Developers are plotting a nearly 93,000-square-foot indoor rainforest with free-flying birds, sloths, snakes and exotic plants — smack in the middle of Arizona’s scorching Sonoran Desert.
Dubbed Paradise Earth, the four-story attraction is planned for 10.5 acres of Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community land near Scottsdale and is being billed by its creators as the largest indoor rainforest in North America.
The elaborate wildlife exhibit would also house freshwater fish, two-toed sloths, reptiles, amphibians and invertebrates, according to a conditional-use presentation submitted to tribal officials.

RE: Fashions....
Funny on The Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show yesterday they were discussing the belief that lesbian women were said to be big buyers of Subaru vehicles so men passed up on trying to meet them. When one said it might not be true (buyer survey years ago made Subaru target them), the other said what if a woman wore Birkenstock shoes, driving her Subaru to where she had a season ticket for the WNBA game. Maybe give up on her.
Other said Birkentocks went out and back in fashion and are now bought by male and females currently.
Rush used to say: “We have to remember rain forests used to be called jungles.”
Anybody ever seen US Sen. Elissa Slotkin with her shoes off?

Now, now, Frank, she's lost a lot of weight as she prepares to run for the 2028 Dem presidential candidacy. Gotta up her sexy game, dontcha know.
Besides, all sloths actually have three toes (on their hind limbs), but some have only two toes on their forelimbs (shouldn't that be "fingers"? Just sayin'...)
We already have an aquarium out there. Might as well add an indoor rain forest.
The irony is that, once upon a time, during the dawn of the dinosaurs, this part of the Arizona desert was a lush, tropical rainforest. There’s a lot of fossil evidence to that effect. A long before that, it was under the ocean.
Headen out to Eden:
Like Pritzker and others there has been no report of horrible side effects described on the TV ads for the fat loss treatments.
That makes me disappointed.
Patience, patience. Some side effects take a long time to appear. You may yet be rewarded.
Get the bill passed first & then they will figure out a plan later. Of course, the water would still not be available, so somebody(s) would have to go bankrupt...as planned.
” Of course, the water would still not be available”
But, but, some clown was just posting that the place “makes” water...................
Thanks. I needed that.
I couldn’t get to the remote mute button fast enough for the saturation ads on tv here in Michigan when that repulsive sow
Slotkin hid her Dem Party affiliation and her true anti-American beliefs as she ran and won a small margin victory.
Then she went all woke and all antifa and all anti-American including enthusiastically being in he group of traitors with Mark Kelly who encouraged service members in uniform to refuse to obey commanders’ orders if they disagreed with them. Something totally traitorous.
But she was an early example of the current trend: “Who, me? All those website manifestos for socialism have been wiped. I’m just a good ol’ gal (or a good ol’ guy) you’d like to see at a sunday dinner.”
“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.”
For the few who don’t remember, this was from George Orwell’s novel 1984.
Add gray wolves. They need some space
Digital data storage and management have made the process easier than Orwell could ever have imagined.
True. More than once I returned to a Google search to find something I absolutely know and remember I quoted or linked on FR. Gone.
Wonder how many other things are gone.
