New Towers or a Memorial? - Page 2

I hate it when I see the flag with shit written all over it. ****! Don't these people know that's not the place to put your "special" message.

Okay, I've put a lot of thought into this (almost three minutes), and I've come up with a solution that should satisfy all parties:

First, we build a single, incredibly tall tower, and flank it with three smaller towers - one to one side, two to the other. You can visualize the effect by making your hand into a fist and raising the middle finger.

Next, we create two monuments at the bottom of the structure. One is an engraving depicting those lost on September 11. The other is a glass enclosure which will be gradually filled with the members of Al Quaeda held at Camp X-Ray as they're found guilty. They shall be fed by the crazy people who currently feed the pigeons (Especially the man who feeds the pigeons around Washington Square Park and insists they're undercover cops), which should also help alleviate the pigeon problem.

On top of the tallest tower, the military will install surface-to-air missile launchers and anti-aircraft guns.

The entire structure will be mounted on a special revolving, spring-loaded base. If, in the future, any aircraft hit the tower, it'll just bend backward, then spring back into place.

The mechanism controlling the revolving base will be directly linked to the CIA's computers, which will continually update with the last known location of Osama bin Laden, thus ensuring the structure's "message" is always pointing in the right direction.

I'm drawing up the blueprints as I speak...

Well, that's just plain not right. And wrong, too.

I came up with the whole idea after I backed over a pigeon in the car this morning. You just assume they'll be quick enough to get out the way. I'm wracked with guilt.

... and you should be. You killed one of the few remaining North American Winged-Rats. Also known by the latin term: Mus Avis (rat bird). They're an endangered species. I fear one day we'll only be able to show pictures of this majestic predator to our children.

Willoughby, I'm proud to present you the inaugural Belle's Award, for the above sentence's contribution to making Belle laugh way too much.

I've been miserable since squishing the little feathered poop-generator.

The real name for pigeons is Rock Dove. I had a friend that was down in the South West and someone said "oh look a rock dove". I guess they don't have them down there? When they were in the "wild" they used to build nests on clifs. So they do very well in the city.

Well I'm honored. Anything is better than you having to resort to thinking "that little birdy is in a better place now" - and thank God for that.

Whoa that was so filled with irony I think I'm no longer anemic. :eek:
