Still parked on the lawn
Category: church of the ascension
The car is back in the lawn.

Parking on the grass is definately illegal. This morning I called the city to confirm.

Just in case the church "doesn't know which this is." I am adding a license number.

GET EM' PAUL!!!

You really need to start using the term "eye sore" when you're addressing this parking situation with officals. It sounds soo much more political. Or call a towe truck company.

Remuddled or Original
Category: architecture
I am sure this place looked much nicer when it was red brick. The thing I wonder most is, what was up with the front entrance. Clearly the top stone appears fancy but then the inner brickwork which narrows the passage is so ugly. What's the deal?

a. Simply a remudle added onblater to support it?
b. It just looked better in red brick?
c. It never looked good?

Oops I think I got over zealous with the carpark pics. I removed them, lol. Thanks for noticing.

Where is this? And why are the illegal carpark pics in this journal? (Can you see them or is it just me?)

I vote "remudle" My guess is the original door had side windows and a top window framing the door. Otherwise, it doesn't make sense.

Parking on the lawn
Category: church of the ascension
(e:Matthew) talked on the phone with the warden from the church last night. The guy sounded surprised people parked on the lawn. Then this morning as I left for work - another car on the lawn.

Who the fuck thinks it's normal to park on the lawn in an urban setting? Especially one with plenty of free street parking and even a spot in the driveway right next to it.

It is so trashy looking, not that the grounds at the church can look much trashier at this point with all the grass ripped up from the plow and the leaves from last year having destroyed the remaining grass.

Internet Issue?
Category: estrip
Weird, our internet went down for like 20 minutes. Well not all connectivity - but all domain resolution on each computer at once. They are all trusting the router, which in turn uses time warner's DNS. Then it suddenly came back up. The weird thing is amazon and buffalo rising worked the whole time.

Primary DNS Server: 24.92.226.11
Secondary DNS Server: 24.92.226.12

Maybe I should switch back to opendns.

I've been using Google Public DNS for a couple of years now with no problems. I had problems with Time-Warner DNS before that. Including redirecting my google search to a Time-Warner-branded search page (for my convenience and safety, of course) without asking me first.

I switched over to opendns and it seems to have resolved it for now
