No. Thankfully not. They are on the thin side....European style. No big shoulders and calves to be seen...at least, not as many as you would see in a city in the heartland. In this regard, Montreal is a lot more like Europe than America....NO FAT CHICKS.

It took a while, but then I got it... Response to thread: Key Lime

1. those Romanesque limestone rowhouses are cool, but I like newer construction...I would be depressed living in something that musty and frumpy 2. Look at those cool buildings and the copper dome...I swear, Montreal looks especially good under gray skies...I don't know why 3. The Travelodge...AAARRRRGGGGHHHHH....not THIS time! Don't tell me you didn't have a GREAT time!

1. The Cathedral is weak on the outside but gorgeous on the inside. Celine can get married in the main church, the rest of the world has to get married in one of the small chapels in the back. 2. I love that overpass that looks at the Convention Center with the freeway (Autoroute Ville Marie) buzzing underneath 3. The leaves look pretty green. I will be there in about 1 week. Great pix. What a KICK-ASS city. If I was more resistant to cold weather, I think I would enjoy living there...after all, my friends call me the "welcome wagon" for foreigners....and there are lots of them in Montreal, right?

U of I - as in "Cham-bana?" - My "second" alma mater - a lot of work and not much of a fun time, right down to an ulcer! I usually remember things to great detail, but that is a place I want to forget and couldn't even tell you most of the street names anymore since I've purged that experience from my brain.

By the way, I think most people photograph better in a candid when they don't know their picture is being taken. I get fairly uptight in front of the camera. I like candids I've found myself in better than staged photos.

Hah..you, as an architect in the making, will have to deal with parking lot design around your buildings. That being said: if it's angled parking, I will pull in forward if it's 90 degree perpendicular to the drive aisle, I will do either, depending on what's easiest. if it's parking where the space beyond is unoccupied, I will definitely pull up the whole way so I can drive out forward. All of the rules of thumb regarding parking design are somewhat interesting. I deal with it about 3x a year.

Neither do I...I just have a good memory. :AH-HA_wink:

Pay attention to your studies, young man; however, I'm sure some of us would like to know how your college experience is treating you thus far. So chime in when you can, "college boy." That's UNIVERSITY to the Canadians on the board... Yeah, yeah, I know you know. Sidebar: I worked with a jerk who said that I would like working with a particular person at a client company because "he's college, like you" (meaning me, in this case). The guy who said it was a moron.

I LOVE that word, Sat... my response: befuddled

He's posted it numerous times: about 5'-5" ...I only remember because he's the same height as my Dad... Wazza matta u? Non ti ricordi?
