Hmm,

I'm just wondering if that was to justify laying down.

Because if you crane your neck back like that and you're taking something for blood pressure, you get kind of woozy.

So that's what a capitol looks like with all the parasites.

Nice.

Wince said...

That Rotunda looks like a cervix.

Quick, George, ask Romney a question about reproductive rights.

This is the Capitol at Nebraska, which kind of has 3 domes at different levels. This is the top one, at the 14th floor, which is sort of mausoleum like.

I like Wisconsin's Rotunda better.

Rotund refers to the oratory.

Toad Trend said...

Curious infatuation with rotundas.

Do rotundas in general enhance the protest experience?

Does chanting, drums and airing of grievances sound better inside a rotunda?

I've been going round and round on this.

So Althouse layed down in a room she describes as "mausoleum like".
How goth. Were you clutching a lilly?

In order to combat rising obesity, the Rotunda at the Capitol in Lincoln, Nebraska was renamed the Thintunda.

To promote a low carb diet, the University of Nebraska Cornhuskers mascot was revamped, now looking rail thin and renamed The Soyhusker.

"CornMidsizers" was briefly entertained as an option.

Induced monotony.

Poor Beezow Doo-Doo

Husker. There's that husk controversy again that happens in my mind. Logically a corn husker would put husks on corn and his converse would be a dehusker. The resulting naked corn would be unhusked. But that is not the case and so I must abide in Reverso World with all you wrong-word-saying people.

'Corn shucker' is different. There is no such controversy involving the term shucker.

MadisonMan said...

Is it the Rotunda, or is it the room where they make Fizzy Lifting Drinks at the Wonka Factory?

The Crack Emcee said...

From the Wonka Factory to Alice In Wonderland!

I can transition with the best of 'em,...

I'll listen for this next time I watch a movie that has the bad words dubbed out.

Looks like the Neural Neutralizer from a long ago episode of Star Trek...used "therapeutically" by the ominously named Dr. Van Gelder at the Tantalus Penal Colony.
