I've always wondered about those large beams! Loved your microfiction.
ReplyDeleteAir traffic will suffer...
ReplyDeletefantastic idea from the picture
Good one, you certainly got a laugh or two out of me.
ReplyDeleteHa ha! Like something from a Batman film!
ReplyDeleteIt's teething problems, Mayor. Wait till you see our plans for the stature of Liberty...Gone for SF adventure today. My 140 is here
ReplyDeleteI like it! :-)
ReplyDeleteI don't think that ANYTHING disrupts that traffic!!
ReplyDeleteGreat Job...G
I like your take on this, Janice. I hadn't considered the words actually up there in the sky. :)
ReplyDeletePerfect! looks like a fun way to get the juices flowing on a Monday.
ReplyDeletep.s. Forgive my silliness, Dr. Erica is my daughter. I'm just having SO much fun putting an M.D. after her name.
Have a great week!!
Maybe this is the future for us in terms of Big City Advertising -- a holographic image that hovers above the city...although if you're already in the air traffic pattern, you're probably not the one they need to convince to come visit?
ReplyDeleteAre they calling Batman? Or is there a new show on Broadway?
ReplyDeletePuttin' on the ritz.
Dear jabblog,
ReplyDeleteFor once I can't think of a suitable reply... Cheers, have a good weekend.
Very well done and good take off the Hollywood sign. Here's hoping that the laser beams won't disrupt an already over loaded air traffic system :) Well done my friend. Have a great Monday :)
ReplyDeleteawesome one!
ReplyDeletePlanes will be falling from the sky right and left. NYC will have to choose between giant signs/laser beams and air traffic.
ReplyDeleteGood one!
It's NY. If you're going to do it, do it big, right?
ReplyDeleteAt least the beams mean that birds will be able to see where they're flying at night! Good story.

Dear Aunt Janice,
ReplyDeletethat was jst one picture you saw. Blogger was giving us a hard time and we took very long to get the real post published. so nice of you to still bother to leave a comment. but please please do go back and read our story today. we promise you it is special.
and yeah..we shall have a party on the 15th. thanks for your wishes. Actually Daddy's bday is on the 14th so usually some sort of celebration goes on till the 15th and we have a fun tme altogether.
note from Mummy: dear Janice, thanks so much for asking. I am feeling much better now. but there are these moments of gloom which sets in sometimes and i jsut don't feel like doing anything. not even blogging and cooking which i so love to do.
guess it will take some time.
take care
It *is* a cutting edge look isn't it? LOL I wouldn't want to be a pilot navigating those --
ReplyDeleteVery clever. I can see how those beams can overwhelm a city :) LOL.
ReplyDeleteToo bad New York doesn't have a nice mountain its sign on. The Hollywood sign is pretty. This NYC one reflects better.
ReplyDelete..
Dear Janice,
ReplyDeleteForgive me, I was half asleep. No wonder I could not think straight...
Now I get it! The Manhattan skyline - always changing, always showbiz!
Loved this! You are good with words!
ReplyDeleteThat illustration looks like from the fifties.
ReplyDeleteOne of the few places I WOULDN'T want to be beamed to. :) Nicely done.
