So, I'm sure you've all heard of by now about the world's tallest building! It's in Dubai, and this thing is gigantic! BEHEMOTH! MONSTROUS! Not even the Death Star comes close! Okay, okay I'm exaggerating a bit, but MY GOD MAN! The late great World Trade Center in New York was tall enough, but this thing is just egregious! The irony is this skyscraper was designed by Americans, but now stands in that patch of desert over there yonder in tha Middle East. It has tons of residential space, which I think is a first? Who's even gonna live there anyway?! Take a look at this footage right here. A view from the very top. I can't stand it. My acrophobia is too much. It is marvelous what humans can do ain't it? Dubai however, is facing financial woes and the structure may remain empty for a good while. Not even God himself can...OOPS! Nevermind. I'll just keep my mouth shut and avoid cursing the building. HA.
And then I run into this news article which shockingly states:
--A new biography of the film star Warren Beatty claims that he has been to bed with 12,775 women. The author adds, usefully, that the figure 'does not include daytime quickies, drive-bys, casual gropings, stolen kisses and so on'.
Here's to love...and even bigger skyscrapers. HEE.

Happy New Year! And as you may have heard, that huge things sways five feet at the top in the wind. Now you have to guess if I am talking about Dubai or Warren.
Warren used to be totally hot and was very active in Hollywood - and some of the women, who were less than discreet, testified to the length and magic of his wand. But in the end, he wanted stability, love and a family. Isn't he lucky that it turned out that way for him.
Buildings that big scare me. Not that I would ever be in Dubai, but you couldn't pay me enough to be in a building that size. They are terrorist targets.... not to mention earthquake nightmares. No thank you.
That building looks like it is something from the merry old land of OZ.
Warren Beatty was a fantastically beautiful man in his heyday and didn't do so bad when he settled down. Good for him. AND I adore his sister!
