We shall see if the hurricanes get worse and the seas rise |
Thankfully no seas here in Pa. something I don't have to fear. |
What’s your elevation there |
Appox. 1500 feet |
Just closed down the livestream of the continuing attempts to take down "The Leaning Tower of Dallas". It's become an bit of a popnews icon and it's STILL up and leaning! |
They should make it a city landmark |
Bright idea |
It was newsworthy when it happened |
Local news can't get enough of it! Just took a peek and though it's a chilly day here, there was a shirtless guy out there looking watching today's attempts - just to put a period on the insanity! Lots of people are bringing their dogs out to watch for a while. |
I had to google what y'all were talking about lol. That sure is something to catch one's eye lol. |
Must have been newsworthy by someone. They showed it on my St. Louis News when it happened |
I don't watch the news, all local nonsense. Do you think they screwed up the explosives that the entire building didn't come down. |
Misjudged how strong the structure and it’s supports |
Makes sense |
It is coffee time |
It’s a coffee and hot chocolate day here. Got an. Inch of snow |
Can't think of a worse commentary on the demolition company the developers hired to take the old building down. Now they're using a tiny little wrecking ball and occas. drill to swat at it square foot at a time! At this rate unless they use other tactics soon, The Leaning Tower of Dallas, momentary Twitter star with its own account and hashtag, will be there a while yet. Don't know what it is about construction and demolition projects that can attract so many lookers-on. Wherever they are busy working building downtown, there are always people standing and watching! https://www.wfaa.com/video/weather/l...-2/287-1661278 |
Think Jimmy Hoffa is buried under it 🙄 |

Dang it! Never thought of that! THAT'S the answer. At least the remains will stay unearthed for a while longer at this rate. |
I watched the Irishman on Netflix but forgot where they said he was buried |

Popular sentiment seems to be for our little tower to resist and stand on while developers who want it long gone sweat! Last night an advertiser even projected a giant ad off it once it got dark! Can't be long B4 another ad appears there. It would e fitting if they find Hoffa or some other surprise under it when all the clean-up is over after all the attention this location is getting. |
Better to hear news like this then the wide spread corona virus that’s going on |

After taking the day off yesterday due to gusty winds in the area, looks like demolition work has resumed today on the leaning tower. Wonder if the same crowd interest will return after a whole day off? |
Is there spectators watching it getting tore down? |

Any more snow in your area or is it all gone? I envy you that 1" of snow. It's been a while for us and I miss it. When we traveled a lot, we'd just fly to it and I loved the fun we had in it. How much snow do you all usually get each year? |
Not much snow up here at all thanks to climate change. We might have got one snow of 6 inches it didn’t last too long though. Much like when Dallas does get snow gone the next day. |

I have a hard time getting Dexter to go out in it |

Looks like somebody is trying to display a huge American flag in the empty field where most of the crowd gathers across from "The Leaning Tower of Dallas". What else could it be? Still, this is the oddest display I've seen of the flag in a long time! https://krld.radio.com/articles/news...ower-of-dallas https://www.wfaa.com/video/weather/l...-2/287-1661278 |
You got some nice weather today down there today |
