The heaviest building in the world is Bucharest's House of Parliament (pictured below). What's it weigh (within 100,000 lbs)? [image deleted for clarity] You contracted "what does" into "what's"? |

pps. I just looked it up on Wikipedia, which of course is the most reliable source in existence, and the Great Pyramid is estimated to be 50% heavier than Bucharest's House of Parliament. I consider the Great Pyramid to be a building. Take it up with Guinness. 4# was incorrect. |

Alice laughed. “There’s no use trying,” she said: “one can’t believe impossible things.”
“I daresay you haven’t had much practice,” said the Queen. “When I was your age, I always did it for half-an-hour a day. Why, sometimes I’ve believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.”

Gloria.
Waltons had a Mary Ellen or a Sue Ellen. Littlest was Elizabeth? Damned if I know what the other two boys names were.
I'm looking it up. Oh. Right. Three other boys.
Here's some trivia. There was an 8th child, another boy, a twin, who died in childbirth. What was his name? (I did not even know there was an 8th child.)
