			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So I guess this thing has been around since 2000, but since it&#8217;s new to me, it&#8217;s getting posted.</p>
<p>This <strong>65 ft tall filing cabinet</strong> was erected in Napa Valley and unless you look closely at the picture, you just assume it&#8217;s another skyscraper.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m just curious as to how they got the thing to stand long enough without the wind blowing it over.

<p>Designer JooYounPaek has conjured up this little get up that inflates into a chair. Made from seven large, heavy duty trash bags, two foot pumps and a pair of slippers, this dress can get pumped up in a matter of seconds, anywhere.</p>
<p>Say you&#8217;re walking down the street and you feel the need for a little break. Squish, Squish Squish. Now, you&#8217;ve got yourself a nice little seat on Main Street.</p>
<p>But I&#8217;m really hoping this thing is just a gimmick and not something people will actually buy. It&#8217;s kind of comical really. The lady in the picture looks like she&#8217;s potty training on the sidewalk.</p>

<p>But don&#8217;t hide in your basement just yet. These buildings are nothing more than the headquarters of Krakow, Poland radio station Rmf Fm.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t know though, it may just be a cover up. The place looks like a set from the movie Total Recall and the interior is even more freakish.</p>
<p>Maybe they&#8217;re using the radio station as some kind of transmission headquarters to send messages back to their home planet.</p>
<p>We&#8217;re not alone.</p>
