...........it reflects off the river - moonshine on the Hacky!

My cellphone doesn't take good pictures at night, but this one I took tonight is good enough to see the bright swath of light on the river below the moon.

In later years, when she and "Supey" became more shall we say active it, appears that she was no longer a maiden thus making it appropriate to change this little street to Lois Lane.

"appears" being the operative (and indefinite) word here.

According to the following, what you are suggesting is humanly (and kryptonicly) impossible:

(Warning: rated PG for suggestively-vivid mental imagery)


By this standard, the following streets are also ruled out for Lois Lane renaming eligibility:

UNION St
JOHNSON Ave

I agree - lose the Mayans. They refused to lift a finger when I asked for their help last month in setting my 3-ton sundial an hour ahead.

Homer - Superman would go for your idea on one condition: Louis St would have to be renamed Lois Lane. ;D

.............it travels a distance of one apartment per week on the backside of 417 Main St.

I took the cellphone picture on the right last week and the one on the left today.

Bonus (B)observation (can't find the photos): from my perspective, the sun sets as far south as Essex St at the Winter Solstice. It sets as far north as Passaic St exactly 6 months later.

That would place my personal Hackensack equator in the Central Avenue/Susquehanna tracks area.  8)

I did a shoot there with a band named Fear Tech in 1989. They thought it would be funny to use the junked school bus with their schoolish name on it.

I thought it was funny that it was on the same road as Bergen Tech.
