You mean regular people don't wear Chronicles Of Never :confused:

I wear CoN and I'm pretty regular. But then again, I eat plenty of fiber.

You're lucky then man, those Franz tickets are expensive. Born Ruffians are opening (a great band), and I will be there

[Guest starthere]

751 TONIGHT. Holy fuck it's going to be dope. See y'all there.

A couple things I want to sell quick:

CDG size SS (28-30) black dress pants $55. They do not fit over my butt.

Miu Miu dress shirt kinda like grey purple stripe. Nice pattern, but doesn't fit around my chest. 15-1/2, but fits very slim in the chest. $30,

down for the CDG dress pants.

hi

[cinderella]

hello! my brother is competing in the ontario skills competition on tuesday and he needs to make prints of his photographs sized 12x18 inches. He went to send them to blacks but the notice said they would be ready in 15 days. wtf.

is this true? if so, where else could he have them developed?

[gramps]

That's stupid. Is he downtown? There's two places at Yonge & Elm (one on the corner, one on Elm down a few, can't recall the names.) that I always get my film developed at and it's very prompt. They sometimes scratch the negatives, though.

[jack napier]

there's two good places i know of - neither name springs immediately to mind.

one is on st. mary street (two south of bay and bloor), on the north side, just west of yonge.

the other is on elm street (just above dundas, i think), but on the south side, and about the same distance from yonge.

i've had black & white, etc. developed at both and in decent time, but i'd trust the first one a little bit more...

[cinderella]

im mostly curious because the blacks by my house does a good job, and is usually pretty quick, so does it actually take THAT much longer to develop 2 large pictures instead of 489303 small ones? I dont really understand how it works in a professional place like that but dont they just use printers these days? :/

thanks for the suggestions!!

That's the one. I think it's either called Akon (like the Konvict) or Avon (like the Kosmetic.)

[gramps]

How did that go? Did you get any soap-in-sock lights out massages?

[homi29]

wondering if anyones work was hiring, im in need of a job

[canice]

yo black's doesn't print large format in house. they basically send it out to their evil lab where they print shit photos.

go to toronto image works. you'll pay more, but it'll take less time and they'll look better because they know what they're doing.

[drip]

[showbiz00ditc]

just finished parting up a bike.

anyone have a good place for me to look for bike rules and reg's in Toronto.

[gramps]

Do you mean like this?

[showbiz00ditc]

ya thanks gramps thats along the lines of what i was looking for

but fuck how strictly are these inforced?

i can see multiple charges i could get before getting on my bike

and whats the deal with riding on sidewalks?

[gramps]

I've heard of people getting fined for riding on crowded sidewalks. I think someone I know around a fifty buck one once. As for the others, I have neither a bell nor lights and I've never been stopped. I think it's only if you are unlucky enough to run afoul a stickler cop.

[jack napier]

don't be riding on sidewalks unless you can't avoid it. generally a bitch move.

best thing to remember is look in the mirrors of parked cars you're passing to see if there are people in them. they usually don't see you, and if you don't see them before that door comes open, you're done...

i bike everywhere without any regulation stuff and i've never been stopped. bike cops are usually easy to spot, and cops in cruisers usually don't bother with bikers unless its serious.
