Re: RSD at TMR
Swank replaced his crappy pedophile van with a crappy Honda...? And it's hilarious that Blackwell asked about the kickball game.
Nice shot of the new sign, Greg. Thanks!

Man, I can't wait to hear what's going on in the new building.

Re: RSD at TMR
As a side note to the picture above, on Friday they had the large roll down door open after they pulled the RRS out to wash it. I looked inside and it is still rough in there. Everything is still rough drywall and there was a large stack of what looked sort of like pallets or maybe stud sections for walls, I wasn't sure. They had the long florescent lights in the ceiling - two sets were normal, one set was yellow, and one set was red. It was a bit strange. The room right at the rolling door is large. The ceiling goes all the way up. On the left there is a hallway but inside the large room there is a second level sort of walkway that comes down that hallway and goes along the inside rear of the large room. It's tough to describe. Sort of like a walkway above a factory floor that managers would use to watch production. In the back of the building where la casa de shanty was located, there were three doors and the gap from the bottom of the door to the floor was about 2 inches. You could see under them inside and it was the same as the front room, bare down to drywall. I'd say they still have several more months before this space is ready for prime time.

Even in that state, it's still freaking exciting. Thanks for the description.

Re: RSD at TMR
Hahaha! I just got the most vivid image of a line of yellow'n'white'n'black Oompa Loompas singing and dancing on that elevated walkway along the rear of the room... Something about how flippers get punished.
I'm gonna be giggling over that all damned morning

I can imagine the Craigslist ad now.... "ISO: Twenty Oompa Loompas needed for Jack White video/re-enactment of scene from Willy Wonka".

Not that I've heard, though I'm certainly not in-the-know, y'know. Still keeping it mum, as they normally do.

Re: RSD at TMR
I can see it now. A bunch of Oompa Loompas singing and dancing... around an awkward looking Swank.
Has everything you said today been true?
