Yeetle Box - Like A Rock!

San Francisco voters yesterday were weighing in on the future of the Rock, with a proposal that the city take control of Alcatraz, raze its notorious prison and erect a global peace center of mystical proportions. At this time, San Fransisco enginners are contemplating the weights and measures guidelines for structures of "Mystical proportions."

Said the lead project manager, "I think we got it somewhere within the vicinity of infinity. A very ambitious undertaking. But this is Federal property, so we're waiting to hear from Homeland Security, FEMA, and the Vice President's office for a coordinated response."

Proposition C was not legally binding and did not identify where the money would come from for the city to take over the island, now in federal hands. Dick Cheney, who once shot a man in the face, has stated he might take up residence in Alacatraz if the Democrats have their way.

The Global Peace Foundation center would "liberate energies, raising the whole consciousness of the Bay Area," according to that group's director, who calls himself Da Vid. Their web page sets a lofty goal:

By Converting Alcatraz Island, a place of pain and suffering,
Into a "JEWEL OF LIGHT".
We will activate Powerful Forces for Cooperation, Reconciliation & Healing.

"Like John Lennon, I may be a dreamer, but I'm not the only one," said Da Vid.

Other dreamers include Tom Cruise, George W. Bush, and David Halladay.
