BIG ADO FOR BILL IN LITTLE ROCK
November 5, 2004 -- THE Clinton Presidential Library in Little Rock opens Nov. 18, with a four-day celebration that begins Nov. 14. President Clinton Avenue will be turned into a mall. Bands, singers, stalls, merchants, gifts, arts and crafts, big video screens, bleachers, whatevers enough for 27,000 guests. No room to accommodate the 35,000 requests for invites. The leftover 8,000 will have to watch on TV or read my description today. Maggie Williams, who was Hillary's White House chief of staff and Bill's post-White House chief of staff, gave me an advance tour.
Breathtakingly beautiful, the library's two structures overlook the Arkansas River, a working water highway of barges and boats. The ultramodern high-tech repository of archives is a "green" building. Energy efficient; partly powered via 306 solar panels; 10 miles of underground radiant heating, "like Hula Hoops laid straight." The floors are made of bamboo, a "renewable [resource] and durable floor that takes heavy traffic." If you drive an electric vehicle, you can even recharge the thing in their parking lot. OK?
Some of its features: The Celebration Circle, which means bricks ringing the outside bear donors' names. The Working Wall features the names of 1,500 of those who helped build it.
This William J. Clinton Presidential Center and 39-acre park also boasts a deck which will house Cafe 42, Clinton having been the 42nd president. The day I saw it, it was mud, hardhats, cranes and earthmovers — but everyone swore it would be a café in 13 days.
The fourth floor has a replica of his Oval Office; the ground floor, his '93 "Parade One" presidential limo, "the one with the boxy back."

With the sink?
Looks like a double-wide on stilts. Bubba Jeffy Klintoon & Co should feel right at home.
Personally, I live the viper that is part of the ad beside the picture of Clinton.
First of all, I meant like not live, but also I now see the ad changes.
Bummer. It was striking towards him even.
LOL. If there was truth in architecture...
Rush calls it "The Clinton Presidential Library and Massage Parlor"
Nothing against trailers, but given the Toons' rep, I'd've thought they'd've avoided any trailer analogies like the plague.
Rush called it the Clinton Presidential Library and Massage Parlor, which I thought was apropos. ;)
Agreed-- very unfortuante imagery for Bill. I thought that Bill and Hill were so smart that they would have been more sensitive about that. LOL-- it cracks me up!
That statement is priceless.
Bring plenty of quarters for the peep show entertainment. My understanding is that there won't be a change machine.
Any full time salaried whores working there??
Seems like my imagination might be at work or my eyes deceive me, but it looks to me like a bridge to nowhere, with an escape ladder in case Hillary arrives unexpectedly.
I assume the Red Light District leads up to the door?
