Esquire Magazine recently did a "
7 Wonders of the Totalitarian World", and guess what got nary a mention?
The most amazing hotel on Earth. Esquire, I don't know who did your "fact checking", but anyone who thinks some crappy ass statue of some dude from the Congo is more impressive than a 105 story hotel without windows is out of their mind. Are you serious? This is an outrage to those of us who appreciate totalitarian wonders. I expect a front page apology in your next episode, or I will be canceling my subscription.
Digg It!
hmmm, maybe there is a window tax. There was one in London in the 18th century. The result was that people bricked over their windows and the rich didn't pay more taxes, as was the original intent of the tariff. Also- who the hell goes there to begin with?
Why doesn't Microsoft install windows in the Ryugyong? That'd be a win-win. And nobody would care if they were their usual year and a half behind schedule with all things Windows-related.
Man, I love that building. It's like a jagged spike trying to injure a giant's foot (don't step on my city!). Which can't happen.
