Never really thought that chile had that kind of building structures.  They sure are keeping up with the rest of the world in architect.

I'm always amazed at statement like this.  Many Americans really think the rest of the world lives in clay huts.  Get a passport and broaden your horizons.

Not trying to troll, but in many ways I'd consider America to be behind some other parts of the world in architecture.  Look at the Middle East or China for example: there are many buildings in both with breathtaking designs.  In America, it still seems to mostly be concrete blocks :(

Considering that most of the world does live in shacks, especially outside the few major cities that might exist in whatever country and sometimes within those cities. It's not difficult to understand where the ideas come from.

We design buildings to be torn down every 20 years or so.  This is good for business and keeps people employed.

Those other dolts build something to last forever and no one ever gets to build there again.  Stupid imo.

Don't forget the package of Levi Garett chewing tobacco. :D


Good call on the nose stuff. Has been a lifesaver for allergies. The other is eye drops for contacts.


Santiago is a modern city with buildings built to very good earthquake standards, that having been proved recently. Have been traveling here for nearly 14 years.

On the subject of chicas, Chile is not all that great. In fact it's down right bad. However, I do get to travel to Brazil on a regular basis and that's a whole other story.

Remember Santiago is about 5,000 miles from DFW.

Speaking of archtecture. Ive been following the construction of the Burj Dubai project for the past three years. Been a pleasure to watch this building evolved over time.
