If you had to have one of these built within view of your home, which would you choose?

:dilemma:

[EFerrari]

1. We can't just put a casino out by the loading docks of Home Depot?

lol

[Renew Deal]

6. lol

You just blew my mind.... :smoke:

[amyrose2712]

2. Water Tower- had it never bothered me. I love water.

[MADem]

3. Where's the darn wind farm or solar capture farm?

I already live too close to an interstate....I suppose someone has to...

[Renew Deal]

7. Those are peaceful and mostly unbtrusive.

I listed stuff that people get worked up about.

[MADem]

11. Some people insist that wind farms are the devil--Ted Kennedy was one of 'em.

http://www.bostonherald.com/business/general/view/2009_01_17_Ted_Kennedy_hits_Cape_Wind_OK/

So was Walter Cronkite, until he reversed himself with a contrite apology.

We still can't get CAPE WIND because the rich don't want their view "ruined."

I think the things are beautiful, myself.

[sammytko]

15. I think they are beautiful also

[amyrose2712]

39. I concur. I get all tingly when I see them on my way into Atlantic City...

much prettier than the casinos that ugly up the ocean view and the boardwalk.

[Xithras]

42. Lol. I wouldn't want to live anywhere near a wind farm.

They're pretty, but I'm not a fan of the noise.

[laundry_queen]

43. *laugh*

The last town I lived in there was a planned wind farm on the valley ridge (town was in the valley so the farm would overlook the town). There was a large group of people FREAKING out about it. "It will ruin my VIEW!" I shit you not.

The wind farm happened, and it looked beautiful. I used to love to watch it on windy days. But I still laugh about those people who took ads out in the local paper and hired a lawyer to fight the wind farm. Idiots.

[NRaleighLiberal]

4. think of the waste coming out of the Repub HQ - another combo opportunity?

not meaning any harm, mind you....maybe just all of the bullshit coming out of the ether can be converted to something useful....

[Major Nikon]

5. Airport

[NYC_SKP]

8. How about a Massive Nuclear Powered Strip Club Casino?

.
With an Airport???


:P

[Renew Deal]

9. Isn't that basically Las Vegas?

:evilgrin:

[Psephos]

13. lol n/t

[izquierdista]

26. Since he forgot to throw in the Air Force Base.....

Vegas has that and more.

[hootinholler]

28. I thought Vegas was Hydro

:shrug:

[ThoughtCriminal]

10. MNPSCC's?

Make it Republic Headquarters and put it in a hollowed out volcano and you've got a Bond Movie.

[robinlynne]

30. too funny.

[cliffordu]

35. ...And an Olive Garden!!!!

[begin_within]

45. I got yer nuclear strip club right here:

[JNelson6563]

12. Other: Wind turbine

[sammytko]

14. Military base! Wouldn't have to drive far to the commissary or clinic

Y'all forget that some of us here are veterans and enjoy using our benefits. I loved living on base.

[Renew Deal]

18. The people and services on the base are fine

But they get noisy.

[sammytko]

29. I lived on a C-5 training base. Didnt bother me at all

The end of the taxiway was just down the street. And then the hospital was right behind my house and they tested their generator weekly.

We used to call it the sound of freedom. Miss the sound of taps played at 2200 hrs.

[Renew Deal]

38. I'm not sure how many people would like "the sound of freedom"

But it sure is better than the sound of a nuclear explosion or an all night club. ;)

[KamaAina]

16. Republican headquarters

Here in the Bay Area, it wouldn't generate very much traffic.

[zalinda]

17. I did live near a water tower. n/t

[ellisonz]

19. My basement would put Macau to shame!

Yahtzee:toast:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

20. Water tower...since I'm already close to that!

I knew some people who were right down the hill from our local water tower...

They took out flood insurance, just in case.

Ya never know!

It has never had a problem...

:hi:

[EFerrari]

24. We have a water tower down the hill, too.

[Thegonagle]

21. I'll take a cellular tower so I can finally get a decent signal at my home.

A wind farm would be great. Their gearboxes can make a little noise, so I wouldn't necessarily want it 25 feet out my window, but a field full of hundreds of them is actually cool to look at--even mesmerizing--like the ocean or a bonfire.

[rjj621]

54. I would pick cell tower if it were a choice

If it weren't for T-Mobile and wifi calling I wouldn't be able to use my phone at home.

[pacalo]

22. Okay...(snaps fingers x 3)...who's the wise guy/gal who chose "nuclear power plant"?

I've got something I think might keep you busy for the next couple of hours ... ...

[Ohio Joe]

23. Strip club

I enjoy going now and again.

[Initech]

25. No choice for prisons?

:shrug:

[Renew Deal]

37. Dammit

I missed that one. I guess there were too many good choices.

[hootinholler]

27. Funny there are only 4 of those that I don't have within 3 miles.

Unless Ft Deitrick has a nuclear reactor in addition to all the nasty germs, then it's down to 3.

[Hassin Bin Sober]

31. Fuck schools, fuck public transportation and fuck night-life.....

..... I told the boyfriend our next house has to be no more than 3 blocks from a Home Depot (I would settle for a Menards).

Yeah I like to fix stuff. Can't be drunk ALL the time.

[trackfan]

32. I voted Casino.

I guess I imagined the question more as having one of these very close to my home, as many of the choices are already techincally in view of my home because I have a panoramic view of the Los Angeles basin. That said, I'd love to have a casino within, say, walking distance.

[KansDem]

33. Would the strip club have big windows?

If not, I'd go with the water tower...

[cliffordu]

34. Strip club.

[bengalherder]

36. Voted for the water tower

Need water for those wet T-shirts at the strip club, yo!

[Incitatus]

40. Hmm tough choice, would a Casino or Republican headquarters bring in more prostitutes?

:shrug:

[joeybee12]

41. If the interstate was "in view" but not close enough so that you'd hear the cars

day and night, I'd go with that...

[Renew Deal]

48. I used to live around a mile from a state road and I could hear the cars at night.

So I'm not sure if that's possible.

[HipChick]

44. I live on a flight path...

The only thing that really bothers me are the black helicopters that buzz around 2am at night..

[Renew Deal]

47. Thank you Alex Jones!

:evilgrin:

[NeedleCast]

46. If I Go With Nuclear Power Plant, Can I Profit From The Energy Sales?

[Renew Deal]

49. Good question. Is that how it's normally done?

[TBF]

50. Why isn't oil rig a choice? I guess I'll have to go with the water tower ... nt

[snooper2]

51. nuclear power plant sounds good but I have to go with Strip Club

There are probably a 1000 ways to make money off the drunk patrons leaving :rofl:

53. I have a veiw of a massive water tower from my house --

I love it. :) It's painted a beautiful sky blue, and it can be seen from much of San Francisco.
