16. His fundraising for the free health clinics saved people's lives.

He can sit on his ass the rest of his life and rest on his laurels all he wants. (And he can afford to.)

2. That is great. Any idea what the lighter streak beside the bolt of lightning is?

[RC]

3. Most likely a reflection in the window.

5. Until the day I die

I will be grateful for him spitting in the face of the neocon traitors.

This, I will never forget.

8. I'm with you. He is forever one of my heros.

I can't help but think he will resurface in the near future.

11. I missed him the most during the Wisconsin recall election

And almost everyday I think what a literal shame his voice is silent during this critical election season.

10. Is that the Fox News Building?

Maybe God is trying to tell them something, and KO captured.

[ChazII]

14. What is the name of the building?

I like its design.

[ChazInAz]

15. It's pretty well-known.

That's the Empire State Building.
Too bad the news crews didn't cover the clean-up efforts at its base, after the lightning bolt knocked that giant gorilla off the mooring mast.

[XemaSab]

18. Never heard of it.

[ChazII]

19. Thnx Chazin AZ.

I just did not recognize it for some reason and feel extremely foolish.

Do you happen to know the name of the building that is right in front - red brick looking? That is also a building I should know. I will claim that being a desert rat for 50+ years is why I am not more family with NYC.

Again, thank you.

17. Keith sympathizes with lightning rods. n/t
