We are in 2012 and we just discovered antigravity. Finally I had what I need to complete my crazy project of flying above the clouds. I bought an old water racer and attached a pair of wings to it. For the propulsion I attached a jet engine under the belly. The antigravity is in the front to give the extra lift capacity. Everything went well on my first flight. Unfortunately I hit a couple of seagulls and I had to use my parachute to return to earth...

I should have listen to my friend when he told me not to fly above a McDo...
