Artist wants to float 1,000-foot banana over Texas
Anyone see the San Antonio paper Sunday? Specifically, this story about Montreal artist Cesar Saez, who wants to float a banana dirigible, which is 1,000 feet long, over your head and mine? Saez said it will cost $1 million to do this.
HAHAHA! For a second, I thought that said $1 million.
Er, wait. That's correct.

This is what it might look like looking at a 1,000 foot floating banana that costs $1 million.

This is the track across the state that the $1 million banana will presumably follow.

Blair, I was about to congratulate you on another hi-larious photoshopping job.
But then I realized these are the actual promo photos for the project.
If these guys collect a million dollars before we turn a profit, I may commit hari kari.
With a banana.

So, it would be used for a <a href="http://encyclopedia.quickseek.com/images/Gw-tomphoenix.jpg">target drone</a>, right?
Pretty much a one-time application, though, don't you think?

Let's not scare the rural texans into thinking that the Soviets are invading in bananaships.

Artist's conception of what most Texans will see in the sky, regardless of what's actually there (even if the sky banana never takes off.)
