Last weekend, Oregon gas station owner Kent Couch took off on a 193 mile solo flight -in a lawn chair attached to 105 helium balloons! He took along food and drinks, a bb gun, and a parachute. His flight, reminiscent of Larry Walters flight in 1982, reached an altitude of 13,000 feet and lasted nine hours. http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/O/OR_FLYING_LAWN_CHAIR_OROL-?SITE=ORSAL&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT -via Fark

You go, Murdoch!
besides, how do you end up busting something that was reported by 5 airline pilots, videotaped, and the man got a citation from the FAA over? it already happened, they were just seeing how.

How many times have you said, I wish I've thought of that because it was just so darn simple but yet, you thought it was stupid.
Next time you come up with an idea, stop and really think about making it into a product, lol...
If you really want to make millions, make old book smell in a can.
Instant Manure-stench for my series of Farm-seasons-books!
Fertilizer-and-daffodil-smell for my Home-gardner-books!
- And of course Fresh-Sushi-odor around the cookbooks on how to be a homegrown Japanese Chef...
And then several containers of different smells connected to a USB-port and you can have Smell-o-Vision while browsing the internet. :-)
