Well I funk allegiance to the Funk, to thee Almighty Funk-a-Funkadelica. And evidently the capital of Funkadelica is right in our nation's capital, so I can finally claim dual citizenship of both countries!

Presumably, to fit the massive aluminum vessel into the museum complex, the curators will advise the need to tear the roof off the sucker.

Drat. Won't be on display until 2015. Thought I had a destination for the family trip to DC next week.

I almost missed this. I really needed a little P-Funk moment right now. I love the Smithsonian for doing this.
