Nope.  I'm just in Ron Swanson mode.  If only I had his skills.

QuoteDC Tower 1 is 220 metres high (250 metres including the antenna spire)[1] which makes it the tallest skyscraper in Austria as it will be 18 metres higher than Millennium Tower, which was leading that ranking before. The DC Tower 1 was officially finished with an opening ceremony on Feb 26, 2014 by Buzz Aldrin.[

As of now, less than half the space is rented out. Baxter moved in there, there's a hotel in the bottom dozen or so floors, plus a fitness center and a bar on top. None of the apartments have been sold yet.

And it's blocking part of my view from the office across the Danube.  :mad:

I find it's quite stressful to drive 200+ kph though. 160 kph is the best speed.

I got to do 145kph semi-legally for the first time last week.

I got a junk mail post card for a payday advance/gold buying place today.  I really need to move to a more affluent zip code.   :(

I love getting the payday loan/debt consolidation flyers in the same bundle of mail that includes the super-duper $500 annual fee credit cards. :P

It really is a good trailer.  I could've done without the hyper-generic (Zimmer?) music tho.

Strange gray-orange skies out right now.  End times?  Is it the Anti-Monitor?
