Re: Lifesaver boob job. Interesting choice of materials for augmentation, and handy on boats. The horseshoe shape would also be an interesting conversation starter at parties.

Once again in the media perpetuates the myth that architects are responsible for making buildings stand up. I'd imagine that the engineers responsible for designing the Sheffield cooling towers might feel a tad miffed to discover that it was an architect who designed in the stability of the towers.

What's this? An article about demolishing chimneys and not a single mention of . For shame magazine!

Ah, the joys of being a Monitorite; spotting nominative determinism everywhere. The Wall Street Journal quoted Jennifer Thevenot on museum security in an article on art theft.

Re the song - Bob Marley MUST have heard this via football chants. He was a big football fan. It is still a staple diet song for football fans - especially ones supporting teams with two syllables - Hud-ders-field La La La; Tot-en-ham La-La etc. Also used in combination with the word superstar eg "Al-an Ball Super Star"' also with the tra-la-la s replaced with other words.

My husband also swears that Meatloaf sings "I'm gonna hit the highway like a battering ram, like a Cilla Black fan on ice". Since I don't know what the hell Mr Loaf actually sings, can anyone enlighten me? If not, has anyone any pictures of a Cilla Black fan, on ice?
