It will be made up for in the savings of not having to build a mote around our castle of classism.<br /><br />Times Square South sounds great. Know tons of New Yorkers who live here who get up sunday morning to go soak up all that great Authentic™ Times Square vibe. We are all tearing down the gates to go live on Times Square.<br /><br /> Poor Times Square new york can only envision you as a whore not the graceful lady you were built to be. <br /><br />Village there is a pimp offering to by you a nice new dress. Because he cares about you. <br /><br />Its not an inevitability to accept the gift you know.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-17854895795152961912013-09-28T07:49:11.894-04:002013-09-28T07:49:11.894-04:00It'll make the perfect companion failure to th...It'll make the perfect companion failure to the nearby Death Star!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-12150031120607195532013-09-27T19:33:23.795-04:002013-09-27T19:33:23.795-04:00Yeh, hard to complain about trees but $16million? ...Yeh, hard to complain about trees but $16million?
