This is their content. The Washington Post is completely and absolutely pathetic.Actually, this was the most entertaining story Ive read out of the Washington Post in a long time.

Seriously. Really.
I have argued with them. Any evidence to the contrary of their beliefs is obviously fake.

The guy needs to check out the “hull down” phenomenon on the coast near the High Seas.

Interesting his name is Hughes. His “Uncle Howard” built a huge wooden airplane that would serve him better than that rocket.

Good thing I ‘searched’ I was going to refer people to ‘my’ tag line...

Per the article:
Its scary as hell, Hughes told the AP. But none of us are getting out of this world alive.
This is true. Yet some will try to live to see its edges.

Definitely a dweller at the shallow end of the gene pool. I say an immediate advancement to the Darwin Award Hall of Fame is in order. Such blinding stupidity must be rewarded.

I wonder if any relation to the ‘Blue Goose’ Hughes?
Of course with him (HH) it didn’t matter if it worked or not as he had more money that the rest of everyone....
Then again he was a bit ‘tetched’

Much cheaper to hire an airplane ... he can get a lot higher than 1800 feet that way. Hell, here in Albuquerque, we're already between 5,000 and 6,500 feet, and then we have the Sandia Mountains due east of the city that rise from about 6,500 feet at the base to just under 10,700 feet at the peak. There's even a tram that goes from the base to near the peak for about $25. A tank of gas and a ticket up the tram will get him higher than his little rocket.

Taking a boat around the world would solve this but he would claim the boat turned around at some point.
