  Is it too much?

Statue

[Image: 1631777.jpg]

My first impression when I saw this was, Damn that's really intense. It's a statue based on the image of a woman falling from the WTC.

Seems a few people complained and almost instantly the property managers chose to curtain it off and have it removed rather than risk offending people.

So, what we have is a very intense, raw, and possibly disturbing image of 9/11. And yes, I think this could be quite painful to view for people who lost loved ones. Loved ones who may have jumped themselves.

But, I also think it's art. Art isn't all about feeling nice. It's also about evoking the full range of emotions. Perhaps a public venue where people will view it wether they want to or not isn't the most appropriate, but it is a piece that deserves a viewing in a gallery dedicated to 9/11 inspired art.

What do you think?

Finally...

Quote:(AP) After a lengthy 3 day absence, <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.cdih.net">http://www.cdih.net</a><!-- m --> has finally returned for so many who call this their message board home. Upon interviewing a member of the site (who asked to remain nameless) she had this to say:

"I need my cdih fix"

That is all.

Since all the shortbus faggots are gone cause they are too good for us, they 'have lives'. We figured there is no point to the forum anymore. So as the forum says, "your idea here".

We need a new forum and it's up to all of you to figure out what it should be called. We leave it in your hands, we will pick the one which is the best and most original.

  Contacts - Those fuckin things
Posted by: Gooch - 09-16-2002, 07:26 PM - Forum: The Pit - Replies (19)

I've been wearing glasses since I was 5 years old...and finally bought contacts just this past weekend. I find them Hell to put in my eye...and today has been pure frustration. Then, as I tried to put the cocksucking motherfuckin lens into my right eye for must have been the tenth try, I spied a tear in it. The fuckin thing is already torn. These contacts are Toric lenses...and expensive...and they are supposed to last at least two months...and it's torn on the 2nd day I'm using them. I have a bad feeling I just wasted $300 with the contact eye exam, and lenses. :-( :-( :-(

Just like jeapordy. I post an answer, the next person posts a humorous question to go with the answer and then posts an answer for the next person to come up with a question to.

Example:

Me: A standard Dent thread
You: What is really sucks?
You: Maynard's dog
Next person: .......

You get the idea.

To start it off:

Maynard's dog.

  Motivation - In the office or in life.
Posted by: Kid Afrika - 09-16-2002, 06:00 PM - Forum: The Pit - Replies (16)

Today I'm finding it very hard to get motivated. I came in all gung ho and ready to get some shit done today, only to find that half of our office is out today. And, my counterpart decided he wasn't coming in because he's still jet-lagged.

How do you motivate yourself when people around you are lolligaggin' and draggin' ass?

Or, do you sink to their level and not get shit done?
