The Vertiginous Girder Restaurant, comes
in the form of a substantial "I" or "T"
beam, encased in a room sized box of
unbreakable glass, which is open at one
end.
To install it, you simply bolt it unto the
outside face of any building of suitable
height, and cut an access hole to enable
the hungry, but foolhardy patrons to
shuffle out along its stomach churning
length, in order to eat their sandwiches.

I like that picture; I've seen it before and wonder if it's for real. It seems so high. |

I think it was commissioned by the
Pikatawnee Arse Glue Company in about
1932. |

Now this is a lovely idea. Big precariously
placed bun. |

I always thought this was one my ideas that somebody would use and now they have. See last link. Can I claim royalties? |
