Default Will This Things Fly?

Hello Sowpub Readers,

If this is not the correct place to post this message then I apoligize and will accept deletion. However, if you don't try you never know, so here goes.

I was reading the article about Dr. Paul Hartnung (excuss the possible misspelling)and how he sold the Brooklin Bridge back in the early 80's. I always try to think of how to bridge other's successes into my own situation and as a result of the article I had a brainstorm. I live in sunny S. Florida (Palm Beach County to be exact)right around the corner from glitzy, ritzy Palm Beach, FL and all the scandel, wealth and lust associated with it. Several years back I actually bartended on Palm Beach at a local neighborhood where the local zillionaires came. I always thought about how to bottle and sell this sizzle.

Well after reading the Brooklin Bridge story I thought, why not bottle the actual sand from beachfront Palm Beach in small glass containers each holding appr. 1-2 sq. inches of beachfront Palm Beach property and sell it. It could be marketed many ways and extra benefits attached such as a monthly ezine covering a "lifestyles of the rich" type angle with insights on wealthy lifestyles. Hey, if someone could sell pieces of old wood from some old bridge the where could this lead?

Is this a crazy idea? If so let's all get a good laugh out of it. If not, then maybe we can think and say, "hummmm"?

What do you think.

Mitch
