Re: September Image
Not sure why you ask, but no, nowhere close. Well the picture looked like you took it while in the city. And if you were in the city, I'm performing Thurs-Sun, I was going to invite you to a show. - Oni

Re: September Image
Ooh, tempting since NYC is only a few hours away, but we have plans this weekend. Raincheck? Of course, anytime you want to come into the city. - Oni

Re: September Image
That would be awesome! If it happens definitely let me know. Keeping it on topic, what capacity is your company involved? I see it all the time. It really is looking amazing. I unfortunately didn't get a chance to see the twin towers before Bush had them demolished. - Oni

Re: September Image
Do any of your comic buddies know how big of a nerd you really are? I have long hair and tattoo's...I hide my nerdome very well. Comedy is over run by nerds these days anyway. I don't know of any who debate EvC online though. I think I'm alone in that one.
I can see you introducing Percy: "Hey guys, this is my online friend. He runs a discussion board where we argue with Christians about the finer points of cosmology, heh heh, *snort." It would be an honor...to introduce him as my cousin from Miami  "Percy, quick, act Cuban."

Re: September Image
We'll be developing a giant mall in part of it. Then we definitely won this war.
Personally I hate shopping malls. But the infrastructure side of things can be reasonably interesting and it pays the bills. No doubt. It's odd though, I'm guessing you work for a British company? Or I think you once mentioned Aussie? I kind of got this feeling when you said you guys were involved like, shouldn't it all be American companies building this thing? I know it really doesn't matter, but have you guys faced any animosity like that for being a foreign company on what is now considered holy grounds for Americans? - Oni Edited by onifre, : No reason given.

Re: September Image
It's an Aussie company (hence the free beer on Fridays) That's right!
I can get why you would prefer it to be US companies developing that particular site. I think I'd be more inclined to care if it were foreign builders. Thinking about it more, I guess developers are just suits that are some-what behind the scene. I'm sure you guys will still be sub-contracting all the physical work to union construction companies. So technically, American hands will build it.
If there was I think I'd support it (I'm not particularly into corporate loyalty) You're a good man, Straggler. - Oni Edited by onifre, : No reason given.

Re: September Image
Dont those Indian guys do the steelwork? It baffles me when people us the term "indian" for native Americans. Do you not know they were mistakenly called that when Columbus thought he was in India? I have no idea about "those indian guys who do the ironwork". - Oni

Re: September Image
Not all Native Americans prefer that term; some prefer "Indian." Oh, sure, but I was talking about the actual history and origin of the word. Call somebody Indian for long enough I'm some might like it. But it was an incorrect name from the get go. Columbus thought he was in India. - Oni
