Oh this is rich!

The Burj Dubai - the tallest structure on earth - was supposed to open on December 2, 2009, which is the United Arab Emirates' National Day.

Then we get this: "Burj Dubai delayed to match Ruler’s anniversary".

The opening of the Burj Dubai has been delayed for another month so it will coincide with celebrations for the fourth anniversary of Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid becoming the Ruler of Dubai, the developer behind the project said yesterday.

Oh, I'm sure it was delayed on purpose.

Riiiiiiiiiiight.

If you believe that I have this tower in the desert I'd like to sell you ...
