Dear Liza, dear Liza
Anyone know why there’s a big gaping hole in the Aud? It’s been like this for a week or so.

No, we haven’t disappeared off the face of the Earth. We have been watching Planet Earth, but that’s as inconsequential as what happened thousands of years ago before Sigourney Weaver. So here’s some stuff that has been going on: Condolences to Amanda’s friend Amy, who lost her grandmother this week Congrats to my sister, who…
I’ve always wondered what this building was, because I drive by it every day. Now, thanks to Buffalo Rising, I know. Update: Thanks to a commentor for posting this link to a UE’rs photographs of the inside. Looks to be in much worse shape than the Terminal, but hard to tell whether it’s salvageable or…
Finally! I’ve had this project on my to-do list since I launched version 4 of Punaro.com. Now you can see larger versions of all the photos used in the Punaro.com banner in this slideshow on Flickr. Clicking on a photo will display more information about it. I also updated the banner, swapping out some old…
#1 – Videos from Design of Everyday Things [Don Norman’s jnd.org] One upon a time, many years ago — 1994 to be precise — The Voyager Company produced a delightful CD-ROM that included copies of several of my books (“Design of Everyday Things,” “Things that Make Us Smart,” and “Turn Signals Are the Facial Expressions…
Recently moving up to the top of my “What car am I going to buy next?” list was the Subaru Impreza WRX Sport Wagon. I’ve been looking for a car with a little more cargo room without sacrificing performance. I found this:
I noticed a little graffiti in the hole there as well. The same thing happened to the large Ford plant building on Route 5 a few months ago. I think it was wind, and it took a while for that to get fixed.
There is graffitti in the hole. I wasn’t sure if the hole was created by hooligans to show off their work, or if the hole was created by workers or wind and just exposed existing graffitti.
It’s cheap way of performing asbestos remediation. Knock a hole in the wall and it will just blow on out. 🙂
I’ve been trying to take a closer look as I drive by and my guess is that someone got into the building, got up there on the inside, spray painted the concrete block wall which looks to be very close to the exterior metal panel wall, and then knocked the panel out. I’ll try to get better pictures.
I gotta give you credit for being able to take this photo while driving on the Skyway. Do you think this is some elaborate work of a graffitti artist? Maybe…
Hang onto the damn wheel!!!
You guys make it sound so difficult. I just held my phone up to the window, clicked, and got the shot I got. It’s not like I was looking through a viewfinder, focusing, selecting the proper shutter, aperture, and ISO speed settings, and then taking the shot. Traffic was slow anyways because it was exiting.
