I'm beginning to think he's stalking me.

Seriously, I make a couple of friends who work at MIT, and the next thing you know, Stata Center. I have to move to LA to be with my family, Disney Hall. The Professor gets a job at Bard; suddenly, Gehry's doing their Arts Center. I visit Las Vegas just once, and now he's built something there, too.

I've had nightmares about being forced to live in Gehry buildings. The first time I went to Disney Hall, I had the unsettling experience of being pulled back from a plate glass window by my mother. Mr. Gehry decided that EXIT signs with backs to them wouldn't look right, so the exit sign reflected directly into a plate glass window. With the reversal of a back, it looked like the exit was through the window.

Anyway, I know this parcel of land. I know the buildings that are currently on it are far from inspired, but it's still a really bad idea. Plus, four acres for Eisenhower? Seriously? I thought that's what Presidential libraries were for.
