'The Message'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I'm sorry, Amy, I didn't mean to sound flip about an understandably upsetting situation. I'm just kind of freaking out about it.
Yikes. Didn't realize it was quite that bad.
Yeah, there was the 13 murders in 13 days, and now there's been 7 murders in 4 days. OMJEEZUS.
No problems in the tourism district, though. I'm pretty sure that's where all the cops are.
Jesus, Nora. That's terrible.
It really, really is.
We got under 200 this past year. And I think only 10 so far this year. Yay? Most of the time I've lived here, it ranks pretty close to one a day.
No problems in the tourism district, though. I'm pretty sure that's where all the cops are.
Yeah, Jamaica's like that. No one wants to hurt the white tourists. With black tourists, it's nothing particular, but it is hard to tell.
I don't know what the numbers in LA are (or how any of these figure per capita), but speaking of capita, there was that one dismembered guy that somehow felt creepier than so many of the rest...
Memphis used to do better than one a day on average, which gave my mom fits no matter how much I reassured her that the victims weren't generally people living in secured buildings or out eating at sushi bars and shopping at Macys. Somehow she never worried after college when I lived in a slum next where you'd frequently hear people firing their guns in celebration.
Speaking of Memphis, I made good on my plans to head there for Michael Fassbender Movie Day (both were very good) and then had seared duck breast, leeks, and lemon crème brûlée at Napa Cafe. Ahhh, so good.
I had a large gift certificate, and my Sprint contract was up, so I got an iPhone for $100.
I have a question, maybe this belongs in tech? I want to make a couple of ringtones, and I followed the instructions, but I'm unable to use any snippets of songs (convert to an ACC) because they are protected files. Is there a way around this?
We should have an arts and crafts thread. Not like MInearverse. A proper one. And, in it, I'd put this guide to smoke in your digital photography. It totally would belong there.
I use Myxer. Free and I've had no problems. There's even an app that is also free. But I have better results online. More precision.
There were apparently 63 murders in Boston in 2011. And Boston is almost twice as big as New Orleans.
