rendering that they didn't want to pay anything extra for and I can't blame them for cranking something out.
― I left my login in El Sandboxo, Saturday, 3 December 2011 20:31 (twelve years ago) link
Also, unless they are planning to set that Walgreens back from the corner much further than the current building, that's not to scale.
