    I remember working in Athens for the 2004 games....... I think he did all the Olympic Village over there. Looked very similar to this bridge.

    yeah, I went to Valencia Spain a few years ago..he had the city of Arts and Sciences...all his work. He also did a pedestrian bridge in Venice Italy. Reading the Robert Greene book "Mastery" and they had a short anecdote on his development, pretty interesting shit. I kind of want to check that out now there in BA.

    About 5 years I was on the ESPN board. A guy posted there for a while. He was about 22 and lived in Buenos Aires. His favorite team was the Blazers, though he'd never seen them.

    I made a little fun of him, saying he probably lived in Portland. He started e-mailing me and soon I knew he was Argentinian. He sent pictures of his block, I looked up his address on an online map, etc. Good guy. So there's a Blazer fan there, HCP.

    Argentina has a crisis-level labor shortage. They may invade the Falklands, looking for Mexican hedge trimmers.
