Even though I read a brief story about IT in the Star Tribune, I was not quite prepared, to see what I saw today on Hennepin avenue.
It was cloudy. There was no sun. There never will be sun in that place again. Instead there was a massive hovering presence casting its ominous big dark scary shadow over all...I looked up at the heights of the New Central Palace...and there it was....T-H-E W-I-N-G. Some very unlibrarian like words flew upward toward T-H-E W-I-N-G but were extinguished in its devouring pall... In an instant I could see the headlines..."Fleet of Schoolbuses Crushed under T-H-E W-I-N-G after a Freak Earthquake!" or "Sunless Hennepin Near T-H-E W-I-N-G, Boosts Sales of Prozac!" or "Hadley's Folly...Rising costs of Keeping T-H-E W-I-N-G Snow-free Shuts down rest of Minneapolis Libraries! A cement wing that never will fly. How excessive and ridiculous! Madeline Douglass Kingfield REMINDERS: 1. Be civil! Please read the NEW RULES at http://www.e-democracy.org/rules.
