Here are the top 10 Precarious Building according to TIME.  I’m particularly fascinated with the Sutyagin House, Archangel, Russia, because when I look at all these buildings, I think about how they were built and how they got the materials to where they ended up. Modern structures are easy to fabricate when you have a bunch of heavy equipment and cranes and such. When your building is on a crazy rock formation, or you’re doing it all by yourself, that’s truly impressive.

When you use google earth, the red dot indicating the Hill District is on my house.  Weird.  How appropriate that I’m the ambassador now.  🙂

Give someone a shove,
and they take flight.
Give one some love,
and they take your night.

Take someone’s breath away,
and they give you love.
Take the time in a day,
and they give answers from above.
