The most widely read and popular post on this site is about high heels and a woman's sex life so apparently there is interest in high heels out there. Well, here is some bad news.... a British designer has introduced high heels without heels!

If you have ever been to Prague you will have appreciated its magnificence - its amazing architecture. It's a jewel of architectural culture and awe inspiring historic buildings... but not for much longer.

Once again, a beautiful and historic city has chosen to build a complete monstrosity of modern architecture out of character with its surroundings. Nope - its not a penis-shaped building like those in London and Barcelona and the subject of an earlier rant (Architecture and the Penis Plot).

It's worse than that.

Known fondly as the BLOB, this utter monstrosity of architectural stupidity is shaped like an Octopus!

What can the city leaders be thinking?

Can they not see that this ugly irrelevance is a Giant Octopus?

And what architect would propose such a thing in a city like Prague?

Was it a joke that got taken seriously?

I guess a city that is known also for its Bohemian culture and reputation for call girls and sex can now truly point to having a great big (Octo)pussy!

Prince Charles has long been at odds with modern architecture but I wonder what he thinks about architectures' current obsession with the Penis? Perhaps they have erection issues to which the only solution is to erect buildings shaped like one?

There are Penis shaped buildings dominating the skylines of London and Barcelona these days and for all I know maybe many more popular European cities (email me more examples please). Now I learn that a new clock in the main square of the little town of Brno here in the Czech Republic might be building a penis-shaped clock! I am considering a headline that reads "Brno's New C(l)ock".
