i just tried to do it from yahoo photos and it would'nt link, is there any chance we could get attachements enabled on this thread?

Leto · 01-09-2006, 12:27 PM

yes Lucifer, that's Founder's Hall in Charlottetown. By the way, I encourage everybody to take in the exhibit there. A job well done by CBC reporter Adrienne Arsenault.

Your pic looks to be one of those sidewalk art sculptures that are scattered around Toronto, but I can't determine if it is there, or another city, by the background

I am not an expert in art, but fuck man, that place was incredible.

just to harp on this for a bit,

I was at the AGO over Christmas holidays (because my son's ARSE-HOLE of a teacher assigned a fucking massive project due on the 11th of jan - note to principal follows this post) and wanted to take pictures because he couldn't sketch the samples fast enough.

We were only allowed to snap shots, without a flash, of the Henry Moore sculpture garden room. I used my wife's phone to do it, and if i can figure out a way to get them off of the phone without costing 50 cents each (Charlatan? What's your method do you have a usb cable?) some of them may end up in this thread.

Charlatan · 01-09-2006, 12:40 PM

Leto, what kind of phone do you have?

Leto · 01-09-2006, 12:43 PM

She has the Motorola v551 (the MuchMusic edition from Rogers pay as you go plan)

Charlatan · 01-09-2006, 12:59 PM

Leto... bad news. Your phone can only download photos by sending them (according to the User Manual I just browsed).

Leto · 01-09-2006, 01:03 PM

I thought so. I looked at the manual too, but there seems to be the ability to use either a blue tooth dongle, or a usb cable (each of these cost upwards of $49).

they get you coming and going don't they?

Leto · 01-10-2006, 01:00 PM

**

No guesses or hints on Lucifer's pic?

fresnelly · 01-10-2006, 01:31 PM

There's a few of those guys around town. I think Lucifer's is on Dupont, East of Avenue road, but I'm not sure. I might just take a detour on the way to work tomorrow.

fresnelly · 01-11-2006, 09:15 AM

Nope. The spot I was thinking of, is empty.

This IS a hard one.

Leto · 01-11-2006, 09:22 AM

i agree. Lucifer! we need hints...

Lucifer · 01-11-2006, 10:32 AM

I'm just tickled to have stumped you guys. There are a few of those guys around town, I didn't know that there was one on Dupont, but I saw one in Yorkville while I was in Toronto. Big hint: (and this just really narrows it down for you guys who were paying attention in the early pages of this thread) this guy isn't in TO!

Tachion · 01-11-2006, 06:35 PM

Is that in Saint Johns? I can't remember the name of the premier of NewFoundland that died a few years back, Brian Peckford I think.

Its a guess because I don't remember exactly what he looked like...

Lucifer · 01-12-2006, 05:51 AM

mmmm, it's not in St. John's, and it's not Peckford, Tobin, or Williams. Although it does bear a striking resemblance to a stocky Smallwood

Leto · 01-12-2006, 06:55 AM

let me know if I am close to the mark anywhere:

- Halifax
- Charlottetown
- Saint John
- Moncton
- Fredericton

--- I don't think that the sculpture is a specific person, as the ones around toronto are fairly generic representations of rat race business men

*edit: your pic is no longer displayed....

Lucifer · 01-12-2006, 06:57 AM

Success! and thanks to Charlatan and Fresnelly for the tips. Does this narrow it down any?

Charlatan · 01-12-2006, 07:19 AM

Kingston, Ontario

Lucifer · 01-12-2006, 07:21 AM

Right Province, wrong town. C'mon Charly, we've been here before!

fresnelly · 01-12-2006, 07:30 AM

Ha! Good ol' google:

Goliger's Travel. Address: 9 King St. W. Cobourg

A couple of years ago in Toronto:

Charlatan · 01-12-2006, 07:33 AM

I was going to say Coburg but went with Kingston instead. There's a Goliger's in Kingston too...

Leto · 01-12-2006, 07:40 AM

Well... I'll have to pull this one out of my ass and go with:

7 to 9 King Street West, Cobourg, Ontario.

Only because I can triangulate in Google.

** edit.. damn! too late. don't it figure? no action on the thread for a couple of days, and then wham! we're all here!

Charlatan · 01-12-2006, 07:46 AM

Lakeshore Boulevard at Leslie... looking east.

Leto · 01-12-2006, 08:09 AM

OK here goes ( I took this one myself):

fresnelly · 01-12-2006, 08:20 AM

Flowerpot Island in Georgian Bay?

Leto · 01-12-2006, 08:25 AM

nooooooo. oh no it is not!

although the formation name is correct, the location is off.

Charlatan · 01-12-2006, 08:26 AM

Bay of Fundy, New Brunswick

Leto · 01-12-2006, 08:35 AM

Game on Charlatan, but can you pin point the location?

yes. i was there in August, and was duly impressed with the formations. I would have loved to stay longer, but it was about 4:30 pm, and I had a hotel reservation in Charlettetown to make...

Fly · 01-12-2006, 01:07 PM

hey Charley.

is that U.B.C's faculty of law?

Game on fly... that was the correct answer. But SPLCK also got it right (if in an abreviated version).
