		<description>I&#039;ve got the oddest non-existent relationship with the Empire State Building. It&#039;s a fixture in the skyline, of course. And I&#039;ve seen it from afar a million times. But I&#039;ve never actually been in the building. 

About a decade ago, I was walking around mid-town with a friend. Just chatting and enjoying a cool, sunny day. I happened to glance at the building we were walking by and saw a plaque that identified as the Empire State Building. I stopped for a moment, looked up, patted the wall and gave a surprised &quot;Huh&quot;. The following conversation ensued:

Friend: &quot;What?&quot;
Me: &quot;Empire State Building&quot; as I pointed.
Friend: &quot;Yeah, so what?&quot;
Me: &quot;Nothing. I guess I just never realized it was right here before.&quot;
Friend: &quot;Are you kidding me? You must have seen it a million times?&quot;
Me: &quot;I know. I just never...ya know...knew exactly where it was.&quot;
Friend: &quot;How is that possible? It&#039;s HUGE and you&#039;ve been in the neighborhood hundreds or thousands of times?&quot;
Me: &quot;I really don&#039;t know. I never look up and I just don&#039;t really think about it.&quot;
Friend: &quot;Wow! You want to go inside and check it out?&quot;
Me: &quot;Nah...&quot;

Very odd.</description>
