Myk Murphy:
who wants a slivery brow? makeup is so strange these days.
(Mon Jan 26, 2004 - 9:29:35 am)
Froupie:
i've never used their make-up. but i made my boss change all the company soap and stuff to molton brown, so i get to use it all day long for free, heh.

Myk Murphy:
he's just taking it out of your paycheck, froupie. you and your fancy office.
(Mon Jan 26, 2004 - 9:30:33 am)
Froupie:
cmon myk i bet you've had a slivery brow...
(Mon Jan 26, 2004 - 9:30:43 am)
Myk Murphy:
well, maybe once, but i'd rather not discuss it.
(Mon Jan 26, 2004 - 9:31:10 am)
Myk Murphy:
both of you would have a laugh if you saw just how drab the offices in dc can be, especially the federal government and military. the pentagon, in particular, appears to be an overgrown elementary school from the 1940s.
(Mon Jan 26, 2004 - 9:33:22 am)
Froupie:
the pentagon eh. i thought you worked in a taffy factory? hmmm
(Mon Jan 26, 2004 - 9:35:01 am)
Myk Murphy:
i've worked everywhere in this town, froupie. plenty of taffy to be pulled. the pentagon was built during world war II, so it doesn't have much steel in it, but plenty of concrete. ramps everywhere, and not many stairs. many of the bathrooms have never been updated in 50 years, one can be certain.

bela:
I don't know, I don't even buy makeup either. I think its a scam all that crap. But I am in the process of making my friend over. She came with me to visit my mother this weekend and I didn't realize how frumpy she is. SHe is in the process of separating from her husband who sort of has drug problems. She told me she hasn't bought new clothes in 3 years. So I brought her shopping. THen she told me she needed to get mens' jeans because they're the only jeans that will fit her. Shes put on weight and shes almost 6 feet tall. I said men's jeans? No. So I'm going to help her get new clothes and I told her she needs to get a hair cut. Her hair is this big blond mess she wears in a messy ponytail all the time. She said, I'll cut it myself. I said, no. You have to get a professional trim from the woman that cuts my hair. Geesh. She says shes gone down hill because shes been verbally abused by her husband. She needs girl lessons really badly.

Lawrence Llewelyn-Bowen:
in need of a revamp eh....
(Mon Jan 26, 2004 - 9:44:22 am)
Myk Murphy:
to be fair, they're in the middle of a huge renovation, one side at a time. in fact, the structural improvements saved lives when the plane was flown in. by chance, the hijacker chose the more reinforced side.
(Mon Jan 26, 2004 - 9:44:35 am)
bela:
If some stupid creep tried to make me feel bad about myself and called me a bitch and an asshole that would make me just shop and girl around more. I don't know what her problem is really. At one point she was crying in the bar. I said stop it, enough put that crap behind you.
(Mon Jan 26, 2004 - 9:45:25 am)
Froupie:
its an ugly building, why don't they just knock it down and start again?
(Mon Jan 26, 2004 - 9:45:35 am)
Froupie:
cuts her own hair? good grief. no no no.
(Mon Jan 26, 2004 - 9:46:02 am)
Myk Murphy:
i think it's nice that you're helping her be girly again, bela. sounds like some tough love... "put that crap behind you" is good advice.
(Mon Jan 26, 2004 - 9:48:49 am)
Froupie:
it baffles me whenever i hear a woman say they havent bought any new clothes for years, even when my ex was shitty i used to go out shopping and spend all his money to make myself feel better. it works wonders.
(Mon Jan 26, 2004 - 9:49:48 am)
Myk Murphy:
its form follows function. it holds a hell of a lot of people, and it's an iconic place... i would hate to see it mothballed for a normal building. it does suck sometimes, however, when you have a meeting on the opposite side and you have only a few minutes to get there.

Froupie:
rollerskates
(Mon Jan 26, 2004 - 9:53:20 am)
Myk Murphy:
mrs murphy is way too frugal to compete with the likes of you two. she'd rather die than dump a bunch of cash on fancy shoes. she buys nice clothes, but only when there's a deal to be had.
(Mon Jan 26, 2004 - 9:53:59 am)
Froupie:
(Mon Jan 26, 2004 - 9:54:24 am)
Myk Murphy:
yeah, you'd do well with skates or rollerblades, or even a bike. only the maintenance guys get to use the electric carts.
(Mon Jan 26, 2004 - 9:55:17 am)
Froupie:
howabout a high speed monorail going around the outside of the building
(Mon Jan 26, 2004 - 9:56:11 am)
Froupie:
i might design one and send it to the pentagon, shall i mark it for your attention myk?
(Mon Jan 26, 2004 - 9:56:50 am)
Myk Murphy:
nope, my taffy pulling activities have me elsewhere. nowadays i have a sweet location right next to the Mall and Capitol and all that stuff. i can go see the lunar lander at Air 'n Space any time i want!
(Mon Jan 26, 2004 - 9:59:52 am)
Myk Murphy:
still, you should design it. the best part about the place is the huge courtyard in the middle. a pleasant place during the warm months, but the huge walls surrounding you on all sides can feel like a big prison.
(Mon Jan 26, 2004 - 10:01:30 am)
Froupie:
yeah it needs modifying, get a good architect in it will do wonders.
(Mon Jan 26, 2004 - 10:02:21 am)
Froupie:
concrete can be made to look interesting
(Mon Jan 26, 2004 - 10:03:43 am)
Myk Murphy:
that is interesting, certainly. back in june, i saw this large building going up (kinda near the City and St Paul's?) that looks like a dark faberge egg. i wonder what it was. lots of glass panels.
(Mon Jan 26, 2004 - 10:19:20 am)
Froupie:
this one?

Froupie:
or the new city hall?
(Mon Jan 26, 2004 - 10:24:25 am)
Myk Murphy:
the first one, that's it! the "egg-shaped bank building," as they call it. city hall looks way cool
