I like the idea of being able to close off the outside interference bu does it have to look like a Bee Hive?

As for the other place I will reserve Commet, but what ever floats your boat.

What is this? A Dating site, or what?  Don 't you idiots look at what is being written?  Or are you that spaced out that you don't care what is happening in the world.    I guess that this is why the world in going to hell in a hand basket.......

Different and non-traditional doesn't automatically mean COOL. A few of these are too far out there.

Rackspace in San Antonio has its headquarters, called "the Castle," in an old shopping mall.  Inside, there is the world's largest word search on one wall, a slide that takes you from the top floor to the bottom in the old food court, an original escalator with a glass side and several other fun things.  The London office is pretty cool, too, featuring a mini cooper as a meeting room.

Is this the Republican coolest USA corporate offices, or the Outsourced OFFShored India and other non tax paying coolest corporate offices.   Boy !  Bet the hungry children of America will just eat up  this Republican cake.    Well, i suppose the Republican Outsource OFFShore offices that help starve the children will also help "reduce the surplus population."

Wow!  These are impressive, & must have cost a fortune.  Where did all that money come from?  Oh, yeah, our wallets.

 At least they didn't waste it on product quality, lower prices, employee benefits, living wages....

Equities climbed steadily since the opening bell as investors prepared for tomorrow's policy decision from the Federal Reserve.
