I'm sorry I think Nick Lentz has already done that one, at least grown a bonsai on a bowling ball. Hey I've got it!!! How about a chevy short block?

Bates once stood still for so long that a strangler fig was able to grow unchecked on his person. He was attempting to become one with his bonsai and was doing quite well until that idiot with the weed wacker hospitalized him for a few weeks. Will
