Funny you should ask. In '63 my father built an underground house with
5,000 square feet. The roof of the house was 16 feet underground. It
was such a hit they had to move out and open it to the public for a year,
just to let the hoopla die down so they could move back in without the
doorbell ringing constantly. The house was featured in Life magazine and
Walter Cronkite had a segment called "Tu Tu's Tour of the Underground
House." Tu Tu was an 75 pound Chow Chow who loved cameras, posing if you
just held your hands to your face while saying "Smile." It was such a
hit, my Dad built one for the World's Fair in New York. Made the Wall
Street Journal and hundreds of papers across the country.



So you're a troll?



Never lived there myself. I was in Viet Nam at the time.

What were you doing in Nam in '63?
