i wonder how much booze this guy had to feed sarkozy for him to be allowed to build his museum in the bois de boulogne, but what a beautiful structure.

you know, sometimes all it takes is a little browsing through the various french and german fora (and sometimes spanish) to really remember what beautiful structures human beings can develop. sf is a dump full of bumbling phillistines, by contrast with what you folks have over there. not sure if it makes me despair at our lot over here, or utterly inspired by the fact that, at least somewhere, humans enjoy the radiance of the fruits of their most beautiful labors.
