Friends, (See previous posts as to how I feel about using that opening term). Anyway, up next is some brief footage shot atop the world famous Empire State Building in New York City. Completed in 1931 and standing at some 1,250 feet, the edifice really needs no introduction. I did the $25 tour up to the observation deck on the 86th floor and it was worth every cent. It was so impressive to see the amazing city of New York laid out before my eyes from such a height. My darling girl Aisling was with me, too, as you'll see from the video. Luckily, there was no sign of King Kong the day I was there. Please enjoy the footage: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WDCpvkZRxjs&feature=plcp With utter humility, Brian
