Nix the Bridges!

My wife says I think about some of the weirdest things. I wholeheartedly agree. This was one of those irregular brainwaves that seem to pop up ever so regularly...

In the last presidential election, there was a lot of talk about improving our infrastructure. Of course, this is political talk for "let's tax 'em more!" It is a dilemma though: we want to take our cars wherever we want, but we need the infrastructure to do it. And that takes money!

But how about this one: Forget about bridges. Bridges are costly things, to build and to maintain. So let's save a few bucks by nixing the bridges. Oh, but how will we get where we want to go? Ingenuity will solve the problem! I thought, "Just make cars that can double as boats." To my surprise, it seems I am not too whacked out on this one. Behold, the car that can float!
