Indeed... and this is only a few of the buildings; the majority of that area of the entire campus is the same Gothic style, including the old parts of the hospital.
Thanks- but Come on, that's a sure jinx! I'll be happy to wear Anything if I get in.
Tomasso: Great Pics, love the ivy, thanks...

Wish I had an MP3 to post; you don't really "hear" the low notes, they just feel like earth tremors

Gothic- pics from the inside
Haversack: Fascinating. From Wikipedia: "The movement had significant influence throughout the United Kingdom as well as in Europe and North America, and perhaps more Gothic architecture was built in nineteenth and twentieth centuries than had originally ever been...
What other DVD releases can you add to this list, that have an equal level of hi-def restoration?:
- The Maltese Falcon (1941, WB 3-disc edition)
- Metropolis (1927, Kino edition ONLY) --> haven't seen this but a local friend said it qualifies
- The Third Man (1949, Criterion, 2-disc...
Most things I really like, that's not from America, always seems to turn out being from Paris, or France: architecture, art, music...

Can't wait to get there...
Oh, I have NO intention of joining in! The idea of random purposeless shoving / fighting does nothing for me at all. Just going there mainly cause my friends I'm catching up with *so* want me to go with them at least once. We all plan on hanging out to the sidelines.
'Course, judging from...
When's the last time you've done something completely different or outside your normal realm of taste, just to find out if you love it or hate it? Or, just because you feel in need of a mind-cleansing experience?
I've recently run into friends I knew from elementary school days in the NC...

For fans of Gothic architecture: Construction on the Duke University Chapel in Durham, NC (the school's national...
Nice work for $8! Don't think you can have a 78 collection representative of pop tastes in America in that era w/o Sentimental Journey & White Christmas. Frenesi is a fave, since it's one of the first I heard in elementary school when just discovering swing.
And Jo Stafford: As I said in...
Been trying lots of new things recently; coworkers suggested I'd enjoy reading more classic mystery.
Found this page off Wikipedia's "Mystery Fiction" page to be a most promising guide: mainly because it identifies schools of different styles of mystery, for a broad sampling of every kind...
Mine:
"Recreational activity you're not an expertat currently, but harbor secret plans to be": social dancing

Didn't even make it to shooting many 1950s cars this time. More 70s cars; some actually look real good in showroom condition. Kept making me think of blacksploitation movies & Curtis Mayfield. Wakka-chikka...
