    Thanks for sharing those pictures! <3B)

    I love architecture. I'm amazed at how mankind has built homes, buildings, bridges, cathedrals and other structures that stand for centuries.
    Just think about all those statues near the top of those turrets on that church. How are they attached? When building it, they knew the statues would be secure forever. Amazing!

    I think about the planning that went into that elaborately plant stylized townhome. What a beautiful expression that to me is balanced and not overdone. I'm shaking my head right now at the planning and detail that HAD to be done before starting that facade.

    Then you see hotels in Vegas that get recycled after 40 or 50 years. :/

    I thought the same thing visiting Biltmore - the house's foundations were so impressive, especially when you consider residential homes built today will be lucky to stand up for 50 years without some major foundation overhaul.

    30 years ago when I moved down here, this was a budding city.
    The beaches only had crowds in the summer. There was free parking then too.

    There barely were any construction codes.

    I came upon slab single-story homes that got built with "black fiberboard" as exterior sheathing. I guess the corner framing was well braced at angles or they used those long 16' or 20' metal bracing straps across a bunch of studs at an angle...they had to have. Well, the builder put vinyl siding over the fiberboard...that's all. :s You could throw a baseball through those walls!

    I don't know how they got away with it!

    The cassette decks are out-of-frame, but only a few feet away :) I found those cassettes while going through some of my old stuff from the '80s.

    Those were exactly the words I was going to add to my earlier post... but I demurred; feelin' perky today, I am! ;)

    Not a fan of most of the 'classic' Dual tts rekkid playas changers. Their engineers seemed to have the following mantra*:

    With "sparkle that swings", it kind of goes without saying. Hmmm...sounds like the basis for a Skinemax series. I mean...just look at those people!

    That poor young woman in the top photograph appears to have ricketts or something. Maybe the 7-Up's dissolving her bones...
