Paris (NBp) - France unveiled the newly renovated Eiffel Tower today after a two year modernization and restoration project. Designers were going for an edgier look, while keeping the classic style.

"Zee tow-wear, she is beautiful, no?" inquired Jacques LeBeuffoon, chief designer on the project. "We wanted a tow-wear that the yoong peepool today cood relate to."


The UltraLeaning Eiffel Tower, LeBeuffoon Style

Critics say that the Parisians were just jealous of the Leaning Tower of Pisa, which has gained worldwide fame because of its tilt. A number of structural engineers have already condemned the Eiffel project, proclaiming that the new tower will likely fall over within a year.

LeBeuffoon has responded to the criticism. "What do zees enchineers know about art anyway? Zee Eiffel Tower iss a work off art, not some office building."

The Eiffel Tower has been redubbed The UltraLeaning Eiffel Tower, LeBeuffoon Style in honor of its updated look. The modernization project, which cost $7.2 million, is widely expected to be followed by a $15.7 million project to put the tower back the way it was.
