relevance to the TMNT??

New Yorkers still call it the Chrysler Building...
****************
...was commissioned in 1926 by Walter P. Chrysler
when Chrysler was a corporation and the U.S.
automobile industry was king. It is an Art Deco
structure, almost brazen in presentation,
bedecked with replicas of Chrysler's 1929
automobile eagle hood ornaments on the 61st
floor and with massive copies of
the company's 1929 winged radiator caps
on the 31st.

my 'take' on THE FIGHT

been at odds with just abt. everybody--
most of them are Leo-loyals who are adamant that
Leo 'threw' that duel(deliberately lost)in order to
bring Raph to his senses--
to make him understand that his
vigilante activities were detrimental
to the welbeing and safety of his family..
********
mebbe so..
(Mencken:You may be right..)
**************
however..
don't really want to drag in too many
biblical(anathema!)references -
but I thought I saw a near fratricide here..
that left hand clenching a weapon & raised
in what was surely a killing strike..
the sequence of Raph's expressions-
until the moment he steps back, turns and
runs away--I saw him running--from himself!!
he'd almost killed his brother--
& the shock of that realization--
is traumatic...no matter how much he
resents Leo's interference in his life--
he truly doesn't hate Leo..
Remember, Raph doesn't really answer
the question: Why do you hate me..)
******************
(The following has nothing to do with
the subject, but I wanna get it in here anyhow...
the most wonderful, hysterical, howl with laughter
sequence was the knock-down, drag-out, no holds barred,
kick ass, take no prisoners, last man(turtle)standing, brawl
between the Nightwatcher and the Jersey Devil...
It appeared that with this particular opponent,
Raphael almost meets his match!)

Grandson, Conlan, taught me how to
rig CD player to play just one track over
and over...

Hey! out here in the "Backwoods",
no neighbors nearby to complain!
(tho' noise just might scare off
the bears and cougars!)
