1. Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.
And a tall building is just a tall building. :)

8. Wow, No way, is it really lighted up like that?
Funny, you should post that pic, the reason why I was looking at these skyscrapers was to see if they had a 13th floor. I'm on this kick where I'm trying to get pics of elevators with the displays not showing the 13th floor. The Cathedral of Learning was one that I was looking at earlier, plus it's just amazing Art Deco features.

I thought it would be great if an institution of higher learning succumbed to a superstition. I think it does have a 13th floor. Incidentally, all the high rise state capitols buildings all have 13th floors too, Nebraska, Louisiana, Florida and North Dakota,

11. I like that building.
When I visited, I liked all the classrooms that were decorated for Christmas in ways traditional to a variety of countries.

7. That looks a lot like Hoover Tower
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoover_Tower

Stanford students used to call it Hoover's Last Erection. Maybe they still do.
