Did You Hear About This?

29 Jan

A piano is shown sitting on a sandbar in Miami's Biscayne Bay. It was supposedly placed their by Nicholas Harrington.  A grand piano appeared on a sandbank in Biscayne Bay, Miami (go here for a better picture).  It was believed to have washed up until a student confessed that he and his father had placed it there in a bid to help his application to art school.

I admire his lateral thinking but what really tickled me was the official response:

Officials said they acknowledged the teen was trying to express his artistic side, but that he should have obtained the correct permits to do it.

I think they’re kind of missing the point, don’t you?
