    Being a ginger it's my dream to one day make it to the Ginger Festival in the Netherlands. A place where rainbows cut through discrimination and unicorns roam the hills. And, most of all, a place where a ginger's erect penis isn't referred to as a rocket taking off. Actually, on second thought, I kinda like that...

    Happening in Britain too.

    But the Brits have a solution. They send their gingers to the States.

    Like (the original) Fergie.

    The most soulless one of all.

    @mladen: I am pretty sure the British started this one. Well they would, wouldn't they, as that is where most people with that coloring come from. They've always thought there was something wrong with the gingers. I don't get it.

    [news.bbc.co.uk]

    And as if this story weren't sad enough, I recall reading that people with red hair/very pale skin coloring are thought to experience more pain.

    @Rozelle’s Bagman: I heard it's got to do with the kids born after Viking rampages. Nice peaceful life, then the village gets ransacked by brigands, and then nine months later... the ginge! So, bad association.

    I got this from a genuine British Ginger Person.

    @Beau Nerd: I adore redheads. The former (and late) Mr. Duck_Lips had a head of flaming curls that some mistook for an Oleg Cassini stretch wig. His hair was a work of art but unfortunately, neither product of the doomed union produced gingers. Just a blond and a brunette. Yawn. Keep up the good work.

    I'm an architect whose done a lot of high-end and medium-end retail design, and I look at these renderings and see a whole lot of fail.

    I'd want to double check some of the square footages of the rentable areas for those shops before passing final judgement, but it looks from the plans and renderings that they are far too small to accommodate any real retail operation. And if South Street Seaport taught us anything, it's that a mall of kiosk-sized retailers does not a successful venture make. There isn't enough foot traffic or revenue for it to make any sense.

    My opinion is that the reports of 75% leased is exaggeration, and if the whole thing does manage to open, it will be shuttered in two years. Seriously, the biggest retail space is on the second floor of a church with no street presence? Really?

    Now you know how Anglicans felt when The Church of the Holy Communion was deconsecrated and made into a nightclub (I'm thinking of it's later more B&T iterations, the Limelight was something that everyone could get behind). Maybe it's next incarnation will be as a Scientology Celebrity Center!

    I had an afterprom at this place when it was called "Avalon". That night it was filled with high school students and creepy 30-year old men.

    These renderings sicken me.
