April Fool's! Funny. Had me goin' until I read "for riders who know how exquisite and mastered squid inflation system is...." Too funny!

Please people. The world doesn't need any more baseless conspiracy theories. Let's stick to the facts and focus on the real world. The world is not flat.

Okay, FlyingSeb, I'll bite. But I'm not pumping all these kites! :o This photo was taken on "drying day" after my house flooded in a hurricane last year.
