Ladies ignore this post!!

Alright guys, we have all done things that seemed to work out better in our heads, right, RIGHT? So....before I act on this, um, thought, I'd like to find out if I am the first to ever think of this.

While sitting under my awning contemplating life mysteries, in no particular order, and wishing I had a portable hammock, it seems a waist that the awning only be used as a awning.

My question is...

1) What is the weight limit of said awning?

2) Can said awning hold up a hammock??

3) Can said awning hold up a hammock with me in it???
