Church is Winner's Church?

Google to see where it is located!!! Laughing

Wonder if some of the money that contributed to building that was from lottery winnings?

Do you know where the world's largest Roman Catholic Cathedral is? (Ivory Coast)

You're probably right MHK Laughing

I often wonder what archaeologists will say one day, upon finding the ruins of Vegas.

^^Hopefully, they will say, "Oh, look! Here is an ancient Western Union receipt, for someone in London. That's the way people got paid back then." hehehe Cool

Nahh...they won�t say anything...isn�t there the saying "What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas?" Laughing

^^ Yes, there is.

The Luxor is one damn fine piece of architecture. That nobody before had the idea of using that shape... Cool

Just too bad we only got there in the dark, because some certain ladies had to leave me waiting in a no-smoking-area while they went shopping...

Yes. A saying coined by losers for losers. Wink

I went to Vegas a few years ago on what you Sherman Tanks would refer to as a Bachelor Party, in UK lingo a stag do. And Vegas rocked.

When I got back I attempted to change up the $100 bills I had from my last nights winning at craps, only to be refused by Thomas Cook on the basis that the watemarks were dodgy. After a small coronary I took them to my local HSBC (it might have been Midlands at the time), and the young lady was only to happy to change them, she had never even seen dollars before. If anyone wants her location, please let me know.

Ah, but far more architecturally significant is the world's biggest gumboot (Wellington boot), all 7.9 metres of it Smile

I was looking for a suitable name for my soon-to-be church website. Very Happy

How 'bout the world's largest lobster? I haven't seen it myself, but I believe it's a fossilized exoskeleton from 2,000,000 BC or something, and the ancient hermaphrodites used to sacrifice virgins to it every May 24th. There was no internet back then, so historical details are rather sketchy.

I peed on the world's largest nickel once, but no photos of that event are available.

@ windy

How about getting your lads to make the world's smallest '5inners Church' out of discarded cardboard, wood and other bits and bobs? Obviously, they would have to submit detailed drawings to your specifications first for approval. Once built you then have them set fire to it to purge their souls. Photos obligatory.

They could draw inspiration from this...

Thanks TS.

How 'bout the World's Largest Crucifix, in my home state of Michigan? Okay, it's no longer the biggest, but it used to the the biggest!

I'll have you know I've seen the world's biggest worm, in Bass, Victoria Australia. 250m long, it is home to the Giant Gippsland earthworm which grows up to 3m long.

Or a portable church (turtle shell with belltower) to be carried by the sinner on his sorry back to busy places? Imagine a whole bunch of them together! Laughing

Maybe something like this?

So that's what happened to all the helmets of the Star War troopers. Very Happy
