  • (And probably will.)

  • New York needs Frank Gehry like a fish needs a bicycle (sorry, Gloria).

    Like George Pataki needs another asshole.

    Like Mike Bloomberg needs to be shorter.

    Like NY needs another hack poser.

    (I could go on all day.)

  • Here's a response to Jonathan Lethem's open letter to Frank Gehry regarding the Atlantic Yards project in Brooklyn:

    Every major urban architectural development should be subject to popular criticism, but in this particular case the critics may be trying to slam the door on a truly positive and exciting proposal. New York City needs Frank Gehry's artistry!

  • cute , i dropped in via the bloggie awards 2004 , not many of the blogs are alive anymore.

    so clap clap , cityslackers , guess y do well.

    still weird you guys type on a piece of land we sold to the brits, because we couldnt use it.

  • I'll support George W. Bush fully if he revokes Frank Gehry's citizenship, returns him to Canada where he can manage a Canadian Tire in Moose Jaw for the rest of his life.
