I'm glad I don't live by a leaning tower, it would drive me crazy to see it everyday.

Our house was built sometime before 1901 (City Hall burned down that year, and lost the records), and there isn't a right angle in the place. I've had to add a couple of supports in the basement. My uncle wants to raise our house, and redo the foundation. He did it to his sister's house, and apparently windows that wouldn't open and close before now do.
