rearranger of things

[Alan James @AJAnotes]

@MarkJCarney You are disrespecting British Columbia to garner favors with Alberta. Canada is one country not just Alberta. Start acting for the entire country and don’t hide behind bogus energy claims.

[Alan James @AJAnotes]

@kbolan @VaughnPalmer You’ve come a long way since the Ubessy( sp?)

[Alan James @AJAnotes]

@BruceCarscadden @rodmickleburgh @NorthShoreNews Another in a series of wrong decisions,@BruceCarscadden

[Alan James @AJAnotes]

Ah yes… Fewer cars driving shorter distances actually helps environment.@BruceCarscadden

[Bruce Carscadden @BruceCarscadden]

@Lanefab Akin to bemoaning fuel costs without mentioning the environmental disaster associated with too many cars

[Alan James @AJAnotes]

@DouglasTodd @WestVanDistrict There’s a newly minted group of planners at the COV who have one solution to everything.
The COV has no financial oversight . Solution : More Towers ! The COV is ramping up debt levels. Solution: More Towers ! The COV is clogged with grid lock traffic. Solution: More Towers !

[Alan James @AJAnotes]

Maybe it’s a compliment?

[Gotham's Kitten @GothamsKitten]

I was in between being awake and asleep when something whispered “troublemaker’ in my ear….guess we’re back to that again. 🙃

[Alan James @AJAnotes]

It is sad that journalism is no longer viewed as a good life path. Soon the newly minted grads life’s work will be business and marketing.

[Kim Bolan @kbolan]

It is indeed a sad day for those of us who have either taught at or graduated from this excellent journalism program. I have been a part-time instructor there since 2012 and have been inspired by students and colleagues. https://t.co/CEDVDzbw8J via @VancouverSun

Another eye sore…

Vancouver will be getting its first floating hotel or floatel on the waterfront next to Vancouver Convention Centre West.

Exciting innovation for waterfront, 200 new jobs, supports economy, high environmental performance, new publicly accessible dock at sea level with seating.

Blue Cheer

[Amy @20th_Centurygal]

Who’s the loudest band you’ve ever seen live?

[Alan James @AJAnotes]

Justin Bieber band?

[🇺🇸Hot Pepper @Hot_Pepper76]

"For Your Love" 1965

This is the song that pushed Eric Clapton to quit this band, because he wanted to stick to blues, not pop.

Jeff Beck replaced him.

Do you remember the band's name?https://t.co/SVtdkHxKex

[Alan James @AJAnotes]

Hmmm…nice to see your lovely eyes again…

[Gotham's Kitten @GothamsKitten]

It’s been a while! Hellllllo X!

[Alan James @AJAnotes]

@GothamsKitten @JasonStoll13 You are ageless !

[Alan James @AJAnotes]

I did not know this. Are they anti bike?

[Bruce Carscadden @BruceCarscadden]

@AJAnotes Maybe … but reposting CHW is also a big mistake

[Alan James @AJAnotes]

Stay on commercial drive ! lol

[Bruce Carscadden @BruceCarscadden]

@AJAnotes @elviralount @GoldinYVR @michaelgeller Looking at this from commercial drive its just fine, excited to go.

[Alan James @AJAnotes]

Another dumb idea . I’m waiting for the giant Ferris wheel to be proposed by some misguided fool.

[CityHallWatch @CityHallWchVAN]

@rrrobbberttt A massive floating hotel would diminish the views from the Convention Centre and diminish the experience for all organizations using this space for conferences.

[Alan James @AJAnotes]

Absolutely ridiculous. What happened to appreciation of the natural environment? Leave that site alone ! @elviralount @GoldinYVR @michaelgeller

[Elvira Lount @elviralount]

Justin McElroy’s CBC News story on the ill thought out massive barge spa proposal for Heritage Harbour Marina in Kitsilano, featuring boat owner Duane Elverum and yours truly. Petition at 1161 signers. #vanpoli https://t.co/CQmgDwnXmN

I like the overall design of the towers but find them far too tall for the area. For those who bow to more towers as the only solution I say look at European cities. Too bad Westbank left the project. My understanding is that the economics have changed.

[Khelsilem @Khelsilem]

Sen̓áḵw doesn't really "break all the rules."

Meets City massing standards. Follows the Residential Tenancy Act. Built to BC Building Code. Funds public art at the same rate as projects in the City.

It also has heights comparable to dozens of buildings within 2 km.

[Alan James @AJAnotes]

@alispagnola Don’t be ageist…

[Alan James @AJAnotes]

@rrrobbberttt @DouglasTodd Seems out of scale with the existing neighborhood… in my humble estimation.

[Alan James @AJAnotes]

You’re joking right?

🔥🚨JUST IN: Justin Bieber’s wife Hailey Bieber posted a thirst trap to Instagram to show off her ‘butt cheek’ in a bikini despite being married to one of the greatest pop legends of all time.
