In case anyone missed the reference, it was to the Pixar movie "Up" where Carl (the curmudgeonly old man) uses tens of thousands of helium baloons to "fly" his house to South America...

 

See: http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/explainer/2009/06/how_many_balloons_would_it_take_to_lift_a_house.html

for an explanation of how many baloons would be required... :Big Grin:
