DT, JB and the President having a disagreement on Twitter could easily qualify as a Cat. 5.

Thanks Tip. My neighborhoods name changes to the Isle Of Cobble and I end up with 24 feet of waterfront or in property. My thoughts and hope are for all those in its path, Josh included. As always ....

This still doesn’t come close to what you gentlemen go through in the winter when the NE forum is in storm mode. You and Bx usually have to use a , howitzer to lighten that mood. As always ....

I remember 15 years ago, on the day my father passed, I found a plant in his entryway still in the mail wrapping. He was very much in love with my mother and even though she had passed 12 years previously he still bought and planted what he felt she would have liked. Sadly I decided to take it to my postage stamp back yard, plant it in a large pot and hope for the best. It gave out vigorous greenery and grew a bit each year, all in that same large pot. This past year I had to remove an oak that was doing poorly and prune a healthy one. Two oaks in my backyard is quite a feat. With one gone the portion of the yard with the plant received more sun. The pot was against the wall of my neighbor, the Kane street Synagogue. To my amazement, after 15 years, it bloomed, adorned with beautiful pink flowers. With all due respect to my wonderful neighbors I began calling it The Chosen Plant. 15 years in the wilderness, in a pot, going through the winters from 05-06 to 18-19, with no special care. My fishing buddy from Nassau County told me it was a Crepe Myrtle. This fall I’ll gently place it in the ground in a good sunny spot. Thank you Mom and Dad, as always ......

Well done with the lens. The one relatively young maple, tucked in a small space between brick walls to the back of me is still pure green. Considering our UHI effect, it may take awhile to convince the foliage that it’s time. As always ...

I can actually see the orange. Either it’s the power of suggestion or my peepers took a trip down memory lane. As always ....

Up an iceberg sized icicle, down a Ken doll. As always ....

For the answer to that you'll have to go the, what time did it really get dark? thread above. As always ....

OUCH. My charge was for towing, overnight stay for the car and a parking ticket for good measure. It still hurts to remember. In the decades to come the urban POV may be a rare site on the city streets. Be well, as always ....

I wouldn’t have have been surprised if they had offered to take you to the car pound. I have donated blood at the mobile outside the 76th Precinct ( nicknamed Hollywood ) a large number of Officers we’re donating. A wonderful group of men and women City, State and Nation wide. Did you get the car that night? When mine got towed it was costly, for the amount I paid to spring it I could have parked onstage. Congratulations on your new home, may it give you many decades of happiness and peace. As always ...

If only their innocence, loyalty and capacity to love could be easily learned. Apparently you found a way. As always .....

Thank you, it’s beautiful. Sadly many prisons, are of our own making. In my case the warden always tried to keep me out. As always ....

Don’t stress Big G. Follow the CPK lead. Put it anywhere. As always ......

Big G just outed the Forum. As always ......

I glance at the brick, the cement, the bars on my ground floor back windows, look at the struggling ailanthus (city stink tree) look at your pictures, breath in deep and dream. Based on my own tree rings, that’s a max cap fantasy. As always ....

Only a Police Officer would notice. Thank you for the heads up Anthony. I do enjoy both. As always ........

Now I understand why the lady on the commercial screams “LIES”. As always ....

It should be interesting to see how the CPK measure crew deal with Ragnarok. As always .....

If the previous Fast PAC Jet recurs, I hope the North East, Mid Atlantic zones and the continental shelf waters are on the pill. as always ....

“Love means you never have to say your sorry”. As always .....

Cross country sledding via Pennsylvania Avenue? As always.....

I’m with you, it certainly would be nice. Sadly I can also see myself wish-casting the warning area north of the Delmarva. As always ....

The ‘r’ must be missing. As always ....

Not to worry, that’s way beyond the CPK measure limit. As always ....

You kept doing it until you got it right. Along the way you kept stock of and kept close, all of your blessings. One of your blessings will join, in marriage, you and your beloved. A wonderful outcome. As always ....
