The Chrysler Building is the prettiest building in New Yawk. The Empire State is pretty handsome, too, but it ain’t all chromed and swoopy like it was designed by a sober kind of Frank Gehry, instead of the regular kind of Frank Gehry that’s abroad in the land designing bent buildings these days.

All that being said, for one brief shining moment, he was on top of the world, ma.  Doesn’t matter if he falls off, or climbs back in. The moment’s over one way or the other.

(Thanks to Gerard at American Digest, who was regularly pooped on by Chrysler eagles back in the day, for sending that one along)
