That big ferris wheel thing

In one of my earlier posts about Singapore ive got a picture of a big wheel.. turns out its going to be tourist thing just like the London Eye only bigger, and will be the biggest wheel in the world.

I found all this out while at work doing some Wikipedia work.. ahh, working for the public service sure sucks balls.

Another thing i found out about was these crazy architectual plans coming out that are supposed to solve Tokyo's ever increasing lack of space (does that make sense?).. I used to play SimCity.. I think it was SimCity 2 where when your city got to a certain size you had the option of building these Arcologies (sp?)

The Arcologies are basically these giant pyramid or Penis shaped buildings that are 5 times the height of anything else u can build and they hold a shitload of people and everything the people need to survive are provided for them, from air, to food, to farm land, to comic books, to toilet paper, to dirty magazines.. you name it and it was probably in the arcology... why am i going on about arcologies in SimCity 2 like a freakin numskull (by the power of)??

WELL SOME MADMAN has done some designs for them and they may be built!

That completely did my head in when I saw the pictures of them.. check this shit out..

This thing is so heavy, they cant even build it yet, they are planning on building it on the water but they need to research carbon lite materials to hold it up. It will have 4 Luxor size Pyramids inside of it (the luxor casino in vegas is fukin huge) and hold about 750,000 - 1,000,000 people.

Crazy shit.

There is also this stupidly big building called "The Illinois"

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Illinois

Its 1 mile high and has some crazy facts about it.

I never thought I would live to see things like giant pyramids built on water in my lifetime, but once it happens.. im moving in. Im going straight to the top of that Pyramid and setting up camp in it. Then im going to throw things at the people who are lower down the Pyramid than me. Eggs, tic tacs, ticks, marbles, grenades.. you name it, ill be throwing at those plebs who can't get to the top of the pyramid because im taking up all the room there.

Sure, I won't have any skills, and the only reason im there in the first place is because I was lucky and I got in early.. then before everyone woke up to the fact that they were probably more adaptable, more intelligent, fitter, stronger and lets face it, more attractive than I was, it was too fucking late because id already set up my office, stuck my feet on the desk and had a row of high price "yes" men nodding their stupid heads at every word I uttered.

Damn life is good at the tip.
