You forgot to mention "over budget"


Ah yes, didn't see that much of it.
I noticed La Beeno was up the duff again last week, in a roundup of
shots from teh series.
Does that woman never stop populating the planet?

Ineptocracy

(in-ep-toc-ra-cy) €“ a system of government where the least capable to
lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the
members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are
rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a
diminishing number of producers.

I liked it. Really nicely done.

But not much.

You could almost see the producers rubbing their hands with glee at this completely novel construction method - and their disappointment as time went on, and they realized the build was having rather *fewer* problems than a normal build.

They had to manufacture a bit of "bossy designer" tension to have any sense of conflict in the project at all. (And the designer was right - pictures on that curved wall would have looked awful.)
