2008-11-29 Thread justifiedright
Leaving CH Friday night.  At Ocean and 4th I almost ran over 3 people 
crossing. Had to slam on my brakes.

I could not see them until they were in my headlights.

Why?

Too damned dark.  No sight of them when they were still at the curb.

NEED BRIGHT LIGHTS!

Case closed.

Re: [AsburyPark] Re: Why is it we miss a simple "attraction" to AP???

2008-11-29 Thread charlie
"And why must everything be designed in 'suburban-stucco- modern' 
architechture ?

I'm still picturing that bandstand building, how badly it was 
butchered architecturally.

And how easy it would have been to preserve it as the really unique 
piece of AP that it is. It would still be occupied by the same 
businesses. Nothing would be different except it would look like its 
supposed to, like it was designed to be.
 
 I don't mind the modern boardwalk buildings.  I like them.  Were the 
previous buildings made of brick really that different then what was going up 
around them at the time?  I don't know, so i'm asking.  It seems like those 
types of bricks were popular during the time period.  Not a stand out matieral, 
that separted the boardwalk from other buildings around towns and citys.  I'm 
speaking about matiearls, not design.
 Preservation is one thing, but to say it would still be occupied by the 
same businesses is crazy.  It was empty other then HOJO?  HOJO's days were 
numbered as it was, not because of it's location, but the whole chain itself.
 I'm not up to date on how things were left with the bandshell.  I'm still 
thinking work was promissed on the lower half, and the upper half was set for a 
later date?

    One of my frienids works at the SP.  I think its days in its current 
location are numbered...  I wouldn't be surpised if during the roof 
renovations a large probem is discovered...then the whole building would be 
declaied unsafe!

[AsburyPark] Re: Happy Turkey Day..

2008-11-29 Thread Gabrielle Obre
When i saw all your posts yesterday newbee i ignored them. You simply
spew the same old BS over and over. I told myself I wouldn't read your
posts anymore...why would I? It would be like listening to a badly
raised child whine over and over.

We all know you think AP is a joke and a failure. You still haven't
produced the evidence that the redev was supposed to be done by now. 

When I mentioned the wernerization, I was not talking about anything
that happens on the board. The only little man on the board who
criticizes werner is another anonymous tool, maubdy. Apparently
criticizing werner is his/her only ability.

i sincerely doubt there are any powers that be posting here other than
the occasional mention of an event or biz advert. though maubdy may be
a really politically stupid anonymous one.

you don't like it here, so what. don't come. every weekend i am
reminded that lots of other people do love it here. will probably see
the evidence again tonight. your seeming obsession with the place
makes me sad for you. i have wondered what it would be like to ponder
a place i don't live in such a negative manner again and again. 

you feel slighted and misled by marketing? are you just waking up to
being an american? we are lied to and misled every single day of our
lives. being misled about a timeline for a waterfront redevelopment
means nothing to me compared to being misled about a war that has
killed hundreds of thousands of people...

which, Glenn, brings me to the AP/Beirut comparison. everytime i here
some fat and happily ignorant American make that comparison, I wish I
had the power to teleport them to a genuine war zone or third world
country and leave them there for a month. Only a willfully ignorant
American would make that comparison. I used to be one of them.

go find something that brings you pleasure newbee, or do something
about your profound chronic dissatisfaction. you've made your point.
ap doesn't satisfy you. it probably never will.

Thats a lot of bunk - major projects like your redevelopment are done 
all over the place - they dont advertise great success and then dont 
diliver.

They dont take 7 years to get minimally along either - or lie to the 
very people they are working for along with the customers they need 
to attract.

There are contracts, timetables, legal obligations.

When I first posted I asked why things were not done on the beach and 
I got jumped on. Thats got nothing to do with the people on this 
group. But noone has ever really answered that except to acknowledge 
it was a marketing ploy/lie.

I think Gab was on the right track in questioning the 'powers in 
charge'. Thats where the decissions are made but obviously 
questioners get, as Gab said, 'wernerized'

Seems that most everyone is just happy with the way things are and 
takes it while AP sinks economically.

I see asking questions as getting to the root of things not as you 
say "degrading the hope of a LOT of very hopeful people".

Geee.. This place is addictive, I think its the disbeleif that a mile 
of oceanfront could take so long and not feel the wrath of the 
taxpayers.
