yeah, i've read about that. ali must have a lot of patience, i hate when my parents have work done in our house because there's all these strangers around. but to have a whole new level put on, you'd have to move out for awhile. they have a beautiful house, though.

maybe it's ali's way of softening bono back into domestic life. he'll be home in dublin but not really HOME.

It passed last week virtually unnoticed as it was in the name of Mr. and Mrs. P. Hewson -- Paul Hewson being Bono's real name.

Very tricky, Bono!

So the 'chicken and egg' theory along these lines:

Does Bono's half-Catholicness cause him to have lack of inner-pantal control, or does not having inner-pantal control mean that his bottom half MUST be Catholic???

OK, sorry for being pissed cos my dad doesn't have millions of dollars to throw around...but the statement that they need a bigger place because they have 4 growing kids?? Come on...does each kid need his own wing?

Sorry, guess I'm jealous...

Same. My dad is building an addition to our kitchen and it's SO expensive. You need permission for everything. *grunt* No Xmas presents! Maybe socks.

I know exactly what you mean...it just irks me when I read about these guys building and buying huge mansions. I mean, of course youre gonna want a nice place to live if you've got that kind of money, and of course you want to have room for the hundreds of children that they have...but come ON! I hate thinking of the lads as so extravagant....

I would expect someone like Sting or Mick Jagger to build and extra STORY onto their home, but Bono? Come on buddy, your ironically decadent days are OVER! Unless you want to bring MacPhisto back, knock it off!

This is why I am going to be Bruce Springsteen when I grow up.

I will afford a ginormous house, and all youse guys can move in.

And by then Bono will be easier to catch! Unless he has a motorized wheelchair. CRAP. Larry will trip me with his cane! no! And Dick Clark will still be alive.

Edge's ass? It will be completely GONE. *sigh* What a horrible future.

Well when I become Bruce Springsteen I will magically make them live forever in their prettiest forms. HOO-AH. Anatomically correct, too.

Thank you.

P.S. I hate cell phones, too. Thank you.

Yes, it just irks me because a few days ago I was worried about paying rent, paying other bills, being able to buy groceries, and also Christmas presents! But still, I've been reasonably comfortable and middle-class my whole life, so I guess I've got it better then others...

LOL Mona--I can see Larry being as fiesty old man...and Dick Clark still being alive when I'm an old lady (when will people realize that he's really an alien??)!

ROTFLMAO!!!! Um, by then what will have happened to Adam's.....

And I agree w/ Lady Lemon and Echo-it does seem rather extravagant. But it's his money and his right to do whatever he wants w/ it, I guess. Compared to other rock stars, they do seem to live 'modestly'.

PS-when Larry adds on to his-and he does already own every house on his street I think

If I was rich, I'd have a huge house too.

I'm sure the man's got lots of stuff...needs room for it and such.

I know this is old but maybe in interest for someone. They got no on their request.
Ali gave an interesting interview just recently and told the reporter about it. You can read here what she said. She's an angel!

No more kids for Bono says Ali...

Bono's Sweetest thing, his wife Ali Hewson, has spoken exclusively to ShowBizIreland.com last week admitting that the couple will never have any more children.

Speaking in U2's hotel The Clarence last Thursday Ali said, "The house is full enough. No more Kids. That's it we are done and we are very happy. Definitely no more kids we are over run as it is."

But, Bono is not the only man Ali is laying down the law with. The Irish Taoiseach Bertie Ahern and the British Prime Minister Tony Blair are also coming under fire from Mrs Bono.

"I'm actually going into see the Irish government this week. I have something I am organizing for this year but is nothing like the charity fashion show I organized. It is about Sellafield. I'm really trying to get everybody to do something."

She went on, "Since September 11th I have definitely been more conscious. Who knows what terrorists will do. Sellafield can't be fully protected. We will lobby the Irish government. Not just Bertie Ahern. We will be going after Tony Blair as well."

Ali also spoke about the couple being refused planning permission for a whole new floor on the couple's Killiney home recently.

"We didn't get permission but that's okay. An Taisce are doing a good job and keeping an eye out for everybody. So, as long as we are treated the same as everybody else that's fine. I am not bothered because it's one less thing to worry about this year."

Ali was joined in the Clarence by the lead singer of The Cranberries Dolores O'Riordan and Adi Roche, the director of the Chernobyl Children's project to launch The Cranberries new single "Time is Ticking Out" which is in aid of the charity and was inspired by Ali's work for the charity.
 
according to this article, Larry wants to extend as well.... why??? doesn?t he own like three houses side by side already. Maybe he should just build some tunnels to connect his three houses
