I guess they realized the once the foundation was in and started to build, the the overhangs were going to hit and the AHJ needed a distance requirement, they decidided to lean the building over. ha. ha.

This is a good one.

I think both boys had a little too much pizza and beer.
Me? Pizza and margaritas. Of course, then I'm the Leaning Tower of Pizza.
