Madness and genius are really only divided by a very fine line in my opinion.
People probably thought the same about Orville and Wilbur Wright all those years ago.
Before the war on terror, if I saw an unattended package I used to think "I'll be having that!"

Heck if I had a quater mil lying around, I'd pay to go into space. If I had a spare 20 mil, i'd go to the space station.

 If I where to build a realy big trebuchet, I could charge people. hmm Like 5 bucks maybe, to launch them into the lake. Disney strated small right? Better call my liar er i mean lawyer first.(product liability and all that).
The percentage you're paying is too high-priced
While you're living beyond all your means
And the man in the suit has just bought a new car
From the profit he's made on your dreams
