If only Andre the Giant were here today.....
He was the eighth wonder of the world, for those unfamiliar with him.

Hehe, I just looked up Andre...and he's born on the same day as I am.

It would be horrible if you looked like him also.
I was tempted, really tempted.
Besides, all of our johnson would fit in Paris Hilton's disease-hole. That would maker her a wonder itself. You wouldn't want that to happen would you?

Finally, the new seven wonders of the world is announced today:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/6281284.stm
- The Great Wall of China
- Jordan's Petra
- Brazil's Statue of Christ Redeemer
- Manchu Picchu in Peru
- Mayan ruins at Chichen Itza in Mexico
- Colosseum in Rome
- India's Taj Mahal
Honorable Wonder: Pyramid at Giza
I can't say I'm disappointed, so I'm glad the selections were more or less fair in an objective sense.

Hehe, I'm glad the Taj made it. 
Good picks overall, the only one I wasn't too sure about was the Statue of Christ Redeemer pick, but oh well...

I'm still laughing at the idea of a normal sized Andre.

Kinda disappointed the Easter Island Statues aren't there. The Great Wall is there, because there are many Chinese[/ASG rant]

We have the advantage, might as well use it.

Yeah, I voted for the Easter Island Statues and disappointed it wasn't picked but most of my other choices are there.

Interesting issue indeed, heard it on my car radio. Everything on that list would be worth seeing and I haven't seen one of them
