There are very few problems that cannot be solved with a proper application of high explosives. 'proper application' being the key phrase.

Twenty years ago they were building this 2 story building, that I drove by twice a day every day. One day my curiousity gor the better of me so I stopped and asked what the cinder block structure was. It was at the start of the building process, and the architect himself told me it was the stairwell and elevator shafts. He also said it was the strongest part of the building and supposedly also fireproof.

They should leave it as is and make it a tourist trap attraction for dumb millennials on their scooters to lean their hands to it as a tower of Pisa selfie and surround it with idiotic food trucks and a dog park full of pervs.

There have been Jackwagons slowing down real slow on 75 just to look at it. Got the finger yesterday for laying on my horn with the idiot that almost came to a stop in front of me to look at it.

Is it down yet?


Funny thing about getting older:
Your eyesight starts getting weaker but your ability to
see through people's BS gets much better.

When I first came here, this was all swamp. Everyone said I was daft to build a castle on a swamp, but I built in all the same, just to show them. It sank into the swamp. So I built a second one. That sank into the swamp. So I built a third. That burned down, fell over, then sank into the swamp. But the fourth one stayed up. And that's what you're going to get, Lad, the strongest castle in all of England.

The stairwells were our tornado shelters at the chemical plant I retired from. They were reinforced to stand up to an explosion.
