<P>Can't say I like the architecture much, but I'm glad to see we're building big.

I am beginning to wish I had mot started this topic.<P>I like the look of the new buildings. They are at least more interesting than the never loved in their day, twin towers.

Has anyone here seen the Oklahoma City Murah Building memorial?  They kept part of the building up on the memorial site, sort of the same "bathtub" effect, including chairs representing the persons killed, including small chairs for the children killed!  <BR>It is a well thought-out memorial to make you feel how tragic the bombing was; very haunting, solemn and powerful!

I think they should make it a shrine to mecca....

I was kind of hoping for the other design, which had two towers, but bigger and with those cool glass helixes surrounding them.  <P>Besides, I think it aptly ironic that steel from the WTC is going into the US's new nuclear (or was GWB says, "nukulur") carrier.

Funny that guy looks like the cab driver I had last night coming home from the 9:30 club.

when i look at the new buildings i think of spandau ballet,wham,duran duran and a flock of seagulls and because of this the buildings must not be built.

Can anybody answer this:<P>Why do all the guys in Iraq have really bad thick porno mustaches? <P>This isn't a joke, it's just something that I've noticed.
