This is primarily for the Swede Transvestite, but I figured some other MSP escapees might enjoy this site of Minneapolis architectural history. It's hosted at the site of James Lileks who used to have a fantastic late night radio show called The Diner. While he never came close to the pure radio genious that is Mishke (who could commit the cardinal radio sin of intentionally allowing dead air and actually see his ratings go up) The Diner had its moments and I listened regularly. One moment sticks out where a very sincere caller, an older lady judging by the voice, made the comment that they should all remember that there is only one true God. Lileks' engineer immediately agreed saying, "Yes! And it is Pan! The Goat God!" Classic.
Where was I... oh yeah. So, uh, buildings, you betcha.

Mishke is the goat god of radio!! And I thought I was the only one who listens to KSTP AM!
Cool, I especially liked the part on the Thunderbird. Someday I'll go back there for a visit. 20-year MCAE reunion maybe.
