Via Garibaldi 8

Well I didn't really start using the line until I was a teenager to go to the city. The train then ran just OK and ran pretty much how the current does. Eventually the became the local and then eventually they added more service on the line and now I think it runs alright. The sucks though. Too infrequent.

I want some peta bread... Is that your speciality? lol

Wow... You're charging SAKS prices... lol... The "via KAPPOCK ST" is still a bit funky. I think I'm going to stick with the old one you made. It looks somewhat closer to the image below... How come your VIA KAPPOCK ST is so much different from the one below??

lol... No worries mate.

lol... Well it's not like your "job" or anything... Take your time... Whenever you feel like doing them... :cool:

Why thank you kind sir. :smile:

lol...

lol... At that point I stumbled out of the bar I was in in disgust and hailed down an off duty taxi to the express bus. Yeah... shitty way to end indeed...

All I remember seeing was the cheapshot by the Latino guy and then in between being in a half stuper, I saw the knockout cheapsot by Mayweather... I guess it was payback

Got my earbuds last night in the mail... The Weston ones are MADE IN USA and sound way better than the Bose earbuds, so of course I'm returning the Bose earbuds today and getting a refund. :cool:

Well, I went to the Bose store today by Columbus Circle and picked up a pair of Bose earbuds... It seems as if they make all of them in Mexico now... I got a pair for $141.00 or so with tax, BUT I think I'm going to return them once I find a Made in USA pair. There's a brand called Weston that makes earbuds here in the US, and it seems as if the sound quality is superior to Bose. For almost $150.00, I was expecting a bit more in terms of the build of these and the sound quality. The Weston's cost about $200.00, but I'm sure they'll be worth it and they're MADE in USA. Shure is also supposedly good, but I believe just about most if not all of their headphones are also Made in Mexico.

Hey, I'm going to the Bose store tomorrow over by Columbus Circle and I was wondering if you think that any of the earbud style headphones will be "Made in USA"? I'm really hoping so because I don't want the big ones. In any event, I'm going there and will be asking to see their "Made in USA" products and will be thoroughly inspecting the box and everything. :cool:

To answer your question about how I'd improve service on Staten Island, I'd start with better adherence to the schedule. There was a time when service was actually not that bad in terms of buses showing up when they were scheduled, but service has really gone downhill, especially with the local buses. Second I'd make every effort to make as much buses connect in sink with each other as possible. Currently too many bus lines just run with no regard to making connections and considering the long waits on most lines this would help speed up commutes considerably and increase reliability without adding any service at all. How would you improve service on Staten Island?

Well these look grand to me mate! Wunderbar as they say in German! :cool:

I meant to mention that the pixels on both signs look weird. Right where the "w" in Downtown appears, you can see that the pixels looks smaller there. Same thing with the BM4 sign. It only appears sometimes though, but I notice that these signs are "pngs" instead of "gifs". Not sure if that has anything to do with it?

Woo hoo! Better not say that too loud though... I was the only one that felth that earthquake in the entire office.

Thank you kind sir... Very nice work!! Very pleased with these new ones... :cool:

Woo hoo! Thank you very much kind sir.

Woo hoo! These look great!! Many thanks mate! :cool:

No arguments from me on that one... Besides, you can go whenever. You should try to go before the summer is over though... Nice quiet neighborhood. I haven't been in Mill Basin in some years, but the area hasn' changed much.

Excellent... Many thanks!

Hey dude, I am in need of some earbuds... I was wondering if you knew of any "Made in USA" ones?

I'm glad we had that whole express bus discussion. You know that one of the reasons I joined was because I was checking out one of the express bus threads you had started and I was so pissed off by some of the comments from others. I figured I had to come and speak up for express bus riders...

Hey do you ever play chess in Bryant Park?
