SunTrust Plaza at Church Street Station! (if we keep typing it, we'll memorize it just in time for it to change again *sigh*.)

Could we devise a convenient acronym ala SoDo from that word salad?

How 'bout SuTruPla-ChuStreSta....?

Ouch!!! I think I hurt my tongue....

Let's just call it Herman's Loan Office like the bar that took over that old place on Church St. since they're not using it anymore...

It occurs to me that the thing isn't actually even on Church St.

It's on South St.

So shouldn't they be calling it Sun Trust Plaza at South Street?

[spenser1058]

It's corruption, I tell you. Nothing but corruption!

So now is it AC Hotels by Marriott at SunTrust Plaza at Church Sreet Station that's actually on South Street, next to the SunRail Station provided by Orange County and the FDOT?

Okay, but you're going to have to come up with the catchy acronym for that one.

SuTruPla@ChuStreSta wore me out.

STP@CSP does have a nice breviteeeee.

That sounds like Huttese spoken by the Jabba’s Palace band.  Not the original band, mind you, rather, the 1997-98 re-release with new CG featuring Joh Youza.

Actually, it sounds more Klingon than anything

One of the most scathing rejections in history: Klingon Kahlest to K'mpec when she rejects his advances: "You are too fat"

Oh well, "It is a good day to die."

Yes, Shatner was right, I need to "get a life." *sigh*

Have either of you guys have ever seen the Conan O'Brien segment where Triumph The Insult Comic Dog has his way with a crowd of costumed Star Wars fans waiting in line outside of a theater in NYC for the premier of a new SW movie?

Unfortunately, I haven't had a TV since 2003 so no. I suppose I could have streamed it but I tend to just read current events stuff and get lost on my Kindle. Yep, I'm an e-bookworm.

It's on YouTube if you're interested.

Sense of humor required.

I may have spoken too soon. I just read Murphy Brown is coming back with the original cast, not to mention Jean-Luc Picard over at Trek. It's the '80's all over again! Where's my Pet Shop Boys CD? Fortunately, I never gave up preppy...

I'm not one of those guys, but I've seen it.  He rails on the guys for seeing a real girl in real life, etc.

Shatner was wrong!  Heresy, I know.  Seriously, I'd rather watch Picard bust a verbal cap in some Romulan's ass than regular TV.

yeah, the lighting on that shot is making it look ominous, like those '60's-'70's  Chicago scrapers like Daley Center, CNA, IBM, Illinois Center, etc...

[IAmFloridaBorn]

Some shots today. Not best quality but you get the idea lol

 

 

[jrs2]

When risking life and limb, for “the shot,” you take what you can get.  I found a couple of shot opportunities on Anderson early in the am when there was nobody behind me.  Usually that’s not the case and workers are riding our perverbeal asses...
