I remember seeing a canoe made out of bottles

How well would it hold up in a big storm?

[samtheman]

Got storms?

[cripplecreek]

Well, I'll be damned. It's the gentleman guppy. You know, he's like a turd that won't flush.

Looks like it is in the lagoon not on the ocean so.....

[Mercat]

Barking mad but fun.

[Diana in Wisconsin]

Please tell me that you, too, like Waterworld! I thought that movie was so much fun.

Can’t believe it was panned as badly as it was!

[cripplecreek]

Dennis Hopper made that movie work.

This former model is getting a bit long in the tooth but having a former model as a living partner can make a total hovel tolerable, at least for awhile.

[Red Badger]

Dancing With Dolphins was a Global Warming movie...........................

[Little Ray]

Pretty cool, but how is it going to do in the next tropical storm or hurricane?

[Chuzzlewit]

man...I’d do this with her in a heartbeat..so looks pretty darn nice to me.... but I’m easily fooled by attractive packaging.

[AngelesCrestHighway]

re-composted hovel...a high wind might launch the damn thing!

[hosepipe]

Dennis Hopper makes most movies he in........ WORK!..
the most under rated actor... in Hollyweird..

[Diana in Wisconsin]

I just enjoyed the story. I don’t spend my life looking for reasons to be offended when it comes to entertainment.

*SHRUG*

The lagoon/bay is where the ocean goes during a storm.

It looks like a pile of trash on it’s way to the shore.

Glad he had fun building it.

[Georgia Girl 2]

It will be great til the next Hurricane. :-)

I'm living on a floating home right now and am looking out over the water as I type this.

My house is not this ramshackle Swiss Family Robinson shack that he has, but a purpose built home that is siting on top of plastic encapsulated styrofoam floats. It has all the modern amenities you would expect in any recently built house. The only thing he's got going over me is the weather, as I'm in eastern Tennessee and he's much further south.
