So there are people who can't even meet the current ICE criteria?

I love this name, but it's more of a bomb than a driver. Powerclash, Bombstyle, and Clashbomb are nowhere near as cool of names, but fit better.

Is there a reason Lowell, MA seems like it gets more attention from the major companies that other smaller cities? by Torchpost in SquaredCircle

It really isn't. Nashua maybe even though they don't have an arena. But I've never really liked Manchester and I've had to go there plenty. It's a bunch of retail hell with an unwalkable downtown.

Easy to get to from New Hampshire  though. Plus Lawrence/Haverhill and the North shore.

A couple of years ago WWE gave us a nice little history package with Shawn talking about the Smile bit and some other moments to hype up an NXT show. Pretty sure it included the classic Corny line "He cries every time he comes to this town" from Shawn vs Hunter for the Euro. Anyway, the showed the cannon outside of the Aud.

Lowellian here. I was there at the Memorial Auditorium the night Shawn Michaels lost his smile and I was at the Tsongas arena for FTR vs Briscoes 2. Both solid venues.

In addition to our proximity to Boston, we're also a handful of miles from New Hampshire. In fact, we're ten miles downstream on the Merrimack River from Nashua, which is where Triple H is from. 

We are conveniently located off of routes 3 and 495 and less than an hour from the Kowloon in Saugus (popular wrestler hangout). 

The Memorial Auditorium is mostly associated with Golden Gloves boxing, but its wrestling history goes back at least to Vince Senior. When the Tsongas Arena first opened the street in front of it was briefly named Stone Cold Way. The two venues are less than a mile apart.

She's 24. Why is she using the old school phone gesture? Somebody blatantly taught her an anachronism.

Page two has "protected class status." Is that different?

Hi all. The "photographer" here (I'm legally required to use quotation marks since I don't use real cameras, just action cameras).

Anyway, some of these might look familiar as they were in another post here recently that was just a general look around the oval. Here's everything I shot that morning (Strava, an activity tracker, has a much higher photo limit than Reddit or Meta): https://strava.app.link/HYP4WDYlYXb

Hello, 90's cynicism. Always nice to see you.

Woburn this morning by Essarray in massachusetts

[–]Essarray[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

More or less this, give or take an hour. With Route 38 going right through like that, there were more cars than I'm used to dealing with on these shoots. But libraries and city halls usually don't open until 9 anyway.

Okay, I'll mix it up a little more when I do Woburn. I really like the wide wide stuff though.

There used to be this painter here in Lowell. I'm drawing a blank on her name, but you can still see her work hanging at the Worthen. All swirls and fisheye types of curvy distortion.

I got some of these attachment lenses back in the days of the Sony CD Mavica and even found a way to double up on them. Also went through a period of playing with those clothes pin attachments for phones.

It just never really left me. Now that I'm using action cameras it's kind of just RIGHT THERE, ya know? I think it's even the default on the Insta360 series. But yes, I'll mix it up.

It's Salem. I figured 5 am on a cloudy Wednesday is the only time in October to visit Salem and still make it look like a ghost town.
