Obamacare Approved

Surprisingly, when Jim, a Montana farmer, checked the fine print in the new Affordable Health Care Law, he found that architectural orthopedic care was available for historical barns like his (Page 2309, paragraph 3, subsection 21-b), but there was a waiting list. Once the architectural orthopedics facility being built in Hanover, New Hampshire was completed–which was expected to be not later than July 2037–Jim could bring his barn, but, of course, all transport costs were to be borne by the historical artifact (barn) owner.  There was also a panel that would decide which historical artifacts (barns) would be accepted and which would be simply torched, even though torching may contribute to global warming. The Government insisted this was not an architectural “death panel”  . . .

Big Picture Guy

Gaudi, the famous Spanish Architect, was always focused on the outstanding details of his signature creation, the famous cathedral in Barcelona, but when you stepped back for a second look, it was hard to argue that he wasn’t a big picture guy as well. . . . . . David, Sf.G.
