I am anxious for the first lawsuit to arise from the ever-so-steep stairs on the Lamar side of this growth hormone monstrosity. Pretty damn sick looking; seems to represent all that A Hole Foods purports to stand against. Remember... "No New Taxes"

What?!?!? You're kidding, right? We think Jules Verne might disagree with you... But then again, you claim to be a lead character in his very novel which asserts that one might want to descend 20,000 LEAGUES Under the Sea. A mile is a measure of distance... Could I not (with adequate equipment) descend a MILE below the ocean (or a parking structure? I think there are enough levels at Whole Foods)? Quite a puzzle... Well, either way, we were fairly drunk writing it and are frankly surprised we didn't claim to have descended 40 Dildos below Austin... If you want to split semantic hairs, we're surprised you didn't point out that we left off the "e" in breathe (as it is technically spelled despite common acceptance of the noun "breath" as a verb). But hell... We're just happy to get a reaction...

Actually, a league is a distance, not a depth. Maybe you descended 40 fathoms, or 240 feet.
