Randy Twizzle Posted March 11, 2008 Report Posted March 11, 2008 Beautiful downtown Garfield NJ as seen through a wet train window. Some birds hanging out in Hoboken NJ across the river from Manhattan The Liberty Street pedestrian bridge leading from the World Financial Center. Quote
BERIGAN Posted March 12, 2008 Report Posted March 12, 2008 (edited) Chris, Randy, very nice photos!!!! I know that everyone is curious as to what an Autolite 2150 carb looks like inside, so...here ya go! Oh drat, silly photo size limits here....hang on a sec... carb was leaking gas badly(Is there such a think as a good gas leak?)after I rebuilt it. Why???? Here is the reason, below!!! Carb rebuild kit had the wrong size float hanger! So, float floated too well!!!! Fascinatin' ain't it???? Edited March 12, 2008 by BERIGAN Quote
BERIGAN Posted March 12, 2008 Report Posted March 12, 2008 Also rent cardboard apartments to cats down on their luck.... Quote
BERIGAN Posted March 12, 2008 Report Posted March 12, 2008 The Autolite 2150 almost has a face. I'm allergic, but the cats look nice. Conrad, do you still have that very large lunar moth? Yes I do Chris, very good memory!!!!! Quote

Larry Kart Posted March 13, 2008 Report Posted March 13, 2008 Whoa -- your work or Ann's? Great stuff, particularly the bird footprint. Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted March 13, 2008 Report Posted March 13, 2008 I did the footprint, Ann the lake. Quote

Michael Weiss Posted March 13, 2008 Report Posted March 13, 2008 (edited) I'm breaking protocol - this is a jazz photo, but it's in the same folder as the other pictures so I couldn't resist. I love this. From the Jazz @Lincoln Center auction of a few years ago. I'd really like to get inside Wayne's head into why performing with a great band, on tour, playing your own music, would be so dissatisfying! Maybe the hotels and other conditions were less than favorable. Edited March 13, 2008 by Michael Weiss Quote
Michael Weiss Posted March 13, 2008 Report Posted March 13, 2008 Here's one more and then I'll stop with the jazz photos, in this topic anyway. This is Trane's sketch for a Love Supreme. Quote
Michael Weiss Posted March 13, 2008 Report Posted March 13, 2008 Michael, you have a great view--we are both lucky in that respect. As the real estate agent told us, "Viooz ta dahy fowa" BTW, Love your jazz photos thanks. Now that I have the go ahead I'll think about posting photos of some of my favorite characters. Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted March 19, 2008 Report Posted March 19, 2008 (edited) A bit different from glitzy Manhattan: Just over 30 years ago I moved to this area. 16 year old lads were going down the pit as they left school. Today this is the only headstocks surviving - and a housing company has a request in to demolish it to 'develop' the site. The mines were wiped out in the 80s and 90s - an almost Stalinist expunging of history followed, with virtually all visible remains removed. Just the odd half a pit wheel. Very sad - the whole shape of this community was created by 100 years of coal mining. Edited March 20, 2008 by Bev Stapleton Quote
BillF Posted March 19, 2008 Report Posted March 19, 2008 Bev, you have aroused our curiosity, but your images didn't come through. They were there earlier. Now they've been replaced by these stern messages! Sinister censorship? Wrong image of Britain, perhaps? Quote
