From ananova.com
A Chinese man has built a house out of two cement pipes.
Xin Yucai, 50, of Shenyang city, even turned down the chance to move into his daughter's apartment he enjoyed living in his unusual home so much.

"My father likes to do things differently," she explained.
"He bought two cement pipes from a construction company and turned them into a real house, with windows, door, and even a chimney."
The daughter says her apartment has enough space for her father but Xin still insisted on making a house of his own.
"We moved once, and he took the pipe house with him."
The house has become a city attraction.
"From time to time, people will come to have a look and take pictures with the pipe house," a neighbour told Huashang Morning News.

"Are you ready for the time of life
Its time to stand up and fight
So alright
So alright
Hand in hand we take a caravan to the marble land
One by one we gonna stand up with pride
One that cant be denied"

While working on the Big Dig it was not unusual to come to work and have to wake up the homeless who had spent the night in the cement pipes stored around the job.
