ajzepp Posted October 25, 2006 Posted October 25, 2006 I agree about the Falls. When people hear I'm from there, they say it must've been so cool. I tell them they can duplicate the effect by putting some rocks in their bathtub and turning the water on full blast. 816388[/snapback] You two are like those guys who have really hot wives, but even though everyone else in the world can see how hot they really are, you've oblivious to it since you've been with them for ten years. Niagra Falls is some impressive schitt!!!
GoodBye Posted October 25, 2006 Posted October 25, 2006 I agree about the Falls. When people hear I'm from there, they say it must've been so cool.

I guess I don't notice it until some out-of-towner points it out.
MarkyMannn Posted October 25, 2006 Posted October 25, 2006 There are many different categorys for Seven Wonders of the World(ancient, natural, etc). It seemed like this vote was all architecture wonders- hence my suggestion of the Pantheon.

Add this, supposedly one of the few man-made objects visible from space it is that large. In nearby PA: Tunkhannock T V#2

apuszczalowski Posted October 27, 2006 Posted October 27, 2006 What? No votes for Tedy Bruschi?? 817303[/snapback] Nope, He is not eligble for the list, its the 7 wonders of the the world, he is not a wonder, we all know of his powers and god like ability
Hardy Pyle Posted October 27, 2006 Posted October 27, 2006 The best things I have seen (and all relative to where my mind was at the time, etc.) on no basis than my own subjective taste based on the breathtaking factor. 1) Golden Temple - India (way better than the Taj Mahal, IMHO) 2) Machu Pichu - Peru 3) La Sagrada - Barcelona I'm sure I'm forgetting something, but those are close to my top 3. Rome is cool, but I can't think of anything in Rome topping out one of those 3.
