From the basements under the ice factory there is one place where another flight of stairs is leading further down. We could not explore this as it seems to be invariably under water - up to only to a couple of centimeters under the basement level. The building stands pretty close to the river Spree - so this is most likely ground water level. No way to explore without a wetsuit. I can't tell if it goes further down than what you can see on the picture or not - and therefore cannot tell if one would need a scuba tank etc. as well. The water is icecold and clear (probably only as long it is undisturbed). You can see some remains of furniture at the far end, a floating barrel, a barrel lid and some other junk in the water. Maybe this is just a single room or maybe a whole maze of more rooms under water...

Visitors to the Hollywood Tower Hotel are frequently led astray. You may want to spend a quiet evening in the hotel's library. However, it appears that the only exit is by way of the basement boiler room. On the plus side, you get to see what it takes to keep an old hotel functioning.

this is the basement in my parent's house

clutter and more clutter, the only room my mom allows to be messy

it is my favorite place probably because of this

it is where i play and write a fuck ton of music!

 

it is also where earlier today before going to work i made a list of the top 3 nicest things that people have ever said about me that i am aware of

1. when people i really respect say "we" in reference to me and them, in some sort of connectedness

2. when i was standing three or four feet behind a boy who i thought did not like me who talks about music in a very pretentious way and dresses like woody allen and eats approximately three hundred and eleven calories a day said to his curly haired friend,

"you know, maureen isn't the clearest guitar player..."

and the curly haired boy said,

"yeah but she's got more fuckin' feeling than any clean guitar player i've ever heard"

and woody allen 2.0 said,

"yeah, that's true"

and i fucking BOOKED it away from them because i didn't want them to know that i just heard what they said or to hear anything else they said that might have changed hearing those nice things because i mean come on

how often do you get to hear nice things about yourself that you were NOT MEANT TO HEAR

how often do you hear good things about yourself that were not

CATERED FOR YOUR EARS

never, so i walked away so quickly, and then i had a miniature emotional holocaust

and i don't give a fuck if my chords aren't always clear

i am not going to worry about proving to people that i know how to play chords

songs are more about the melody, to me anyway

and i remember how i felt that night in the dirty overcrowded house i just played a forty five minute set at, i felt like how you feel when you don't eat anything all day and then you drink a LOT of coffee and have like a bite of a banana and then you're more hungry than you were before because your metabolism was just jump started by a bite of nourishment because before it was in sleep mode, it was hibernating barely breathin'; that is exactly how i felt

hi-ya

3. when someone i like holds my name in their mouth! is my name safe in there? are you going to tuck my name in, prepare it a salad, kick it in the face, change the channel while my name is watching america's next top model? and my name will say, hey, i was watching that, and then you will put it back on. are you going to feed my name lots of cereal and teach it how to vacuum the carpet properly or just put it on the porch and come back in an hour or so, will you install my name into your lap top computer and send it to it's first day of kindergarden and take a polaroid picture of it standing next to a yellow school bus while the driver pretends to think that this is cute and feed my name rice cakes and dust it every week or so and trim it's hair with miniature boyscout scissors on swiss army knives

will you bury my name in the sand when you go to the beach and sigh loudly when my name makes a better chess move than you and point to dangerous garbage on the street and my name will say "i can't believe someone threw that out here" and you will say "i can, people are fucking stupid" and my name will say "do not be so hard on us" and you will say, "what?" and my name will say "i mean, do not be so hard on people."

 

"and i wanted my face to hold your face, like hands."

In traditional belief, a ghost is the soul or spirit of a dead person or animal that can appear, in visible form or other manifestation, to the living. Descriptions of the apparition of ghosts vary widely: The mode of manifestation can range from an invisible presence to translucent or wispy shapes, to realistic, life-like visions.

The History of the Ohio State Reformatory:

 

"The cornerstone laid on November 4, 1886 evolved into this magnificent Chateauesque structure. Cleveland architect Levi T. Scofield designed the Ohio State Reformatory using a combination of three architectural styles; Victorian Gothic, Richardsonian Romanesque and Queen Anne. This was done to encourage inmates back to a "rebirth" of their spiritual lives. The architecture itself inspired them to turn away from their sinful lifestyle, and toward repentance

 

The Reformatory doors were opened to its first 150 young offenders in September 1896. After housing over 155,000 men in its lifetime, the doors to the prison closed December 31, 1990.

 

Today the Ohio State Reformatory Historic Site receives visitors from all over the world. Every year tourists, movie buffs, thrill seekers and paranormal investigators walk through the halls of this majestic structure.

Ghostly History of OSR

 

As reported by News Channel 4, Columbus, Ohio 1997

 

Stone walls and iron bars they're still here, but what of the humanity, if you can call it that, of the old Ohio State Reformatory at Mansfield. What of the 154,000 inmates who passed through it's gates in it's 94 years as a working prison. Not to mention their keepers, the Wardens, and the Guards, the gravediggers, and the rest, what of them remains? As it turns out, more than you might think. No matter what their crime, some sent to Mansfield have never left. They rest unclaimed in a cheerless graveyard just outside the fence. 215 numbered markers laid out row on row. Most were victims of disease, influenza, tuberculosis, but some died of less natural causes; From the violence, that is all to common inside any prison and was far from unknown in this one. And the worst of it occurred well away from the main cell block with their rows of cages stacked tier on tier, and inmates, one or two to a cell. There were too many eyes, too many witnesses here, no the worst of it was reserved for a far lonelier place, deep beneath the prison ground. A place called local control, or solitary, by some, known by everyone else as the hole. Near total isolation can crack all but the toughest of cons, but none was so alone that there wasn't room for death. At least one inmate managed to hang himself, another set himself on fire, once two men left too long in a single tomb like cell, only one walked out, leaving his cellmate's body behind, stuffed beneath a bunk. Could there be other similar surprises? Or words left over from the days before the prison closed? Even when they're empty, some swear something walks these halls. It isn't enough for contemporary visitors not to wonder off alone while sight seeing, what‘s become one of Mansfield's more popular tourist attractions. But the bloodiest single incident in the old prison's history occurred outside it's walls. In July 1948, when the Reformatory's farm boss, his wife and daughter were kidnapped and shot to death by two parolees bent on revenge. A six state manhunt for the so called mad-dog killers ended in a shootout that left Robert Daniels of Columbus in custody and his partner, James West dead. "I'll get the Chair" Daniels told police as he signed the confession. And on January 3rd, 1949, he did. A year later in 1950 disaster struck again. This time, here in the living quarters of the Warden himself. The Warden's wife, removing a jewelry box from a closet shelf dislodged a pistol from it's hiding place. When it hit the floor, the gun went off inflicting a fatal wound. And within the decade, even more bad luck. The Warden, hard at work in his office, suffered a heart attack and died. All this was nearly 40 years ago and more, how then to explain the voices shaken tour guides swear they hear today? Man and woman talking, to faint to understand, to persistent to ignore and chilling to listeners who think they're alone, only to find themselves apparently eavesdropping on the warden and his wife locked forever in an endless conversation from beyond the grave.

Creating orbs in the basement of a ruined house , simply with a sparkler.

Darren and I are exhausted, but we got all the rubber flooring installed this week and a layer of finish put on. We started bringing all the stuff back down the basement tonight, but ran out of steam... but, we're in the home stretch! And, if it ever floods again, I can live without a basement!

Now here's a basement done up right! That window in the back is the serving opening for a fully stocked bar. The bamboo wallpaper and the coral shelves are fabulous, as are the golden lampshade, chrome table and Japanese doll.

The plumbers finished their work in the basement. They jack hammered a bunch of concrete to move the city water line and two sewer lines. The pressure assist toilet is pretty cool. I'm tempted to try flushing an entire roll of toilet paper.

 

D.O.E. Plumbing out of Laramie did the work. I highly recommend them. They were courteous, fast, on time and under budget.
