      It'd be baller as hell if htat thing just has a hose running up the center and is being held aloft by water pressure directed back down.

        That would indeed be incredible but a sudden loss of pressure would lead to it crashing down and breaking into pieces lol. It’s actually held up by a big white pillar which you can kind of see in the photo (even though this photo itself seems designed to obscure it and create the illusion you mentioned).

    Jose Marti's writings are impossible to find in English, was curious after I read that Castro was inspired by him and that the dude was an early anti imperialist.

      Interesting. I’m fluent in Spanish but haven’t read much of his writings other than poetry. I’m a bit surprised there aren’t translations into English though, he’s considered the father of Cuban independence.

        Right, my husband asked other Latino comrades about him for me, but they were more concerned about Marti's masonry ties than his work with Cuban independence. Such is the state of the US left.
