Not huge, but hardly a pit. Philly doesn't allow skyscraper building, hasn't since the 80s.




Harrisburg is very small, but the skyline is quite pretty.

I should scan some of the pictures I have taken.

Skyline bullshit

You people, with your silly skyline comparisons embarrass yourselves and, frankly, you embarrass me. I'm surprised no one from DC has come along to post the skyline for the "city with the best skyline where no building is over 15 stories" yet.*

Once you finish with your biggest dick, er I mean building, competition and your most scenic downtown extravaganza you will all realize that there is only one city skyline that was thought of highly enough to be promenently featured in a cheesy 1980s nighttime soap opera. And that skyline is presented below:




*This is a trick on my part, as no one actually is from DC

Do they have historical importance?

Boston is important because I'm there. I have no idea why Philadelphia exists.

(Note, I'm not dissing Harrisburg here, it looks like an A No. 1 Class B town).

My morning shower view of St. Helens, pink from the rising sun, has also been fantastic. Yesterday morning was so clear I could see Rainier too.

Those were pictures of Philly not Harrisburg. I figure you are joking on the whole historical importance thing.


Here is Harrisburg but it isn't a good shot. Most of what is pretty is when you can see it against the water.

Funny, when I google for the Harrisburg Skyline, this is what I get:

Ah yes, TMI. If your city had had the most serious nuclear disaster in this country, well, ever, then that would be what showed up when you googled too.

I love the fact the planes still fly right over it when we come into the city. It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy about the security.

Still, that is in fact not part of the Harrisburg skyline. It's really in middletown I think.

Skyline extravaganza and all that

Come on, people, it's Friday. Enough of this skyline crap, chimples, rude behavior and sitcoms (except for Three's Company, which I believe qualifies as a titcom). And flirting at work? NFW. Blech.

We're supposed to be flaming with impunity.

So, in honor of that, fuck you, fuck you all!

Are you sure that wasn't a sitcom?

I am sure I will hear if and when you pass the bar, not bc I care, but bc sometimes people say things when there is nothing else to talk about
When Martha makes her reappearance in the living room, she has changed her clothes into something more comfortable and voluptuous, slacks and a tawdry, tight-fitting blouse - something she rarely does according to George: "Martha is not changing for me. Martha hasn't changed for me in years. If Martha is changing, it means we're gonna be here for days. You are being accorded an honor..." George calls her new attire her "Sunday chapel dress." Martha lets more sparks fly by bawdily insulting her husband's position in the History Department:


"George is bogged down in the History Department. He's an old bog in the History Department, that's what George is. A bog...A fen...A G.D. swamp. Ha, ha, ha, ha, A Swamp. Hey, swamp. Hey, SWAMPY!"
Learning that Nick was both a quarterback and a former intercollegiate state middleweight boxing champion, Martha makes lascivious, obscene advances toward the attractive young man. She taunts him: "You still look like you have a pretty good body now, too, is that right? Have you?...Is that right? Have you kept your body?" Even Honey naively encourages her observations about his studly body: "Yes, he has a very firm body." Martha describes how her own "paunchy" husband doesn't like "body talk. 'Paunchy' here isn't too happy when the conversation moves to muscle."

If that's what Harrisburg's industrial wasteland/environmental disaster area looks like, it's doing pretty fucking well. Take a gander at Gary sometime.

Merry Christmas!

No, fucking them is a clear quid pro quo. Merely flirting with them is not.
