We would get smashed and race the elevators up and down until they stalled...then we'd go tip some cows. Great fun!

And I used to ride that lift to work every day . . . some many many years later. Jen's in the know. You can always judge an establishment by their bathroom. It might be five star out the front, but the number of no star bathrooms is astounding. I used to work in a building in Melbourne (Aust) that was the first building in the city to have a lift.

I know it sounds weird, but I just love bathrooms--especially if they have some kind of cool sink with water flowing over a statue or something. It's bizarre.
