Fathers' Day was great at my house. Hoping same for y'all other fathers of another mother.

I'm almost done with small parts for batch10 over here. I hope to be laying out and cutting wood tomorrow. I've still got wee strings that need tying off (finished upgrades to ship out, little extras dis'n'dat, administrative bee "S", oh look! a visitor tomorrow!), so that's why I say "hope"; and/but if not tomorrow, shavings will be a'flingin' by Wed. fo' sho'.

Snippets withdrawal setting in.

@B2L

Is that an AmericasMart building? **EDIT - Nvm, yes, bldg 3*** There are quite a few nice buildings in downtown.

I've always enjoyed the (inside) view of the Marriott Marquis (looking up is the better view...)

Not my pic of course...

And I like the Sovereign building in Buckhead (again, not my pic...):

Ah! The wonder that is Boston City Hall. When the sun shines upon it at least it doesn't make you want to throw up.

That image actually makes it look better than it really does - trust me on this one. The inside of the building can be described as "dark - everywhere - and tomb-like."

Cool looking building, the upside down staircase behind the flagpoles reminds me of this

Yeah, I was kinda thinking the same the longer I looked at it. Escher makes more sense than that building ever will.

To think that that thing was created so ucking fugly on the inside as well as the outside - and they actually paid to make it so... :facepalm:

I had a lot of dealings that required us to go there often - City Council meetings and whatnot - and everyone kinda reflexively grimaced whenever we approached that building. It had nothing to do with what was on the agenda.

From one of the best artists of any generation... I had a cheap copy of this hanging on my office wall and my former business partner had an original hanging in his living room... What he paid for it could've fed a nation in Africa for a couple years!!
