i'm in need of a little help in bullshit detection. the URL below
links to the homepage of a condo development company that is about to
start rehabbing a historical building in downtown birmingham. i
applaud downtown redevelopment, but i do not appreciate the amount of
bullshit in both the text and art on this page:
of the four photographs on the right, only the third one down is a
photograph of a location in birmingham. i'd to ask your help in
identifying the other three.
for the record, misleading statements in the text include the
description of the future condo building's neighborhood as
"friendly," when it is actually an abandoned area of urban blight,
and the claim that the building is located near birmingham's light
rail nexus, when we have no light rail whatsoever (unless you
consider amtrak and norfolk-southern "light").
here's the url:

woes can be cured by a daily application of old Greek myths to their
private parts."
