Interesting.

And I thought Petra was just for the Swimsuit Issue (http://www.boston.com/travel/gallery/new_seven_wonders/?p1=MEWell_Pos2)


The new seven
wonders of the world
More than 2,000 years after ancient Greeks identified the Seven Wonders of the World, millions of people around the globe cast Internet ballots to update the list with seven new wonders.

The Taj Mahal in India is one of the seven winners. The other winners are The Great Wall of China, Petra in Jordan, Brazil's statue of Christ the Redeemer, Peru's Machu Picchu, Mexico's Mayan ruins at Chichen Itza, and the Colosseum in Rome.

Well, Petra HAD to be on the list. I mean, that's where they keep the Holy Grail.

Chichen Itza? So the Incas had the first fast food place. Big deal.

Enjoyed a remarkable career resurrection that began at age 79, and ended shortly before his death at age 100.

I'm a bit peeved that "The World's Largest Ball of Yarn" wasn't a finalist.

I think the Pyramids got grandfathered in somehow, since they were on the original list a kajillion years ago.

Yup, maybe it should be a top 10 list or something.

Speaking of the praying hands, the fact that our boy Oral raised ten bucks when he said God would take him home if he didn't.

And Catherine Zeta-Jones.
