Today on the CB Radio Show, Chad and I discovered a service that will literally fly an airplane into a cloud to make it 'go away'.  It's really expensive, too. 

So it's a little more scientific than just flying an airplane into a cloud and making it vanish.  They don't tie a lasso around it and pull it away... oh no.  They fly into this thing the day BEFORE the wedding, drop some "silver iodine" into it, which then makes the cloud turn into rain and fall to the ground.  Hopefully, it dries up over night so you can have sunshine at your wedding.

The first question is whether there is someone out there that would pay to have this done?  Isn't rain good luck on your wedding day?  And Chad had the best point of all.  TAKE IT INSIDE!!  IT'LL SAVE YOU A LOT OF MONEY.  However, if an outdoor wedding is a MUST HAVE and you don't want to run the risk of having soaking wet guests, give these guys a call.  I couldn't find a phone number, and I also have seen no records of anyone purchasing the service in the first place.   But if they DID, they would be paying $150,000.

Yes $150,000 to get rid of clouds so the sun will shine at your wedding.  Chad made another great point on the show.  What if the wind blows?  Wind moves quicker at higher altitudes.  Quick enough in fact to, oh... MOVE CLOUDS!  That's how they got there in the first place.  So you would have to do some serious weather watching leading up to the big day before you drop "nice house in a decent neighborhood" cash on cloud removal.  Because if there is a storm coming overnight that you didn't catch on the news.... then what are you going to do?  You're going to be grabbing a towel out of the closet is what you're going to be doing.

So... 150 stacks. What could you with that money other than remove clouds from the sky?

Let's have a look!!

-You could go on 35 extremely nice honeymoons.

-You could go to Paris for eight days150 times.

-You could park on a city street for 17 years straight (about 89 million minutes)

-You could buy his and hers Cadillacs and still have money left over for a down payment on a house.

-YOU COULD BUY A HOUSE

-37,500 Cups of Starbucks coffee

-Over 71,000 gallons of gas (assuming gas prices stay down)

-700,000 bananas

-300,000 Reese Cups

But if you don't fancy any of this stuff then go ahead and pay for cloud removal at your wedding or a different wedding.
