Too soon?

[Pops head out]
But, before I go, can I just say this is perfect sleeping-out-of-doors-in-a-Civil-War-era-tent weather?
Posted by: Tent_Loving_Troll at October 13, 2009 9:18 AM
The markets have been telling us that the world will not end. Yes, gold is up but that's a response to dollar weakness. GS just upgraded japanese steels overnight after the World Steel Assoc. said that 2010 demand will rise 9.2%. Stay invested in Foreign equities to get the growth plus the strong currencies.
Spend your profits on drinks at Union Hall.

People who live in civil war era tents shouldn't complain about having shelter (especially when they are taking up room on someone's balcony. :-)

ROFL, chicken. I told THL she really needed to start the contest earlier in the day.

Thanks for the mammaries CarGar!
Posted by: the chicken at October 13, 2009 9:27 AM
CGar...they are trying to get "the other side of the trade." They ran it all the way up and now it's time to shake the sell orders out of the buyers. Our target was $200 so leaving the last 5% move on the table is a prudent thing. We're out of it today and buying Jap steels.

Arkady, if we are switching tack-le then I will have to bone up on my euphemisms.
Posted by: the chicken at October 13, 2009 9:28 AM
I still maintain, as I commented last night after everyone had already left, that they should be referred to as "stoops" in keeping with the overall brownstone theme.

LOL, I saw your final post, Dave. I've taken to reading the late edition of the OT. You never know whose going to chime in after hours, or when BrooklynGreene will decide to lecture the rest of us for wasting time posting on a blog. How irony is lost on some people.

The meat is always sweeter closest to the bone.
Posted by: daveinbedstuy at October 13, 2009 9:39 AM
The "everything was invented in..." comments remind me of a old sketch show called "Goodness Gracious Me". One particular character insists that everything of note comes from India.
Don't know if you'll be able to see it from over there.

Benson, those protesters at that school are ridiculous. Those kids probably think they're bunch of bullies. couldn't they protest somewhere else so the kids are not impacted?
Posted by: more4less at October 13, 2009 10:03 AM
more4less- that would be asking for logic and perspective from the protesters.

Pete;
I was in DC a couple of weeks ago for a conference and there was one thing about it that drove me crazy: it's really tough to find a place to buy a paper. I was at K and 4th Street, and I had to walk about 5 blocks to finally find a place that sold the WSJ. After that experieince, I really appreciated NYC's newstands, even though they sometimes annoy me.

I was down in washington in 2007 and the homeless were highly visible then too. The veterans are the saddest to see. This country should be ashamed to see any veteran on the street.

Posted by: the chicken at October 13, 2009 10:18 AM
in DC they seem to sell the papers from the boxes not newsstands. And did seem to be long walk to deli, grocery, any convenience. But neighborhoods (at least in area I stayed in) were beautiful. Even new construction seem to blend in (not sure what kinda restrictions if any they have on architecture..other than nothing taller than capital bldg).
Posted by: Petebklyn at October 13, 2009 10:19 AM
Chicken;
You're probably right. Sad, but true. I get a fair amount of info off the internet, but it still isn't the same as a paper.

Cyrano
"My nose is Gargantuan! You little Pig-snout, you tiny Monkey-Nostrils, you virtually invisible Pekinese-Puss, don't you realize that a nose like mine is both scepter and orb, a monument to me superiority? A great nose is the banner of a great man, a generous heart, a towering spirit, an expansive soul--such as I unmistakably am, and such as you dare not to dream of being, with your bilious weasel's eyes and no nose to keep them apart! With your face as lacking in all distinction--as lacking, I say, in interest, as lacking in pride, in imagination, in honesty, in lyricism--in a word, as lacking in nose as that other offensively bland expanse at the opposite end of your cringing spine--which I now remove from my sight by stringent application of my boot!"

crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, cumin, onion and garlic powder, brown sugar, salt

Posted by: daveinbedstuy at October 13, 2009 1:56 PM
bxgrl,
the reason people are up in arms about the nobel peace prize is that many see this as a form of meddling by foreign interests.
no doubt, this should be expected since it is a form of asymmetrical diplomacy on the part of left leaning Europeans, but what is aggravating is the fact that they attempt to pass it off as some sort of consensus opinion on what is right in the world in their minds.
I guess I can't blame them for doing it, but let's see it for what it is these days.
I seem to recall last year around this time when they were giving out the nobel prize for literature and someone asked one of the judges why an American wasn't in contention, and the fool said something to the effect that, "we cannot let the US become the center of the cultural world..."
in other words, they were making judgements on literature based on political expediency.

CG_ups, now that Pete mentions it, I, too, seem to recall only giving my tenants an initial lease, and I don't believe I ever gave them a renewal lease, though this is probably because my good tenants stayed on, and because they were good tenants I didn't raise their rent.

Don't know about the rest of Europe but certainly in the UK the reaction to Obama's Peace Prize was generally one of bemusement. Even though he is popular there, people seem to think it odd.

Posted by: daveinbedstuy at October 13, 2009 2:13 PM
C Gar- today's WaPo.
Legion- you may be right but honestly considering the vitriol that has been hurled at Obama, I seriously don't think people like Rush Limbaugh care about foreign interests meddling. He just wants ammo to attack Obama. In fact, these days its obvious that the GOP cares nothing about the public, the country or anything but their own party interests. At least that's what the most vocal, right wing element would have us believe.
Posted by: bxgrl at October 13, 2009 2:13 PM
I think Legion's main point is spot on.
Moving past the issue of Obama's win, I really think a law should be passed that states that henceforth no sitting American president shall accept a Nobel Peace Prize or other such awards. He is in the middle of making a decision about what to do regarding Afghanistan, and this award is not helpful in that regard. No matter what he does, folks will wonder if his decision-making process was affected by the award.

Legion,
It's very likely that they will win. The fact that their vote is more evenly spread than Labour's means that it could be close in terms of seats in Parliament.
A Conservative victory in the UK would make very little difference wrt foreign policy beyond the EU. Both parties for now seem to be committed to an escalation in Afghanistan (a mistake in my opinion).

bxgrl,
I hardly ever get to listen to Limbaugh. Frankly I think he's sometimes longwinded and overly convoluted in his perspective. I don't see him as the standard bearer of conservativism, I think that is left to individuals based on their own experiences. I do think that he articulates many of the foundations of conservativism well and without compromise and with an eye towards ratings, not unlike Bill Maher or David Letterman for that matter.
I never perceived Letterman or Fey or Maher as the democratic party but as democrats with a perspective.

I'm with you, DH, this is getting tired. What's latest is a bit disconcerting, however. There were times before -- about a year ago -- where I thought he tipping toward the edge of real threats of violence. Not sure what to make of the latest. But it seems pointless to have the same tired political arguments, the same obsession with who posts on whose blog, etc.
Anyone intersted in houses and real estate? Maybe there's a market for a blog on the topic.

Posted by: daveinbedstuy at October 13, 2009 3:15 PM
JOKE TIME!!!!
The IRS decides to audit Grandpa, and summons him to the IRS office.
The IRS auditor was not surprised when Grandpa showed up with his attorney.
The auditor said, 'Well, sir, you have an extravagant lifestyle and no full-time employment, Which you explain by saying that you win money gambling. I'm not sure the IRS finds that believable.'
I'm a great gambler, and I can prove it,' says Grandpa. 'How about a demonstration?'
The auditor thinks for a moment and said, 'Okay. Go ahead.'
Grandpa says, 'I'll bet you a thousand dollars that I can bite my own eye.'
The auditor thinks a moment and says, 'It's a bet.'
Grandpa removes his glass eye and bites it. The auditor's jaw drops.
Grandpa says, 'Now, I'll bet you two thousand dollars that I can bite my other eye.'
Now the auditor can tell Grandpa isn't blind, so he takes the bet.
Grandpa removes his dentures and bites his good eye..
The stunned auditor now realizes he has wagered and lost three grand, with Grandpa's attorney as a witness. He starts to get nervous.
'Want to go double or nothing?' Grandpa asks 'I'll bet you six thousand dollars that I can stand on one side of your desk, and pee into that wastebasket on the other side, and never get a drop anywhere in between.'
The auditor, twice burned, is cautious now, but he looks carefully and decides there's no way this old guy could possibly manage that stunt, so he agrees again.
Grandpa stands beside the desk and unzips his pants, but although he strains mightily, he can't make the stream reach the wastebasket on the other side, so he pretty much urinates all over the auditor's desk.
The auditor leaps with joy, realizing that he has just turned a major loss into a huge win.
But Grandpa's own attorney moans and puts his head in his hands.
'Are you okay?' the auditor asks.
'Not really,' says the attorney. 'This morning, when Grandpa told me he'd been summoned for an audit, he bet me twenty-five thousand dollars that he could come in here and piss all over your desk and that you'd be happy about it!'
Don't Mess with Old People!!

Posted by: InsertSnappyNameHere at October 13, 2009 3:28 PM
so i went to my old doctor in chelsea because it;s closer to work and it's open 24/7 now! it's kind of a walk-in clinic a bit on the ghetto side, i never realized that before til today. first off i was there waiting like 3 hours, then an hour stuck in a tiny room and i almost filled my bag with bandaids and tongue depressors but i was afraid there was a hidden camera in the room. anyway, when i signed up on the walk-in sheet i looked at the people ahead of me and someone was signed in, and in the comments section it said 'bedbug bites' ugh! i scanned around the waiting room trying to guess which person was the one with possible bed bugs on them. i clutched my bag as close to my body the whole time and when i left i shook all my clothes out just in case!
anyway, i was prescribed three drugs.. an anti inflammatory, a muscle relaxor (wound up giving myself a muscle spasm from coughing so much and hard.. i can hardly move my head it hurt so bad (last night i thought i caused a collapsed lung, but it was just a muscle spasm) also a giant drama queen came into the clinic screaming and moaning saying he had back spasms lol. i never saw anyone act like that before, they asked if he was having heart problems or smoething then i think they just sent him to the hospital. i heard all this from the little room i was stuck in for an hour.
ugh, and the third thing they prescribed was an inhaler for a month, advair. the damn thing cost me 161 dollars at the pharmacy!!!! the other two prescriptions werent that expensive. apparently i have smoe kind of resipratory infection or something. they didnt even look in my throat. he just listened to my breathing and asked me if i knew i wheezed. :-/ i asked him what wheezing was (he didnt answer), and then told me to quit smoking. double ugh. so i guess i really do have to quit, especially after this horrible whatever it is i have, he really didnt even say. i guess it's not contagious or anything so that's good. i dont know how im going to quit smoking, it's my third most favorite thing to do in the entire world!!
i feel like such a skeezey trashbag.

That's not meant to be an antagonistic statement, that's just how I feel at the moment, and I don't pretend to smile when I feel that way. That's just me.

Nice throwback thread, biff. Reminds me of how the OT started. We all waited for THL to post some Mill Basin piece of fabulousness on the HOTD thread and then the hijacking er hijinks ensued. Nice to be reminded that propjoe was an equal opportunity bigot, not just anti-semitic, and that the rest of us were merely taste-ist. Amazing to think that from such inauspicious lows, the OT could yet fall so far.

Slopefarm;
As 6 years pointed out at the end of the Dyker Heights thread, if you ever want to know why the democrats can't capture the red states, look no further. I don't mean that in an antagonistic way (believe it or not). My grandfather and father were staunch democrats (though my father later switched to conservative as time went by). He, like I, felt that the party had left me.
Though we have different political philosophies, I share your concern about how the middle has vanished. Once again, I would advise you: look no further than that thread.

Posted by: InsertSnappyNameHere at October 13, 2009 4:09 PM
the doctor didnt mention bronchitis. he didnt exactly say much of anything other than saying i was wheezing and that the pain i had was a spasm from the intense coughing. im reading the possible side effects of this inhaler and im like wtf!?
these side effects are i went to the doctor anyway!
increase in music
change in mucus color
fever
chills
increased cough
increased breathing complications
rash
hives swelling of the face,mouth, and tongue
breathing problems (wtf?)
increased blood pressure
a fast and irregular heartbeat
chest pain
headache
tremor
nervousness
weakened immune system and a higher chance for infections
lower bone mineral density
eye problems including glaucoma and cataracts
slowed growth in children (well at least i dont have to worry about THAT one) :-/
the damn thing costs more than a used xbox360! and it might cause all that crazy stuff? im gonna use it because it was s oexpensive but im afraid :( i have a followup appointment next tuesday though. im sure that's when he tells me i have emphashema or lung cancer or something and im going to be that annoying person with no nose whose commercial runs like every 2 minutes on every channel.
the reason i said i felt like a skeezy trashbag earlier is because ive noticed that when a doctor finds out your a smoker, you get treated worse like youre some kind of leper who deserves what happens to you and that youre wasting their time, which is kind of how i felt today and got that impression from him, and other doctors in the past actually for various related things. and in a sense i can totally understand that, but it still sucks.
the thing is that i know it should be easy to quit, and i hate that people seem to make a big deal about it because if i quit i do not want my entire to revolve around quitting smoking, that's just annoying. plus if i gain the inevitable 10-15 pounds that comes with it i don't think i'd be very happy and would just want to smoke again. gaaah. i think im going to ask for a prescription for Chantix to see how it goes. the gum and patches didnt help me. the gum was okay to replace cigs for a day or so, and the patch helped for like 3 days max at one time, but the patches made me feel sick.. tho i know when you quit smoking you do wind up getting pretty sick. i think i need someone to literally beat me into not smoking or something.

benson,
I hear you, and sometimes I do roll my eyes (ears?) at the tone deafness of some on the liberal side. (I will refrain here from saying what I think about some on the other side, but you can guess.) But there is a bunch of gray area in that thread. For example, propjoe wrote some of the most overtly anti-Italian garbage. I would hardly assume he is a liberal democrat. Who knows what he is? Also, is there room to mock architecture on a real estate blog without engaging in offensive cultural stereotyping? It can descend into cultural condescension really fast but I am not sure where the line is absent truly bigoted statements. Not to mention all the cracks about stroller moms and c-f everytime the Slope comes up. Sometimes Mr. B was accused of race/class warfare for postings about crime in Clinton Hill. Sometimes for not posting. So there is a lot of stereotyping and sensitivity to go around.
Nonetheless, I am glad you keep posting about the good things to be found in the outer parts of southern Brooklyn.

on a lighter note while i was waiting for my prescriptions to be filled i decided to treat myself to lunch. ugh, of all the places to eat in chelsea i chose to go to pizza hut because their pasta in a bread bowl ad in the window looked good. ugh. it was SO bad. i wound up not even wanting to eat the bowl (which is made of bread). i chose the three cheese macaroni and cheese, but i only tasted one cheese!

Slopefarm;
I agree with alot of what you say, and feel like I have the same temperament, though it doesn't come across on this blog (it seems).
There is no doubt that there is a fine line between good-natured parody and condescension. One doesn't want a PC regime (in either direction). Parody is a good thing.
I may be wrong, but I think that we are WAY over the line in this thread. Just note one thing: at the time of this Dyker Heights thread, PropJoe was already a well-known commodity, and he was practically persona non grata. As opposed to most threads back in that time (and I was around alot back then) note that PropJoe is given almost a hero's welcome in this one. You are right - we can't guess at PropJoe's political afiliation (in fact, even his race and ethnicity were in question) but we can be certain of the leanings of the large majority of folks who were applauding him.

I'm leaving the last word to you regarding that thread, benson.
Re: temperament, I think that is a hard thing to manage in exchanges on a blog, or in email for that matter. There's a lot of nonverbal signaling that goes on face to face that keeps things civil that gets lost in these anonymous places. Sometimes I watch exchanges here go ballistic (I am not specifically referring to you and bx, it has happened with lots of folks) and I can't quite figure out what triggered the escalation (I've gone a little nuts here too, sometimes, and I sometimes can't figure out why afterwards). It's often hard to dial it back afterwards.

By the way, along the lines of what we've been talking about, I'd recommend 2 other books to you:
1) "Bowling Alone: The Collapse and Revival of American Community" by Robert Putnam (a great book).
2) "The Bell Curve" by Charles Murray. This was a controversial book, because of some statements he made in it. However, what eas overlooked was his analysis of "The Great Sort" that you talk about.

THL and Arkady (and to others);
I'll repeat it for the umpteemth time: this is an open thread. I will post what I please. If you don't like me, so be it. I'm tired of people making it personal, and I'm not going to respond to it anymore.
If you want to argue with my ideas, I would love to engage with you as I've just done with Slopefarm in a civilized manner. I like to argue about ideas.
Finally, in an OT, you always have the option of just ignoring what I write. If you think I am prostelytizing on the OT, just walk past me like I do when I encounter a soapbox preacher that don't interest me. If I encounter a preacher who condemns my actions, I am not obligated to engage him.
I ignore some people's posts, because they don't interest me. I don't announce it, I don't get nasty with the person, I just look for stuff that does interest me.
Posted by: benson at October 13, 2009 5:04 PM

benson- someone welcomed propjoe?? Not that I ever saw and I went after him plenty for his comments. But this is what you always do- you fling out accusations and then take offense when people reply- if you want to know why I go ballistic on you, look at your behavior and the way you write. take a look back at those posts where you went after BRG, or THL or MM.

It is the largest country in Africa and in the Arab World,[4] and tenth largest in the world by area. It is bordered by Egypt to the north, the Red Sea to the northeast, Eritrea and Ethiopia to the east, Kenya and Uganda to the southeast, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the Central African Republic to the southwest, Chad to the west and Libya to the northwest. The world's longest river, the Nile, bisects the country from south to north.[5]
It's also where all of the world's supply of gum arabic comes from!!!

Bxgrl;
Please see that DH thread. I'll snip out just some of the statements that went out:
"GROSS! Has Dirty Jersey Guido written all over this mess. I imagine the wife drives a massive SUV, doesn't work, has friend's who work at hair salons & she wears leopard print thinking it's great fashion sense. The hubby definitely works in "cash business" & the 2 sons are straight up "Joey's" who tan, 'roid it up & barely graduated HS though they do drive BMW 382i with mad rims. On a positive, the daughter is smokin hott. God, what bad taste some people have...

Where's the hott italian daughter at? Can we git a looks at her?

(No, DH, different countries. Sudan is my 3rd choice for largest country, followed by Algeria, Nigeria and Egypt)
Posted by: CarrollGardened at October 13, 2009 5:16 PM
but my point is that nobody likes to be proven wrong, and nobody seems to be content with anything less than getting in the last word. so these things drag on way longer. you seem like a nice lady, i really do mean that. so i am just hoping that you can be the bigger person for the sake of the larger good. come on now..... think happy thoughts :)

From the DH thread (I left off the names of the posters, because I am not trying to focus on anyone personally):
Quote #1 (written before PropJoe showed up on the scene)
"I bet this gets 100 posts before 3:00.
Lets see what PropJoe has to say about what kind of people cab afford this!!!"
Quote #2 (written after PropJoe made the above statements):
"Prop Joe
you are an @$$ (and I mean that as a compliment.)
Politically incorrect but I damn near soaked my desk with
the coffee that was in my mouth."
Also, as I wrote above: no one told him to shut up, as was the custom in nearly every other thread at that time.

I welcome a new start on the OT. Once again, I will repeat what I said above: if you don't like me, ignore me. If you want to argue with my ideas in a civil manner, by all means.
Bxgrl;
I am trying to rack my brains out as to where you might have seen that house. The clue is the salt marsh. I think that narrows it down to either Jamaica Bay or Staten Island. There are no salt marshes around Manhattan.
My guess is that you were taking a bridge brom Queens proper to Broad Channel Island (the Broad Channel bridge). There are a few isolated homes in the salt marshes of Broad Channel Island.
BTW: for those who have not been to Broad Channel Island, I heartily recommend it.

Benson, you hate political correctness, you say so all the time. With that in mind, why do you insist on it in threads where the subjects or comments offend you personally?
I'm offended by a lot of things that can occur on this blog. I happen to be pretty offended by the "sandy vagina" comments yucked over on the what's blog, and brought over here, comments NEVER repudiated by you, I might add. Where's the outrage over that?
Long story long, there are a lot of topics and comments that offend all of us. We can spend all day huffing and puffing over it, we can pick our battles for the ones that really matter, or we can ignore them all together. Everyone chooses how they deal. If everyone else does not choose to deal with it in the way that I think they should, or with the same zeal I have towards the subject, I chalk that up to the way it is. I don't feel the need to continually chastise everyone for not supporting or feeling the same way about my causes or issues. Why should they?

The new versions of instant mashies aren't bad at all. I got garlic mashed by Betty Cocker (?) and I made them as a side to scrambled eggs.
Tasted damn good. So good he's actually requested it since.

But THL, you know how to make anything taste good. Think what you could have done in pioneer days with muskrat and beaver ;)

"last one to leave needs to shut off the lights or else tomorrow we'll be arguing with each other over who is to blame for the electric bill"
As instructed, I'm shutting off the lights now, so don't blame me for the electric bill.
(ROFL re: the beaver, THL!)

*turns the lights back on*
EW look at all the roaches scurry! thanks for the advice today guys. and i guess my mac and cheese lunch was a really bad idea, no wonder i was coughing like a maniac after that even tho i was fine for a few hours. i bought a bunch of soup, didnt see the dairy comment cuz i left to the supermarket before that, so i wont eat the new england clam chowder, but the rest are non dairy, think ill have the regular clam chowder? one of those, not the white one. they were 2 big progresso soups on sale for 4 bux so i bought a bunch for lunch this week.
thinking about turning the lights off before i leave, but ill leave them on so i can see who blames who tomorrow.
*rob*

*rob*, I'm turning off the lights so Snappy doesn't yell at me, you don't get stuck with the electric bill, and the roaches feel comfortable to come out and finish your Clam Chowder.
