Sleeping on the plane

When I was a kid, riding along Highway 99 in central California was an adventure. There were roadside drive-up hamburger stands built in the shape and color of gigantic oranges, and several gas stations had World War II surplus fighter airplanes that appeared to have crashed into the roof and were still poking out. The giant oranges are all but gone (I think one remains near Madera) and all the airplanes were probably made into beer cans. A picture of a now-defunct Giant Orange is on this site, the sixth picture from the top.

So what’s next in the world of strange? How about this—
