thats not xanadu, that's just the new giants-jets stadium

#1 is right -- new Giants stadium. Close, but no prize.

As I've said before, you kids outta shut off the PC and go out and see the world now and then. That, a little fact checking, some spelling/proofreading and you might grow up to be regarded as serious media.
