Uhhh...I'm at a loss for words... The Cosmic Muffin

The horrifically-named Cosmic Muffin is an old Boeing 307 Staroliner airplane that's been converted into a luxury yacht. Why? That's a question for the ages, my friend. All I know is that a couple of dudes named Dave Drimmer and Jeff Gibbs are gut renovating the thing and turning it into some sort of dork waterpalace. And people say the rich throw their money away on frivolous things!

[swifty]

The name comes from one of Jimmy Buffet's book Where is Joe Merchant?. Go figure Parrot Heads in S. Florida.

[geetrue]

I bet this is the thing that dropped fifty pounds of ice over Iowa ... :lol:

By removing its uglyness from the face of the Earth? I'd give you at least an extra 1000 for that personally! :D
